Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports that the Mariners and Orioles are moving closer to an agreement that will send LHP Erik Bedard out west. The Reds are also a candidate to land Bedard, but it appears the Mariners are willing to trade their top outfield prospect, Adam Jones, while the Reds will not part with their best minor-league outfielder, Jay Bruce.

The Mariners also are willing to include catcher Jeff Clement and third baseman Matt Tuiasosopo.
