July 8, 200916 yr Felix Pie for Fields? Come the f*** on. Just DFA Fields if that's the case. Per MLBTR.
July 8, 200916 yr Not exactly the best source there clearly, what the hell do we need Pie for? Sounds like a bunch of BS. No worries.

July 8, 200916 yr Author MLBTR doesn't make s*** up. Other writers do, and they report it. This is from the Baltimore Sun.
July 8, 200916 yr i was ecstatic when the cubs got rid of him bcuz i was tired of the media talking about him and his struggles..and to think he might come here? ugh
July 8, 200916 yr I'm just going to assume this is nothing more than someone suggesting a trade of those two players, and MLBTR looking too far into it. It'd be completely indefensible move. And not even "this must be a precursor to another move" crowds could justify it, because really, there's no way it's a precursor to anything but throwing Pie on the bench or down to Charlotte.
July 8, 200916 yr QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 10:45 PM) When one Brian Anderson just isn't enough. Pie is a bit more toolsy then BA, but yeah, your point is sound.
July 8, 200916 yr Author http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/orioles...0,5313097.story According to sources, the Orioles discussed Pie with the Chicago White Sox in a potential deal revolving around third baseman Josh Fields, but it's not known how much interest, if any, the White Sox still have in the outfielder.
July 8, 200916 yr Pie is terrible and out of options. Another bust Cubs positional prospect?? No Way!
July 8, 200916 yr "Please don't do this"... My thoughts EXACTLY when I saw this come across MLBTR.... sounds old and won't happen
July 8, 200916 yr Here is the story FWIW... http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/orioles...0,5313097.story Pie, the 24-year-old outfielder who has started just three of the Orioles' past 21 games, is eight for his past 20 with four RBIs while getting limited at-bats with the emergence of rookie Nolan Reimold in left field. According to sources, the Orioles discussed Pie with the Chicago White Sox in a potential deal revolving around third baseman Josh Fields, but it's not known how much interest, if any, the White Sox still have in the outfielder.

July 8, 200916 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 09:49 PM) Do the Sox really need Pie at this point? Not unless they really hate DeWayne Wise or Brian Anderson...
July 8, 200916 yr They can play Fields at 1st, 3rd and LF. Pie can't do that. There is no other backup 1B close to the majors now unless you count Flowers or Cook.

There is no other backup 1B close to the majors now unless you count Flowers or Cook. I'd much rather see Flowers than Fields... Fields has much better potential at this point than Pie. If Fields just gets rid of that stupid hitch before he swings, he'd actually hit a damn fastball and hit some homers.
July 8, 200916 yr This could've been originally been an idea when Wise was on the DL. Before the second coming of Scotty Pods. At this point...ain't gonna happen.
July 8, 200916 yr QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 11:13 PM) You have a better idea to find Colon? touche' EDIT: Well, we already have Bacon...
