Happy Opening Day, O's fans.
As the 2009 season gets underway, here is your Orioles Opening Day Reader, featuring articles about each of the members of the team's (projected) starting lineup and "the skipper brave and sure."

In addition, you can't spell overweight (CC), overrated (Jeter), old (most of the team), on-the-juice (A-Rod) or overpaid (Teixeira et al) without a big ol' O. What a great win. Thanks, O's!
