Orioles add Lindstrom to closer mix
The Baltimore Orioles got Matt Lindstrom (RHP, BAL) in trade from the Colorado Rockies, and as an experienced closer, he will give them another ninth-inning option.

Does he have the skills to challenge Jim Johnson (RHP, BAL) as closer in Baltimore? Let’s take a look.
