blue jays signed Santana 1 yr 14 million wow .

last thing roch said was the o's deal is worth more with the incentives and Santana will decide by 4 pm please pick the jays !!!!

For a one year deal it's not a bad move, but then who gets moved to the BP? Probably Gonzalez though Chen might be better there.

Norris is first man out ! either he is dealt or maybe our closer . as far as gonzo would be next man in danger of the 5 . tillman . ubalto . chen . gonzo and Norris . only way for chen to the pen is for britton beats him out . we will have a lhp for a starter in a perfect world we would have 2 . man would we be stacking up pitchers for the bp .

Norris or Gonzalez would be the #5, Britton would be good in the BP but he would have to be lights out the rest of the spring to be the starter. He's behind in the pecking order unless Hunter fails and Norris gets moved to closer.

sometimes it is hard to read buck . I think if it is close you will see 2 lhp starters . britton according to jim has been very good this spring . if he throws strike he as good as any we have he doesn't give up a lot of homers . btw o'day says his change up is the best he has ever had thanks to todd frohwirth remember him ? the run britton was charged with was a ball buck thought was an E .

 

[NJBuckO's]

I saw that about Frohwirth, and Britton has been good so far this spring. Hopefully he can contribute wherever they put him.

gausman 3 inn h 3 k vs the red sux a team . Nolan rbi and uuuuu rbi 2b

 

[tedman2012]

I wonder if meek could be the closer ?

 

[tedman2012]

they seemed to have britton moved away from tillman . so I wonder if they are doing this so they can compare chen and Zach . tillman goes Monday !

 

[tedman2012]

o's sent 3 down wright , Castillo ,and Marrero leaves 56 in camp . more cuts today per roch

 

[tedman2012]

schoop another good day . they said britton was a consistant 94 mph and his off speed stuff was nasty . last year rarely britton couldn't get up to 94 . duke said Wallace has made a big difference already in some of our young'uns . man they are killing the ball atm . weakest hitter atm maybe aj of all the starters . we will give him a pass see I made a funny .

the ones on the oh says the gun on the board was constant 94 -95 and that gun is usually slow .also said other pitchers was at their norms mph. so he maybe back to his 97 mph fastball with killer breaking stuff . they say scouts are all over him ! buck said it was 12 scouts on sat and 14 today .

That's good, at worst they can get good value in a trade for ZB.

very true !!! he is a tigger killer and would be an o's killer . wonder why buck keeps brning up tillman when talking about Zach . School of Roch: Postgame notes and quotes following 9-2 win do love what he says about wallaces saying . so if Zach tries it seems like 97 is already in that left arm .

 

[tedman2012]

hey the braves may want a lhp that can hit . medlen hurt

 

[tedman2012]

wonder if the o's would do a Norris for papelbon deal ? Cafardo On Stanton, De Aza, Porcello, Drew, Britton: MLB Rumors - MLBTradeRumors.com

if I was Phillies I would go for Zach he can't be a fa until 18 at the earliest .

 

[NJBuckO's]

Too many arms and not enough spots.

watch us deal the wrong one . Ervin I just don't trust him he isn't an ace ! what do we do with a guy making 14 million and if he sucks ? I know they would just keep sending his ass back out there. I trust britton more than tommy boom boom hunter for closer . I hate homerun pitchers love ground chuck pitchers . all this talk for a 9 - 10 pitcher on a decent team . Zach was 11-11 on a terrible team .

 

[NJBuckO's]

I'm a little leery of signing Santana too in that park. If Hunter dosen't do well I wonder if Webb can close?
