I've contributed to the speculation that the Orioles could non-tender outfielder Alejandro De Aza, who's projected by MLBTradeRumors.com to make $5.9 million next season. Well, I'm hearing that the Orioles have every intention of keeping De Aza, who could platoon in left field against right-handed pitching.

The Orioles haven't engaged in any formal talks with De Aza's representatives at this point, but it's early. The sides still need to exchange figures and negotiations will get serious after the Christmas holiday.

Great news. No good reason not to bring back De Aza at ~6 million.
