Well I spoke to my guy alittle bit ago and I will talk to him again several more times this week. Ill have the latest for everyone as things come about. Remember as BB an others state, read into it what you will.

First..Mark Teixera to Boston for prospects is being talked about right now. And its heating up.

Bedard being traded is laughable he said. Dont expect him to go anywhere.

I have a spicy Bedard story from this past offseason that I will share later tonight. Which Im getting more details on. You'll like it.

Cabrera and Tejada being traded is being talked about. He said "of

course" when I asked if they are being rumored.

I will have more later tonight.

Why? He isn't going to sign long term.

If Theo is trading any prospects you can bet they are going to get an extension with him. Theo is not afraid of Boras by any means. Manny's contract will be up in a few years and they will have the money. If Teixeira goes to Boston that's the end of any thoughts of him in an Orioles uniform until he's in his late 30's. Do you really see Theo giving up top prospects for a rental?

We can't let Boston get Tex. That would be the final straw for me...

You think Boston would have learned by now. Them trading their young prospects hasn't exactly been good. Didn't kill them, but I bet they wish they had Hanley Ramirez right about now.

First of all, just because Boston has money, doesn't mean they will sign Tex. Being afraid or not of Boras has nothing to do with it...HIS CLIENTS DON'T SIGN EXTENSIONS!!!!!!!!!

Secondly, they want AROD and they will probably get him.

They can't afford Ortiz, ManRam, AROD and Tex.

I will be suprised if they even make this move to be honest and to be honest, if they do, i think it is a good thing for the Orioles...Just like if NY traded for him.

They signed Beckett to an extension so what makes you think they won't try to sign Tex? Even if they don't extend him they can re-sign him. They have the resources to do it. We'd better have one hell of a Plan B because Tex isn't going to want to come to a losing franchise once he gets a taste of winning...

It's going to make me absolutely sick if the reason we lost Teixeira to the Red Sox was because we couldn't give up Daniel freaking Cabrera.... :mad:

I never said they won't try and sign Tex but Tex likely won't sign and even if he does, that means Boston has spent over 20 million plus given up 2-3 prospects...That is good for the Orioles.

You need to stop with this....Tex is not the only first baseman in baseball.
