It's Orioles Day at dark and stormy-looking Port Charlotte where all four minor-league exhibitions are scheduled to be played today.
Baltimore's minor-league complex in Sarasota is in bad shape, bad enough that other teams consider it a "safety issue," one Rays official told me, and refuse to play there. Hence, the Orioles minor-leaguers have to travel every day. Oddly, Baltimore's major-league complex is in Fort Lauderdale, which is problematic, to say the least.
There's also an early start, 10 a.m. Central, and it's Tampa Bay's final minor-league exhibition. They have intrasquad games Saturday and Sunday. Here are today's Rays lineups ...

What's happening with Catcher MARK THOMAS? Is he slated to repeat the season at Hudson Valley? Also, noticing that Henry Wrigley has been playing a lot at left field, while Cody Cipriano is at first...change for Cipriano occuring there?
