@JonHeymanCBS: sources: orioles are closing in on a deal with cuban lhp ariel miranda (Done deal)

Cabral has been good in our AAA bullpen. No one knew who this kid was until 20 minutes ago. Long term this kid gets the nod - as a replacement for Matusz I would use Cabral. I have no hope that Wesley Wright will be anywhere near good this season.

I think just the fact that I have seen Cabral fail with other teams was my only prejudice.

Some good' date=' not great numbers in seven seasons. But he's 6'3" and only 168! Does he eat?[/quote']

Between this guy and the lhp we traded for from the Astros, perhaps DD views string beam pitchers who could fill out as the next market inefficiency...

He's trying to save on meal money.

You have the right to return to the dug out.

I wonder if Ramon Martinez has looked at these fellows.

That's not true. He has been in the majors with the Yankees before. His major league record is certainly less than stellar. Plenty of people know about him here.

I think the "no one knew who this kid was until 20 minutes ago" referred to Ariel Miranda.

Good depth signing. System is a little thin at the top in LH pitchers. Mac, Cabral,Jones,McCoy and Berry is pretty much it. Lee and this guy help.

It is almost as if PA made a deal with Castro to sign every marginal Cuban player that hit the market.

What a softball COC. I'll see that and raise you a picture of the meeting

Incidentally, if we sign a bunch of marginal Cuban players to minor league deals I'm 100% cool with it. Make more competition at every level. :thumbsup1: Unfortunately that seems at odds with getting rid of some of our international signing pool.

And I am sure the Cuban economy can use the boost.

Which of these three looks the crankiest. Possibly Fidel had a bout of flatulence? :smile11:

There are no winners here.

No. This guy does not count against the pool. He is old enough and played professionally. That stuff is mostly for the 16 year olds that they feed the hormones to to make them 6 foot 7.
