ESPN's Ravech: Teixeira has "enormous attraction to the Orioles" Close to signing

Roch posts something Tex related:

I think we all suspected this.

And we've put some work making him a face of the organization. I'm sure the FO would love to keep him around, even with Tex becoming our immediate star player.

I just echoed Big Pete's terminal and can say for certain that Tex will be an Oriole.

Amazing sir... great news.

How about a bold move or two (or three). Let's get Tex, Sheets, and Kawakami.

And Wolf! He would be a nice short term pick up!

And are any animals harmed in the process?

Sounds like something from Guantanamo Bay.

I'll tell you who will be relieved - Nick Markakis.

The guy probably feels like an ant underneath a magnifying glass with the sun shining down on him.

reminds me of seinfeld episode where elaine got mad at her boyfriend for not using an axclamation point for the phone message. Think a friendgot engaged or was pregnant.

Speaking of Seinfeld and answering machine messages...

Agreed. W/o another star his expectations become even more scrutinized.

What news? I'm confused there...

Can somebody put that in layman's terms?

Amazing sir... great news.

So then, that would be bad news for me...ummm...what is Big Pete's terminal and how does it know Tex is an Oriole?

My therapy may include storming Fenway Park with pitchforks. Whether he signs with the Red Sox or not.

It sounds like a joke that I don't understand to me.

I thought SoutherBird's comment was tongue-in-cheek. I didn't think he was serious...but maybe I'm wrong.
