Mike Mussina played his first ten years in baseball (1991-00) with the Baltimore Orioles, and by his second season, the former USC Trojan was one of the better Pitchers in the American League. 

It takes a special kind of player to hit 3,000 Hits and 500 Home Runs over a career.  Eddie Murray was just that. 

At one time, we are going to do the greatest players of defunct/relocated teams.  When we get to the St. Louis Browns, it will be without question, George Sisler.  As the Browns relocated to Baltimore to become the Orioles, Sisler has his spot here, and we will have quite a few players on this list that never played professionally in Baltimore.

Signed as an amateur free agent in 1955, Brooks Robinson debuted that year in Baltimore as an 18-year old.  It was clear from the beginning that he was a wizard with the glove, but it took him some time to develop his hitting game.  In 1960, he did that, and throughout the decade and beyond, he was considered the best Third Baseman in the game.
