O's making trade (O's acquire Thome)

from Roch on Twitter

Hearing from source outside #orioles that club on verge of completing trade and could be announced postgame. FYI: Thome not in Phils' lineup

Add another DH onto the pile. If this goes through, I wonder what we gave up?

I just can't see it being Thome...we don't need another no field player.

[crissfan172]

I really don't see the point of adding another DH to a team full of them.

More than likely, it'd be a PTBNL.

[Frobby]

Gregg out of here maybe?

[xian4]

Apparently, it is Thome, another source confirms.

Jim Salisbury on Twitter

Source tells me Phillies and Orioles are talking seriously about a deal involving Jim Thome. Thome still with Phils in Miami

Gregg out of here maybe?

Hope springs eternal!

[nevadaO]

Thome is not in the lineup vs. the LHP Buehrle, if that matters.

[crissfan172]

I'm actually SHOCKED by how good Thome's numbers have been the last couple of years. Incredible OPS's for a 40 year old.

[nevadaO]

K's about once every 3 at bats, so he'll fit right in...

[fernandodfcosta]

Can we get this Soo Choo guy?

[Beach86]

MLB trade rumors are saying thome as well. Maybe this is to have a full time dh and get rid of Reynolds. They said the orioles haven't much production out of Luke Scott and hideki matsui.lol

Trade is Thome for minor leaguers, no names yet.

Wow...that's terrible. I am flattered, though, that we've been mistaken for Tampa Bay.
