39bills8 Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Bout time the O's did something good. They need some major pitching though. The AL east will be pretty nuts now. As a life long O's fan I'm happy but I don't want him to turn out to be the next Albery Belle!
CosmicBills Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Too bad the Cubs didn't do this earlier, they may have been able to take a run at Beltran.
Arkady Renko Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Being an Orioles fan, I care and can't say I am too excited. Hopefully the Orioles won't give up many prospects and the Cubs will be paying the majority of the salary. Angelos has ruined this team... Orioles fans are a dying breed.
BB2004 Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Sosa for the birds 222422[/snapback] It will help both teams. I think it favors the O's more because the Cubs still have to pay most of his salary.
Ramius Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 the cubbies are gonna make a run at magglio...
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 I might check a game out there this year.

Their farm system has been abysmal for almost a decade. 222466[/snapback] One of the best things that happened to Rochester lately was the Red Wings leaving the Orioles for the Twins. Not a huge baseball fan, but I like a good summer afternoon minor league game now and then.
VABills Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 This helps the O's as they now have to compete with the Nationals for fans. Also, they have not been selling nearly as many tickets since the fake SS retired a few years ago.
stevestojan Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Sammy -steroids -corked bat +$18million= RJ 222447[/snapback] I don't think there's a mathematician in the world who could argue that equation.
Golden Wheels Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Too bad for Baltimore that Sammy is now past his prime and MLB has a stricter steroids policy.
Robert Paulson Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 great trade for the Cubs Sammy has been a locker room cancer for many years now. in most clubhouses the starting pitcher chooses the music for the day. Sammy blasted his Salsa at 11 every day. the day he skipped out, Kerry Wood took a bat to Sammy's boom box. he was a good diversion when the Cubs were losing 90+ games/year but they were never going to be a serous series contender with him on the Cubs. i did not say team because there was no team in Sammy's limited English vocabulary. it was all Me, Me Me. a bag of batting practice balls would have ben a good trade for him. addition by subtraction. he was a huge hole in the lineup batting 3rd. a major rally killer. he should have batted 8th but finally agreed to go down to 6th. that cost the Cubs a good 5-6 wins early in the year which cost them the playoffs.

My sister lives in Chicago and I go to tons of Cubs games. She used to live in Wrigleyville two blocks away from Wrigley. Fuggin awesome! I am a Yanks fan but love the Cubs too. I would love to see the Cubs do something next year. They definately have some talent and I agree Sammy gone will help them. Go Cubs!
