Source: O's working on Fernando Rodney...

my thoughts exactly... and I was trying to think of a polite way to say it

I wonder if she has one of those tatoos stamped on the small of her back. What do they call those things?

Thanks. They have to sign Rodney now, due to the botched Balfour signing. It's a save face signing.

I can confirm that the Orioles have increased their efforts to sign closer Fernando Rodney. Talks are heating up, according to sources.

They'll cool right back down if he's still looking for $10 million per season.

Talks increased right after Tampa signed Balfour? That would confirm it's a reactionary move.

Britney Ghiroli already said the Rodney rumors are exaggerated. Roch got caught up in his Twitter source again I assume.

So he's in Baltimore signing his contract now? Roch never puts stuff like this out there.

He would need to fly to Baltimore to sign the contract? I would think they can fax it or something.

So he signed with the Rays? (Balfour)

Wasn't the Rays outspoken dr (one of them) from TB? If so, they put their money where their mouths were...

I predict a good year for Balfour and egg on our face.

Just wondering how many times he'll close the door on us this season... But whatever. Also possible his arm falls off in his third appearance...

It's possible that he will be bad for a while before it appears evident that their is some injury.

Or he's lights out for two years. If people thought Rodney was annoying after a save, wait until Balfour rubs it in the Orioles face after a save.

This will make for some good baseball hopefully. Guess we'll see.
