December 8, 200520 yr This is supposedly posted @ ESPN.com somewhere but I can't get the link to work...the Orioles have signed former Padre catcher Ramon Hernandez to a 4 year deal worth $27.25 million. Great deal if the guy can stay healthy. Gigantic if. Lopez will presumably move to DH most of the time.
December 8, 200520 yr Author Here is the official link, now that it's working. The Baltimore Orioles and catcher Ramon Hernandez reached a preliminary agreement on a $27.25 million, four-year contract. Hernandez hit .290 with 12 home runs and 58 RBI with the San Diego Padres in 2005. The Orioles' 2005 catcher Javy Lopez hit .278 with 15 home runs and 59 RBI. The deal is subject to a physical and probably won't be finalized until next week.
December 8, 200520 yr s***, Javy is going to DH all the time, or possibly are they going to make a move for pitching?
December 9, 200520 yr Do the Orioles know that pitching is part of baseball? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> When was the last time they had an actually SP who was worth a damn?

December 9, 200520 yr Mike Mussina probably. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Bernard looks decent before the injury I am hoping that he can get his s*** together.. but in all seriousness, what if they are thinking like us.. Look at the difference AJ made to our staff.. the O's have a young staff.. Just a thought.

December 9, 200520 yr Hernandez handles pitchers well and should help their pitching staff. Javy may get some pt at 1B.
December 9, 200520 yr QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Dec 9, 2005 -> 04:43 PM) When was the last time they had an actually SP who was worth a damn? Leo Mazzone.
December 9, 200520 yr Leo Mazzone. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Erik B (f*** that trying to spell it) is going to win the Cy Young!
