This move will likely end Mora's nine-year tenure with the franchise.

There was no such luck this season, as the 37-year-old showed signs of age and decline, producing his worst numbers since the start of the decade. Mora's days of regular playing time appear to be over, and the Orioles have expressed little interest in re-signing him as a bench bat. Minus another move, Ty Wigginton stands the best chance of taking over at the hot corner. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Melvin_Mora/582465 582465 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 1:20:14 EDT mlb.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Melvin_Mora/582465 Orioles | Slumping Mora sits The Associated Press reports Baltimore Orioles 3B Melvin Mora, who is stuck in a 2-for-24 slump, was out of the lineup Sunday, Sept. 27. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Melvin_Mora/552975 552975 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 9:40:02 EDT kffl.com http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Melvin_Mora/552975 It appears almost certain that Mora and the Orioles will part ways after the season, the Baltimore Sun It appears almost certain that Mora and the Orioles will part ways after the season, the Baltimore Sun reports.
