2004 - Silver Slugger (AL) (3B)
Thursday, October 29, 2009
News: The Orioles have declined their $8 million option on Mora, which will allow him to become eligible for free agency, the Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Mora has likely played his last game as an Oriole, and will probably try to latch on with a contender as the sunset of his career approaches.
Monday, August 10, 2009
News: Mora has cleared waivers, according to the Baltimore Sun, which means he could be traded during August.
Analysis: Mora's role has decreased and his stock has dropped significantly. Even if he gets moved he would likely play off the bench for a competitor.
