BALTIMORE — A person familiar with the situation says free-agent pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez and the Baltimore Orioles have agreed to a contract, pending a physical.The agreement is reportedly for about $50 million over four years.Jimenez went 13-9 with a 3.30 ERA in 32 starts for Cleveland last season. He turned down a $14.1 million qualifying offer from the Indians, so Baltimore would have to forfeit its first-round draft pick (17th overall) to sign him.

OWINGS MILLS, Md. — As a 20-year-old fresh out of college, Terrell Suggs never intended to spend his entire NFL career with one team. Now the Pro Bowl linebacker embraces the idea of going the distance as a Baltimore Raven.Suggs, 31, signed a four-year extension that saves the Ravens salary cap room and puts Suggs in position to finish his career in Baltimore.
