Dan Connolly is going to be on the Viviano show shortly...

[Black & Orange]

Baltimore's ESPN Radio 1300 on the Mark Viviano show... Doubt he'll have anything really new to say.

I'll post any tidbits...

[Frobby]

Well, did he say anything?

[Hank Scorpio]

Not really, no.

The media is in the dark on this one and it's driving them nuts.

[Black & Orange]

He had really no new updates... Here a few things he just noted on... Pretty much "blah" speak:

<b>Day 43... Finally close to resolution...

Wants to ask MacPhail: "What the 'heck' happened?"

Overall season has seemed more quiet than usual with all the teams because of the waiting of the "bigger" trades.

Talked about how obviously payroll will be lower with the significant moves that are hopefully taking place.</b>

[Who's On 1st]

Thanks for the update.

Im hearing the reason that there is a hold up is Angelos. My source didnt say what he is doing, but its because Angelos is in the middle of things. Plus Jones is back in Phoenix. I guess he is waiting for a phone call. An Bedard has yet to take his physical. We thought he would over the weekend, but some reason he is still in Canada. Ill have more soon.

Take it with a grain of salt.

Roch says he was in Seattle yesterday and will take his physical today.

Here comes the knee jerk reaction. Someone notify the authorities in Maine before JTrea goes bananas..

...and may I take my grain of salt with a glass of hemlock?

*sigh*

[Peace21]

We are also considering and playing around the thought that the hold up might mean, O's may trade Bedard and Roberts at same time? Obviously Roberts to the Cubs.

Yeah apparently bedard is still in canada after reports have him in seattle, who knows

I thought that this could be a possibility... we didn't hear the Roberts stuff until after it was confirmed that Seattle's guys had already taken their physicals.

This is certainly a possibility, IMO.

I'm not sure I would call anything this offseason obvious. It seems like everything changes direction 50 times before being completed.

I just re confirmed it with my guy, who has close ties with Bedard, and he said "No" he is not in Seattle.
