#Astros have DFA'd LH OFer Preston Tucker, 27, a former high school teammate of Mychal Givens in Tampa. Have to think O's will have some interest based on need for LH OF help.

Astros sure didn' give him much of a shot. You'd think someone would've thrown them a player for him.

In the minors.

Dunno if he's needed this year with the backlog of OF's in the upper minors right now. Stewart and Hayes might be ready by midseason. I would pass on Tucker, but he would be used as an everyday player here probably just two years ago.

I agree, I think Stewart is right now just as good of a hitter and a better fielder and baserunner.

I think the point made was Tucker is a left handed hitter

So is Stewart.

As mdbdotcom said, Stewart is too, and he destroys RHP.

Machado, Britton, Brach, Givens, Hays, Mullins, Stewart, etc. are all names which have been sought out by other ball clubs in trade talks. #Orioles have been popular this week - yet no deals done. Sounds familiar right? Déjà Vu.

Or various proposals are sitting on Peter's desk.

Actually, this doesn't sound familiar at all. The Orioles never have this much interest in their players. 

[backwardsk]

It does make me feel better that teams are coveting Mullins and Stewart.

Please don't give that guy exposure, all he does is post "scoops" that he takes from real journalists without giving any credit.

It's like what bothers you about Sir Loin except he's worse and he's not just posting it on a forum, he's a verified Twitter account.

Agreed ...but at least the guy worked for media outlets.

Being a lawyer is time consuming.
