Stark on Baseball Tonight

If Traded, Tejada will be going to Houston! This is JUST my opinion based on the conversations I have haad with my guy!

From what has been reported as to what the Stros are offering, that would be a bad trade then.

The originial offer reported was Hirsch, Pence, Nieve, & Adam Everett. Patton was just added by Hangout posters based on wishful thinking. Doubtful that the Stros give up both of their top two pitching prospects. We don't need Everett, so if he could be replaced by another good prospect, it would be tempting.

Harnish, Schilling, and Finley? :rolleyes:

It would be great if we could pull off a great deal and bring back some top prospects but I am getting ready for the famous "weren't offered enough" comments on Monday.

Thanks for the info Belkast. If the deal is w/ the 'Stros, I'll be happy to hear this ("weren't offered enough") on Tuesday. The thing I keep coming back to is that Miggy is under contract for three seasons after this. If we don't like what we're offered now, we can wait till the offseason & listen to more/other offers.

Hirsch and Pence are the main two guys. Hirsch would likely step into the rotation right away, as he's already dominating AAA. Pence would go to Bowie.

I have no interest in Everett. Might as well go cheap and play Fahey if you have to have an offensively inept SS.

Any 'Stros trade would have to include Hirsch and Pence, and maybe even Patton, but thats certainly a comparable package to what the Angels will offer.

I actually prefer Hirsch and Pence to any reasonable package the Angels will put together that doesn't include Kendrick and Santana.

I've been listening to the media (Olney, Kurkjian, Stark, Rosenthal) over the past couple of weeks and everytime the Orioles are mentioned as a possible trade partner with anyone, you always hear the name Angelos. You neeeeeeeever hear Flanagan's name, but you're always hearing Pupura, Stoneman, etc....

I just think that's kinda funny.

What I think is funny that in the morning you hear one of these guys say Tejada won't be traded because of the $$ left on his contract and what the O's are asking for in return... then in the afternoon or evening, the other guy is telling you how the talks for Tejada are hot and that something could happen... then the next morning... you hear a different guy basically say both things... talks for Tejeda are hot, but......

I'm hearing it to the Angels and it may come down to Big Pete signing off on the deal. Deal will include Woods if it happens with LA.

    • Yeah, basically this, that Westburg's underlying numbers (EV, barrel %, xwOBA) seem to point at this being pretty real, or at least that there's nothing 'undeserved / lucky' about this hot streak, if it's just that. 
    • The problem with a Cowser/Kjerstad/Stowers/Bradfield outfield roster is there are no right handers to handle LHP. I don't think and completely left handed outfield is the destination for an organization the values versatility.
    • Looks maybe concussion related. 
    • How can you not be romantic about baseball? This seems slightly poetic. I enjoyed reading, and correlated your experience in the stands back to what I watch in Game 1 on MASN.  It was also pretty cool to hear Jim Palmer give you a shout out in Game 2 of the series on Live TV.
    • I am not worried.  It just doesn’t remotely meet the eye test.  He has been great in the field . I can think of at least 3 outstanding plays he has made and not any that I thought he should have gotten but didn’t. Meanwhile Holliday is 3 OAA and I can’t think of an outstanding play and can think of a number I thought he should have made. 
    • Nicely stated Roy. Every since I was 9 years old and saw the O's vs. the Tokyo Giants in Tokyo in 1971, I've been infected with the Orange/Black virus. There is no cure and I don't want one. You and I sat at the lunch table with Jim Palmer at the 1970 World Series Champs reunion, and its still one of my enduring baseball memories. You said I looked like Carlton Fisk! I was at all 3 games in this Angels series, right behind the O's dugout. I got to see all our boys, and just simply love to watch this team play. And in true baseball fashion, the one game on paper we should have dominated (GRod vs. 8+ ERA Channing), we end up down 7-0 and lose. But watching Gunnar's homers, his electric triple, and he made a fantastic play today on a ball that went under Westburg's glove, Adley do Adley things, Cowser, holy crap. Kimbrel v. Trout with bases loaded, bottom of 9th, 2 outs, down by 2? That was fun. Next game Trout bats leadoff and torches a GRod fastball for a homer to the opposite field.  An observation.... If you didn't know anything about the team, and you only watched game 1 batting practice, you'd think Cowser and O'Hearn were the studs of the team. Mountcastle was taking BP with the reserves and he put on a show as well.  Home after 3 straight days watching this O's team, so jealous of the Balt fans in Balt that get to see the team with regularity. It's a special bunch.
