New News on Tejada Thread

[Andy]

espnews reports Tejada told Comcast Sports Net that he " is just frustrated with losing and wants the O's to concentrate on improving the pitching staff."

 

Looks like no trade.

 

Or perhaps the O's front office told him that they WILL trade him under the condition that Miggy comes out and denies that he demanded a trade. By doing so, it gives the O's a lot more leverage in trade talks.

Reeeeeeeach.

Rogers at it again

But here's what Cubs general manager Jim Hendry should be working to make happen: a trade for the perennial All-Star shortstop built around—gasp—Carlos Zambrano, followed immediately by the signing of a free-agent starter to take Zambrano's place in the rotation.

 

Because Kevin Millwood, Jarrod Washburn and Jeff Weaver won't be free agents forever, Hendry can't give Orioles counterpart Mike Flanagan long to ponder his options.

 

Hendry should offer Zambrano, center fielder Corey Patterson and shortstop Ronny Cedeno for Tejada and right-hander Daniel Cabrera or one of the Orioles' pitching prospects—Hayden Penn, John Maine or Adam Loewen. He should tell him the offer is good for only 72 hours, and then he should use those hours burning up the phone line to Scott Boras, who represents Millwood, Washburn and Weaver.

 

How this guy has a job is beyond me.

I wouldn't trade Carlos unless we got another player with Tejada.

[stitchface]

tomorrow he'll write about how pitching wins.

 

What happens when baltimore is 15 out at the ASB next year?

[CaliforniaRaisin]

I wouldn't trade Carlos unless we got another player with Tejada.

 

Named Nick Markakis.

Maybe, but it's not unthinkable. The O's saying "fine we'll give you what you want but you have to help us out in the process" is something that could happen.

Him and Chris Ray plz.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I would trade Z for Tejada under 1 condition. We could then trade Corey to the O's for Z. Other than that, there's no way I trade him.

Hahaha I agree.

[NorthsideAvenger]

Who thinks in trying to convince Tejada to stay....Angelos' will meet Boras' demand( 7yrs/$84 mill) on Johnny Damon? Then everybody will pronounce Angelos' is Boras' new ________ well, you get the hint. I think we are about to see Angelos overpay for a FA.

OK lets go back to talking about Abreu

Bruce Levine on ESPN Radio says that the Tejada talk is very real and that the Cubs are ready to go. I won't mention, however, what he says the Cubs might be willing to give up...

If true, another piece to the Hendry is not a good GM puzzle.

[Burtonbell]

Domingo Ramos, Luis Salazar, and super prospect Jeff Pico for Tejada?

No kidding. What's the point in posting half of something?

 

Who did Levine mention?

[Suffnekcow]

Domingo Ramos, Luis Salazar, and super prospect Jeff Pico for Tejada?

 

Mike Brumley, Angel Salazar and Paul Noce's complete lack of surprise.

[E.J.]

According to Levine it would cost...

 

Hill, KPat, Williams, Cedeno, and Guzman

 

Better than giving up Z or Prior. I'd be willing to give up those guys if it netted us Tejada.
