Orioles May Be Done Dealing
By Tim Dierkes [July 30 at 1:36pm CST]
The Orioles shipped Miguel Tejada out of town yesterday, and they might be done dealing according to Dan Connolly of the Baltimore Sun.  Connolly doesn't anticipate more trades, but he ranks the Orioles most likely to go: Ty Wigginton, Will Ohman, and Luke Scott.

The Orioles lost a suitor for Wigginton when the Rangers acquired Jorge Cantu, and they like Wiggy's instruction of young players.  Connolly says to forget about starter Jeremy Guthrie being dealt - he's been told it's a near impossibility and that the O's would have to be blown away.


I don't mind them hanging on to Guthrie, I think he has talent, and needs run support (although the "blown away" comment is funny).

I don't understand hanging on to Wiggy, unless just because he's one of the few who can actually play first base (he doesn't need to be a mentor for young players, give him a shot to win).

I can't see how there's not a market for Ohman or Scott.
