Nate McLouth told reporters Friday that he hopes to return with the Orioles next season. McLouth was the Orioles' everyday left fielder after being released by the Pirates midseason. Coming off strong finish to 2012, he could draw interest on the free agent market. With Nick Markakis (wrist) and Nolan Reimold (neck) expected to be medically cleared for spring training, the Orioles may view McLouth as expendable, depending on his contract demands.
