Wade Miller to the Orioles???

[HoopsCubs]

One of my sources from the East Coast is hearing a rumor that the Orioles are talking to the Cubs and Mariners about acquiring either Wade Miller or Jeff Weaver. After moving Adam Loewen to the 60 day DL, the Orioles have a "huge sense of urgency" to fill the starting pitching void.

 

Last I heard, Wade threw the ball pain free, was probably going to do a minor league start or two and then be activated in about 10-12 days.

 

Hendry does have a recent history of trading with Baltimore.

The Orioles must have a "huge sense of suck" to want either of those pitchers.

[Garwilly]

A) THE RETURN OF BAKO!!

 

 

B) Ok, we'll take Tejada without Bedard now.

 

 

C) THE RETURN OF BYNUM!!

Maybe. Or maybe they think Leo Mazzone can make a positive impact on one or both of these guys.

Wade Miller for Corey Patterson

 

A- Corey isnt worth that much. His lifetime OBP is lower than Neifi Perez's now. The guy is just a bum.

 

B- We thankfully dont need more OFs.

 

C- I would become a Cardinal fan. (ok, i wouldnt...but i would be very very angry.)

 

 

On a happy note, Jon Leicester was one of the guys brought up to replace some of the Orioles DL cats. Nice to see him reappear after some serious type surgery. Hopefully he will do well.

Do we have to trade with them? Can't we just give them Miller and be done with it?

Really? Why not just bring up a guy from their minor leagues instead of trading for has-beens?

 

I mean, have you seen any Jeff Weaver games? He doing historically bad.

 

I guess I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but it seems even too stupid for the Orioles (and that's saying a lot).

Well, teams routinely very stupidly acquire crappy veteran pitchers instead of going with prospects. Maybe they don't want to expose a young guy this early.

yeah, he's a "bum" for not having a .400 OBP. man, he must eat fetuses in his spare time. i bet he's the cause of global warming, too! watch out everyone.... corey patterson is coming to eat your children, even those that are still in the womb. he and that "headcase" kyle farnsworth will probably team up. what will we do?

[WrigleyField 22]

Just give us some crappy prospect. Deal.

Yeah but its not even a .300 OBP. Its .297 for his career. That's pathetic and yes it makes him a bum

That's not anything close to what he said.

If JH can trade Miller for a living person, I will not bash him for a whole day.

Hey Hoops, thanks for sharing.

 

It's nice to get the inside scoop on the inside poop.

Don't forget that the bum doesn't care!

care to enlighten me?

His isn't even 300. His career OPS+ is 84, and his highest full-season OPS is below 800. He's just not good.

Sure.

Wade Miller for 3 wads of gum under the seats at Camden Yard.

Gotta be honest. This would make it worth it for me...:D

What about trading Sean Marshall to Balt. for some real prospects. Marshall is from the Virginia area and is pitching well in Iowa. I don't see him getting another shot for sometime and the Cubs could use him as a bargaining chip to get other prospects to fill other areas of need in the system--shortstop? I'm not for moving Marshall unless they can get something good in return.
