According to the official website, the Orioles 40 man roster is currently down to 32, following some reshuffling. Injured players Adam Jones, Koji Uehara and Brad Bergesen will have a spot on the 40 man come Spring.

Fiorentino, Hill, Miller, Lambert, McCrory, Rodriquez, and Simon were all assigned to AAA Norfolk after clearing waivers. Mora and Moeller are free agents. Sean Henn was claimed by the Toronto Blue Jays.

Since they are not on the 40 man, the outrighted players make decline assignment and opt for free agency or risk being picked up by another club.

Here is a bio of each of the departing players, in two words or less.

Jeff Fiorentino – good luck

Sean Henn – Jays again???!!

Jim Miller - AAAA

Chad Moeller – backup 2010?
