Jason Churchill on the Radio

[orioles77]

Churchill just said he would not trade Adam Jones straight up for Erik Bedard.

[millartime15]

Interesting........

Churchill says he wouldnt even do the deal straight up

Anyway, get this done! Im so excited about Adam Jones coming here!

[Jik]

Churchill knows what he's talking about. He's just coming off extremly intelligent.

[WebLink21]

He really doesn't like letting Jones go. haha

[Ruzious]

I'd pass on Mikilio. We've already got a surplus of solid arms his age. Butler would be a much better fit for the O's - high ceiling youngster who won't take up a roster spot.

[Sports Guy]

This is a great deal for the Mariners...You can argue that they can't contend with Bedard and that you should keep Jones because of it but the deal itself is worse than what Haren got and Bedard is much better than Haren.

[utvolzac]

Wow, if it's 4 for 1 and half the package is relief pitching, my head might explode.

[Peace21]

The O's need to win games too. So if you want Bedard, we want exactly the same type of star caliber player.

[Peace21]

Blah blah blah...the whole 200 innings thing needs to stop

[minnesotaoriole]

update- YES TRADE WILL HAPPEN!! HE SAYS

[jerios55]

Said he thinks it is done either way.

[Jik]

yeah he's making jokes about the angelos source, and JONES IS ON HIS WAY TO BALTIMORE RIGHT NOW.

[StunninSteve]

Jones should get here later this afternoon

I agree, I don't like these rumors. I'd rather have Votto & Bailey straight up than this package.

The way they are talking either half the Bedard package is going to be relief pitching or A ball pitchers. Way to much risk on our part, IMO.

Relief pitching shouldn't even be a consideration for us and we have plenty of young pitching depth as is. WHERE ARE THE FREAKING BATS.

Agreed, if Balentein does well, there's not a huge need for Jones. Tillman and Butler are a long way from helping anyone. And Sherrill is just a loogy for them. They've helped themselves tremendously at the major league level, and they still have some quality prospects in their system.
