Orioles agree to terms with Jamie Moyer

[orioles119]

What is B.J. Surhoff up too? Can we send him to Norfolk too?

[Camden_yardbird]

Maybe he can teach Tillman how to pitch.

[blid]

Rickey Henderson anyone?

He can still draw walks and steal bases. Possible leadoff hitter?

I'm not even an old dude, but I am strangely excited myself.

Me either. He was pitching in the majors 7 years before I was even born!

Jamie Moyer was actually drafted 8 years before Dylan Bundy was born. He hadn't even reached his first birthday when Moyer made his first start for the Orioles back in '93.

I remember when Moyer pitched a complete-game shutout against the Mets in June of 1988.

The next day, the back page of the NY Daily News read "MOYER DESTROYER."

Can we coax Mussina out of retirement? Hey, it's working with Pettitte .

[BobbyWoontz]

Does he turn 50 this season? That is the only reason I would bring him to Baltimore, for the novelty factor alone.

November 18, 1962, he'll be 50. You might see him wear #50 if the O's bring him up, his number with the Rockies.

Is it April Fools Day?

Is it 1993?

I feel like I'm in a time capsule. Jamie Moyer was one of my favorite Orioles when I was 8 years old.

Nah, he's too far removed from the game. Conine on the other hand...

DD certainly is more entertaining than MacPhail.

lol at this crazy game.

Brady. Definitely Brady.

Good idea.

Also wondering if they are thinking of Moyer as a longman or LOOGY (or middle reliever who will allow Patton to be more of a LOOGY), despite the fact he's started almost his entire career. We've seen how important it is to play the percentages against the AL East's lefty sluggers.

Maybe the O's will call up that youngster Lew Ford now.

Terrible makeup issues.

C'mon Jose Canseco...any day now.
