Hows this for a wacky, unrealistic blockbuster...

[Little Slide Rooter]

Cubs get

Miguel Tejada

Eric Bedard

Nick Markakis

 

O's get

Mark Prior

Ryan Theriot

Felix Pie

Sean Marshall

Matt Murton

Don Veal or Samardzia.

 

It would be nice. I mean the Os may as well dump those guys for youngins, as they wont be able to compete with the Yanks, Red Sox, and even Blue Jays any time soon.

I think the O's laugh us out of the room. Markakis is their franchise player.

It is hot stove season, we have real scenarios to discuss now.

Take out Markakis and that deal might work.

 

Also, Jeff Samardzija has a NTC. I don't know how much he'd like being shipped off to Baltimore.

Pass it on over brother.

How the hell does an incredibly unproven 21 year old end up with a no trade clause? The guys college stats weent even impresive.

It's unrealistic all right....

Most players don't have the leverage of a 10 million dollar NFL deal sitting there if they don't sign with the Cubs.

If Baltimore is really looking to dump Tejada's salary and would accept a less desirable package for Bedard to get it done, then I think we have a chance. But no way Markakis is included.
