Baltimore Orioles
 PROFILE
Despite a high payroll and the presence of Iron Man Cal Ripken (record holder for consecutive games played), the Baltimore Orioles are a wounded bird. The team has finished near the bottom of the American League East the past few seasons, plus the team lost star outfielder Albert Belle to injuries before the 2001 season. Ripken has also announced he'll retire at the end of the 2001 campaign. In addition to majority owner Peter Angelos, the team's minority owners include author Tom Clancy and his ex-wife Wanda, filmmaker Barry Levinson, sportscaster Jim McKay, and tennis player Pam Shriver. The team moved to Baltimore in 1954 after previous incarnations as the St. Louis Browns (1902-53) and Milwaukee Brewers (1901).
