O's don't have the depth to trade for either one of these guys but i would love
to have martinez.Bet the skanks wind up wth Lee and Hughues going back..I'm
sitting here wondering how Josh Hamilton got named a starter this year to the
allstar game.I'm also surprised that Adam Jones got selected over Sherill for
the O's.

across the board, but certainly a comedown. Although, to be fair, with stats
like his '08, a comedown was all but certain. Only Yo-Han and the '90s Greg
Maddux in recent times could do such things every year.

can play first base and back up Wieters.
