| Player Notes |
| November 22, 2007 The Mets just traded for Johnny Estrada, but the Baltimore Sun is reporting that it's possible the team could non-tender Estrada next month. If they do, they could rekindle trade talks with the Orioles for Ramon Hernandez. |
| November 15, 2007 The Mets recently expressed interest in Ramon Hernandez, but the Orioles were asking for a high-end prospect in return, which is more than the Mets were willing to give up, according to the Baltimore Sun. As things stand now, it looks like the Mets plan to sign both Ramon Castro and Yorvit Torrealba to split duties behind the plate. |
| August 27, 2007 Ramon Hernandez was given a routine day off Sunday to rest. He should be back in the lineup after Monday's off-day for the Orioles, according to the Baltimore Sun. Hopefully the break will help him break out of an ugly slump, during which he's gone 0-for-24 and 1-for-40. |
| June 22, 2007 The Orioles activated Ramon Hernandez off the disabled list on Friday. He had missed the last two weeks with a bruised groin. Hernandez should be returned to your fantasy lineup as soon as next week. |
| June 18, 2007 Ramon Hernandez has been cleared for all activities, as he continues his rehab from a bruised groin. He's expected to come off the disabled list when eligible, according to the Baltimore Sun. Barring a setback, it should be safe to put Hernandez back in your lineups on Friday. |

| June 8, 2007 The Orioles placed Ramon Hernandez on the 15-day DL on Friday with a bruised groin, according to the AP. Hernandez was hit by a foul ball off the bat of Seattle's Ben Broussard in the ninth inning of the Orioles' 9-5 win on Wednesday. |
| June 8, 2007 Ramon Hernandez had x-rays of his groin that came back negative. The Washington Post reports that his injury is probably a bruise. That still doesnt sound like much fun, but Hernandez may be able to play this weekend. |

| April 26, 2007 The Orioles activated Ramon Hernandez from the DL Thursday, according to Sports Network. Hernandez has sat out the whole year with an oblique injury.

Alberto Castillo was designated for assignment to make room on the roster. |
| April 26, 2007 Ramon Hernandez, who is recovering from a strained left oblique, was 1-for-4 with a double in his rehab appearance yesterday, according to the Baltimore Sun. It's possible that he could rejoin the Orioles on Thursday. |
| April 24, 2007 Ramon Hernandez, who has yet to play this year due to a strained oblique, will report to Single-A Frederick today for a rehab assignment, according to the Baltimore Sun. He could be activated Thursday, unless he needs more time. "It's going to be up to him," manager Sam Perlozzo said. "He's been pretty good with telling us that he needs a little more time, a little more time. And we're certainly going to do what he says because when we get him back, we want him back for good." |
| April 23, 2007 Ramon Hernandez is slated to catch six innings in a rehab game on Tuesday, according to the AP. He'll take part in another game Wednesday, and if all goes well, he'll come off the disabled list the next day. "If we get lucky, we'll have him by Thursday," manager Sam Perlozzo said. He's recovering from a strained left oblique and is experiencing the most pain when he swings a bat. |
| April 22, 2007 The Baltimore Sun reports that Ramon Hernandez most likely will play two or three rehab games before being activated off the disabled list. He's recovering from a strained left oblique. |

| April 18, 2007 Ramon Hernandez might need a short minor league rehab assignment before being activated from the disabled list, the AP reports. He resumed taking batting practice Tuesday, coming back from a strained left oblique. "He just feels it a little bit," manager Sam Perlozzo said |
| April 17, 2007 Ramon Hernandez, who is on the DL with a strained left oblique, took batting practice on Tuesday for the first time since getting hurt, according to the AP. Although there is a chance he might play Wednesday, manager Sam Perlozzo made it sound like Friday was a more likely option. |
| April 17, 2007 Ramon Hernandez, on the disabled list with a strained oblique muscle, reported no pain after hitting a couple of sets of 25 soft tosses on Monday, according to the Baltimore Sun.

