Miguel Tejada : possibly a Phillie next year

Re: Miguel Tejada : possibly a Phillie next year

Would love to have him here in Chicago as a White Sox. I also know the Cubs will make a big push for him. Hell, us and 20 other teams will make a push for this guy.

Man, Vlad and Miggy in an O's uniform? Great! Angelos has already stated that he is willing to spend money. But honestly, I hope he gets EITHER Miggy or Vlad (not both), and spend the big bucks on an ace pitcher.

I agree, I would like to see them get Vlad, then Gibbons can play 1st and ROberts could probably play short. Last year, I thought we would need a lot of hitting but now it seems we need an ace more, with Daal and Helling being busts and Rodrigo not looking good (I think he will rebound next year though).

To be honest with you, I don't want Tejada. Way too much money for his production. I'm not saying he's bad by any means, but I feel that whoever does get him, will end up overpaying him.

To me, I'd rather have a decent #2 or #3 starter and a few situational guys in the bullpen (good ones mind you).

it was also reported on the same program that the Phils would go after a legit bigtime closer (i.e. Ugeth Urbina...he was one of the names brought up)

I hope so, I'm just weary of all these "promises" after getting screwed by these owners for some many years. I'm still thinking that this years spending spike is due to the fact that they need to sell luxury boxes for the new stadiun. I guess we won't know for a few years whether they really want to become a great team, or just generate revenue. Its sad, because if done correctly, they can do both (see NY Yankees).

As for Tejada, let me put it this way. For the money they would spend on Tejada (Approx 12-15 million), they could have Vasquez (7-9 million) and Dotel (3 Million). I don't think Dotel is a free agent, but this is just an example.
