So far what i have heard from orioles hangout it is hairston, crouthers and fontenot. Crouthers and fontenot are two of their top ten prospects.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 10:49 PM) Dubois/Burnitz. Are you saying if and when they sign burnitz?

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 10:12 PM) ESPNews has it in its right hand corner. "Cubs will trade Sosa to Orioles" Doesn't Sosa have to waive his no trade clause? Two posts up.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 09:21 PM) There is still alot of money to be tossed around in the deal, and it was reported that the O's wanted Huff. If all it took were prospects to get him, why wouldn't the D'Rays trade him to Baltimore? (Yes I realize they are in the division, but if the O's are willing to overpay....) Exactly, and it's not really like either or is gonna be competing for the playoffs next year. This is pissing me off and i am not even an orioles fan.

Well, the orioles fans are so pissed now it's not even funny. http://www.orioleshangout.com/forums/index.php?

The orioles message board has a 163 page thread and a 150 users on. That is way past the normal for them.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 07:59 PM) Which is kinda scary. What happens when this team wins 75 games in 05? Everett(buyout), Shingo(FA), Konerko(FA), and Vizcaino(FA) are the only ones who I can think of off the top of my head who we get out from under (unless guys like Harris, Pierz, Crede, Gload, perez aren't picked back up). We've resigned ourselves to this new style of play for the next couple years. This experiment has the opportunity to really blow up in KW's face. He'd take the team back down to '98/99 levels. I don't think vizcaino is a free agent. http://www.mlb4u.com/0506FA.html http://kmbumb.people.wm.edu/ Edit: It is his second year of arbitration.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 07:39 PM) I'm definitely taking a wait and see approach, which I feel is justified when a team rids itself of two of its top 5 players. We have SERIOUS health concerns with Hernandez, Thomas, and Dye (although not as much him). If we are able to avoid major injuries I think we have a shot. Still, I will pick the Twins if I had to bet my life. I feel this is a "throw against the wall" type year and we'll get what we need in 06 to make the playoffs for sure in 06. BTW, who is gone after this year? I know Konerko, AJ, Judy, and Shingo are up. Anyone else to resign? We have pierz's rights along with garland next year.

QUOTE(NeneCPK @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 05:35 PM) Same IP because we live together, and he won't be put in his place cause he won't let me do it LOL. Test. Jon garland sucks ass and rowand needs to be benched the entire year.

Maybe you don't gotta think you know it all.... I have never said that or implied that. Also, what is up with the quote?

QUOTE(JoshPR @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 05:15 PM) QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 10:45 PM) Why? So you don't gotta read my hate full posts, Damn I tought it waould be easy for you to figure out, I see not Maybe you could just not b**** about everyone new or every poll? Apparently not.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 04:46 PM) I thought he was talking about Luis Gonzalez. I don't think so. Before last year he has 8 straight years of 140 games or more played.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 04:43 PM) I think we obsess too much over what other's think. I like what KW has done. I just think we should have gotten more for Lee. Kolb + Pods. Too bad by the time we did the deal kolb was no longer on the brewers.

QUOTE(JoshPR @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 04:39 PM) Take my Advice... PLEASE! Why?

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 04:02 PM) Not quite my kid, being 17 and single and all that good stuff. I can see that being your kid actually.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 03:49 PM) Whoa, when you think of all the UNC/Duke games and the other big games that ESPN has had thats suprising. Probally because two pretty impressive streaks were on the line.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 03:28 PM) As long as Anthrax is picking and choosing half season stats for first basemen, how about Delgado's first half in 2004? But don't it's not how you start, it's how you finish. :headshake

QUOTE(JoshPR @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 11:11 AM) A lil thing on the right side of you screen called Scroll bar... USE IT Haha.

Low risk high reward type signing. Good move.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Jan 28, 2005 -> 02:19 PM) Their rotation has the most potential in the division and one of the top 3 in the AL. Maroth and Bonderman have electric stuff...all they need is time. Ledezma definitely has better ''stuff'' than maroth.