| April 16, 2007 Ramon Hernandez will join the Orioles on Tuesday to take batting practice, according to the Baltimore Sun. On the disabled list with a strained left groin, Hernandez could be activated as soon as Tuesday or Wednesday. |
| April 15, 2007 Ramon Hernandez began hitting balls off a tee on Saturday, according to the Baltimore Sun. Manager Sam Perlozzo said there's a chance that Hernandez could begin taking batting practice tomorrow. The catcher is recovering from a strained left oblique. |
| April 13, 2007 Ramon Hernandez, on the DL with a strained left oblique, was pain-free yesterday for the first time and could start hitting off a tee or doing a soft toss as early as Saturday, according to the Baltimore Sun. The club is hopeful he could play at some point in the three-game series against the Devil Rays that starts Monday. He's eligible to come off the DL on Sunday. |
| April 11, 2007 Although Ramon Hernandez is eligible to come off the disabled list Sunday, the O's may wait until Monday to activate him, according to the Baltimore Sun. "Ramon had a little progress yesterday," manager Sam Perlozzo said. "He's got minimal discomfort. He's on a throwing and conditioning program." Hernandez is recovering from a strained left oblique. |
| April 8, 2007 The Orioles placed Ramon Hernandez on the 15-day disabled list Sunday with a strained left oblique, according to the AP. The move is retroactive to March 31, meaning he'll be eligible to return on April 15. Paul Bako and Alberto Castillo will continue to see action behind the plate while Hernandez is out. |
| April 7, 2007 There is no new news on Ramon Hernandez, who has yet to play this season due to a strained left oblique, according to the Baltimore Sun. Hernandez still hasn't taken batting practice, and if he's unable to do so this weekend, he'll likely be placed on the disabled list. "It's not been an ideal situation up to this point," manager Sam Perlozzo said. "He probably could go out there. I am sure he could go in the game tonight and pinch hit. I feel that comfortable, but I think [the pain] is still there. We're just being awfully cautious." |
| April 6, 2007 Ramon Hernandez sat out again Friday and might be headed to the DL because of a strained left oblique, according to the AP. "If we get through this series and nothing happens, then I'll have to consider it," manager Sam Perlozzo said. "We're being real careful with him. We don't want to lose him for a long time." |
| April 5, 2007 Ramon Hernandez still hasn't been able to swing a bat and is looking more and more doubtful to play this weekend at New York the Orioles official site reports. Hernandez, sidelined by a strained left oblique, would likely have to take a few days of batting practice before the Orioles would consider slotting him into the lineup. If he's unable to hit by Friday or Saturday, the club may even place him on the disabled list; manager Sam Perlozzo wouldn't commit to a timeline on Wednesday, but he admitted the DL is a distinct possibility. |
| April 4, 2007 Ramon Hernandez remains several days from returning to the lineup, the Baltimore Sun reports. He's dealing with an oblique injury and didn't take batting practice Tuesday. It's doubtful he'll do any hitting until the team is in New York later this week. |
| April 3, 2007 Ramon Hernandez is expected to miss the rest of the series against the Twins with his oblique injury, according to the Baltimore Sun. "I can swing, but it hurts," Hernandez said. "It's getting better. I'll probably be out for a few days, hopefully three or four days. Who knows? Tomorrow, if I'm feeling good, I'll start swinging the bat." Paul Bako will start at catcher while Hernandez is sidelined. |
| April 2, 2007 Ramon Hernandez was scratched from Monday's lineup with an oblique strain, according to the AP. "We're going to be a little cautious with him. He's available, but we just want to make sure it's not a long-term thing," manager Sam Perlozzo said. The club purchased the Alberto Castillo's contract from Triple-A Norfolk for insurance. |
| March 17, 2007 Ramon Hernandez made his spring debut at first base on Friday, according to the Baltimore Sun. "It's fun once in a while," Hernandez said. "When you start the game, you don't have to worry about how you're going to call the game. You just stretch, get loose and play. It's totally different when you're a catcher. You get loose, you're thinking about what you're going to call, you meet with the pitcher. There's a lot of thinking. But when you're playing first, you go out without thinking nothing." He played two games at first base last year, and he's really not expected to see any more time there this year. |
