June 27, 2008 Brandon Fahey has been recalled from Triple-A Norfolk, according to the AP. To make room on the roster, the club optioned infielder Oscar Salazar to Norfolk. Our View:Fahey only hit .200 over 25 at-bats in his previous stint with the Orioles this season, and shouldn't push Alex Cintron from the starting gig at shortstop. |

April 29, 2008 Brandon Fahey has been optioned to Triple-A Norfolk, according to the AP. The team called up pitcher Garrett Olsen from Norfolk to make a start in place of the injured Adam Loewen tonight against the Rays, and felt Fahey was expendable to free up a roster spot. Our View:Fahey registered five hits over 25 brief at-bats for Baltimore this season. |

March 17, 2008 Brandon Fahey still is uncertain about whether he can unseat Luis Hernandez to start at shortstop for the O's, according to the Baltimore Sun. "I still don't know what they think," he said. "I don't know if they want me as more of a utility guy or a shortstop or second base or whatever. Or if I'll get sent down. I don't know." Manager Dave Trembley wasn't exactly helpful in clearing things up, saying, "We're going to find out the next two weeks." Hitting .300 this spring, Fahey appears to have closed the gap between himself and Herndandez, but he's going to have to keep performing well the next couple of weeks to pull it off. |

March 1, 2008 As expected, Brandon Fahey returned to action Friday after missing the previous day's exhibition game because he had fluid drained from his thigh, according to the Baltimore Sun. "The bruise went away, but it still swelled up, so they just drained the fluid that was in there. It's fine. It doesn't hurt at all," he said. "It was just calcium deposits or something. They figured it was better to drain it. It didn't hurt when it was swollen." It appears this was just a minor malady, and he should be good to go. Fahey started at shortstop and went 0-for-2 on Friday. |

February 29, 2008 Brandon Fahey was not available for Thursday's exhibition contest, because he had fluid drained from his thigh, according to the Baltimore Sun. "That is something he did last year and it wasn't a painful situation; it didn't inhibit him from playing," manager Dave Trembley said. It must be a minor ailment, because Fahey is expected to take part in Friday's contest. |
