Orioles evaluating options and there's very legit possibility that Brian Roberts (headaches) goes to DL.

Concussion-related?

Him and manram might end up with the same fate this year

Hearing he'll be out 3 weeks to a month with his concussion symptoms. I'm just curious of the feelings of other Roberts owners. With a concussion prognosis making it impossible to even remotely guarantee that he'll be back in 3 weeks or a month or even this season (see Morneau, Bay 2010), is he a stash or trash? He's had multiple concussions, this one occurred from a mere dive back into 1st, and he seemed to be on a modest decline prior to the injury.

I have him on 4 teams and with so many other reserve spots being filled by injured players with more reliable return dates, part of me is tempted to just cut the cord and move on.

very troubling that he has problems for a 2nd year in a row. if you need roster space, i'd dump him. if you can roster him for a month or two, i'd hold him.

i only have him in 1 league (slow draft), so i can't drop him
