On December 19, 1991 — The Baltimore Orioles sign  P Rick Sutcliffe as a free agent to a 2 year $3.3M deal with another $1.6M in incentives. The former 1984 Cy Young Award winner was 6-5 with a 4.10 era with the Cubs last season the Cubs decline to offer him a contract due to recurring arm problems.
