Orioles Trade Targets?

[Can_of_corn]

Being reported that Mets will pay 2 Million of Colon's remaining salary.

If we get him and Suzuki are we legit contenders?

I don't know if those moves make the team better.

What about next years 10m he's owed.

My goodness....the Mets are so incredibly awful. It really takes talent to have a payroll that large and make that many horrible signings. The Mets make me sick.

Not sure about next year but Colon is pretty damn good. He's a guy that I would take to start in a must win game over probably any of our guys.

From ESPN..."After getting off to a slow start, Colon has posted a 2.98 ERA with a 62-to-14 K:BB ratio over his past 12 starts, encompassing 84.2 innings."

87 ERA+ this season.

Colon is 107 years old.

Pass.

P.S.-anyone in this thread would make a better GM than the Mets GM

Left bench.

Isn't tha position currently filled with our fourth outfielder, backup center fielder and our utility guy? Maybe Bobby D can help Howard fill one of those slots as well.

But he makes cool Subway commercials...

Phillies already said they'll eat a lot of that money. They want him gone.

Did they? I heard Ruben denied that.

No they are all on the right bench. Howard would serve to even out the bench.

Yeah-despite the jokes, I would consider it.

I think we should just make tons of moves because I like the trade deadline and I want to be entertained above all else-gosh darn it.

The two guys who have actual roles other Orioles that I mentioned are Left handed. I know, I mix that up with pitchers sometimes. But I am certain I am correct here.

There are rumors they may cut him..so I doubt that.

Winning baseball games doesn't entertain you?
