jaret Wright - Yes, If he can get healthy the O's will throw him out there.
Tim Raines, Jr. - maybe...I don't know a whole about him, but he could be a September call up.
Lance Niekro - Yes, he was a good player for the Giants for a while.
Sean Burroughs - No, he struggled the whole time he was in the bigs.
Sandy Alomar, Jr. - No. way too old to catch even as a backup.
Javy Lopez - Maybe as a DH or short term injury replacement.
Rickey Henderson - No, unless you count the publicity stunt Oakland wants to do as making it back.
Hideo Nomo - No, he didn't have it last time he came back.
Ben Grieve - No, he was always overrated to me.
Juan Gone - No, you've got to be kidding right??

Bernie - No, the Yankees don't want him and he won't play elsewhere.
Pokey - No, he was always horrible with the bat and still is.

Mike Hampton - Yes, and will promptly land back on the DL.
Carl Everett - No way, he didn't have it last time he tried.

Jacque Jones is playing for the Cubs. Betemit is playing for the Dodgers.
Hampton is under contract through 2008; if he's healthy, he'll pitch. I cannot imagine his team (currently the Braves) will pick up his 2009 option, though.

I-a-i, that's quite a list. Some of these are close calls, so I'll give my best guess; Burroughs, Niekro, B.Williams(I hear he wants to play, and I think someones gonna sign him),Choi, Kotsay, Le Croy, and Chen. Isn't Jones playing now?
