"Orioles injured second baseman Brian Roberts didn't board a plane today headed for Sarasota, Fla., like he originally planned in order to begin his rehab program for the herniated disk in his back.

Roberts, instead, was at a Baltimore area hospital, where he was diagnosed with pneumonia. I don't know much more than that because I haven't been able to reach Roberts or his agent, Mark Pieper. I'm not sure if he has been released or not, but it sounds like Roberts is doing better.

"We don't anticipate that it's going to be anything that impacts his rehabilitation schedule," Orioles president of baseball operations Andy MacPhail said."
