Another Roberts Update

[DiggetyDon]

Fresh off a text message:

"Patterson, Murton, Gallagher, Guzman"

Thats the latest offer from them to us.

Fire away.

[droper]

how fast do you say "Done!"

[Rockbird]

Do you have a "guy" too? I wish I had a....uh....never mind.

Who's Guzman? I guess if Pie is truly off limits that's a good deal. Adam Jones needs to come back for Bedard though to play CF. Sounds like teams are being stingy with their top prospects so we're going with a quantity approach hoping to get a bunch of mid to upper level guys and hope some work out.

Could we get Cedeno back too? We need a SS. Is Scott going to DH if Murton plays LF? Questions, questions...

[AgentOrange]

I love how all the information is coming via text message.

Angel Guzman

[AgentOrange]

Murton doesn't make sense because of Scott. I think I would like a SS prospect at some point though, unless Bedard can get that for us.

[Alphonse]

Eh, let 'em keep Murton and Guzman and add Pie. And if not, do the deal, drop Gallagher, and do the deal for Pie and Patterson.

And then, just for fun, give Corey a substantial contract so he signs, then tell him in spring training that he has to try to win a job at 2nd base over his brother, piss them both off, and subsequently drive the Pattersons outta baseball.

Nah, just kidding.

But seriously, I'd take Pie and Patterson for Roberts.

technology maaaannnn... This looks like a solid offer. How serious do you think they are about keeping Pie?

[BaltBird 24]

We'd be foolish to pass that deal up, if it has indeed been offered to us.

I have a Cubs guy, I dont have an Orioles guy, lol.

[Moose Milligan]

Wish we could get Pie back, but whatever...4 for Roberts?

If you give me your cell phone number, I'll send you text messages...and you can post them on here.

Very serious, they haven't given in to us asking for him.

[Mackus]

Overall value is fair, but I hold off for now. Murton is redundant with Scott now in the fold. We're certainly gonna get at least one OF for Bedard. I think we need to make that move before moving Roberts.

We really need to gauge the Rockies interest in Roberts.

[Birds08]

I think we have to wait until we trade Bedard before trading Roberts to see exactly what holes we need to fill. I also would shop Roberts to other clubs before trading him to the Cubs if they refuse to give us Pie.
