I would just catch up with them, talk to 'em for a minute, and let them go. then we would plan to talk later or something.

He was traded before it came out, the Orioles are terrible and are rebuilding and wanted to get rid of his payroll, that's why he was traded. <BR/><BR/>Roberts was one of the guys that people felt didn't belong on the list. I highly doubt this is going to lower the Orioles asking price. Roberts doesn't get paid a ton, the front office and team loves him, don't think you'll be getting him for cheap.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37446836.post-32516288475523771842007-12-18T09:25:00.000-06:002007-12-18T09:25:00.000-06:00actually the Os were expected to trade him anyway,...actually the Os were expected to trade him anyway, especially if Bedard is dealt. the asking price wont be lowered, as the Cubs GM still "really wants" B Rob.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37446836.post-82308096340181650302007-12-18T09:00:00.000-06:002007-12-18T09:00:00.000-06:00Whether the Orioles trade him or not has no bearin...Whether the Orioles trade him or not has no bearing on his recent admission.
