Lugo Traded to O's

[Mike B]

I guess this means Andino is off the team.

3 errors in 5 chances will do that to you. Lugo is past his prime but still can steal a base and hit a little. He is or was a natural SS so that is a benefit.

Is this our first St. Louis trade since Will Clark back in 2000? It's minor, I know, but nice to know we can trade around the league.

I suspect Andino clears waivers then ends up in AAA. Or someone is willing to give us a PTNLB for him which covers the PTNLB to St. Louis. End of the day, they soured on Andino and took an opportunity to replace him.

I was all for giving Andino his shot this year, but he didn't earn it in ST.

[El Gordo]

Wonder if Moeller could be the PTBNL?

Counting down the inevitable "Print the playoff tickets, baby!!!!!!" from Milligan, who's entirely too cool for our comprehension.

Lex beat him to it... in the first thread about our newest addition.

Andino's hotdogging yesterday did not go over well with the team. MacPhail was not too happy with him seating in the stands. I also think we might pick up a catcher(Detroit perhaps) and maybe a reliever.

I was hoping this would be an April fools joke. didn't even know Lugo was still around.

He's a hotdogger, for sure. I wonder if he just said, "screw it. I'm outta here anyway" and just cut loose.

Good, I never really liked Andino anyways. He's too big for his proverbial britches.

Man, that fanfest planning sure is going slowly.

My father's in the hospital right now (been there a week but he's getting released today) and he called me up last night just to :cussing: about Andino's hotdogging.

[Sports Guy]

Did you guys hear Palmer yesterday? Going off on Andino because of the one error would he made a nice stab at the ball and then hot dogged it?

I gotta think that had something to do with it.

I don't mind this move as long as the PTBNL isn't anyone of any kind of value.

[Moose Milligan]

What'd Andino do yesterday?

Isn't Lugo the one who beat his wife a few years ago? It's a shame blueberryale isn't around anymore...the right side of the O's infield would be great for her with Lugo's domestic disputes and Luke Scott's penchant for firearms.

what exactly did Andino do yesterday? I missed the game and didn't read anything about it on Roch's blog.

very happy with the trade. Love the ability to have someone come off the bench and steal a base.
