Ponson going back to Baltimore?

[Lefty]

Big blow to the Giants if he goes back to Baltimore.

The Baltimore Sun reports the Orioles are also close to bringing Sidney Ponson back into the fold.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After narrowing the gap with their latest offer, team officials said they were hopeful they could re-sign Ponson to a contract very similar to the three-year, $21 million deal he turned down before they traded him to the San Francisco Giants at the end of July

This is no surprise. I think the talk was that this would happen anyways, that he really didn't want to be traded, but for the betterment of the organization it was done.
