BALTIMORE (AP) - The Baltimore Orioles have bid farewell to Rafael Palmeiro and Sammy Sosa.
Both players struggled through troubling seasons this year, a big reason Orioles executive vice president Mike Flanagan says the team won't ask either slugger to return in 2006.
The 41-year-old Palmeiro, who reached the 3,000-hit milestone this year, has indicated he would like to play next season. But after a season in which he was suspended for using steroids before implicating teammate Miguel Tejada, the Orioles no longer want him around.
