Really? So it's just people throwing names out there with Dunn?
Well, those people include Bob Lodson
That's a detached balanced reliable voice
Sources within the Nationals Organization tell the Central Maine Sports Blog that the Nationals are "99% certain they will land slugger Mark Teixeira. Teixeira has narrowed the field down to the Red Sox and Nationals, with Teixeira and his family favoring Washington, and Boras pushing for the Red Sox."http://www.centralmainesportsblog.com/2008/12/teixeira-to-nationals-99-according-to.htmlTake it for what it's worth
I'd say it's down to the O's and the O's.
http://masnsports.com/index_blog_roch.htmlGammons weighs in (updated)I'm told that Peter Gammons just offered the opinion on SportsCenter that Mark Teixeira will make a decision within the next 48 hours, and the choice is down to the Red Sox and Angels.And so it goes...Update: I should stress that I didn't see the report. Just going by what I was told. And now I'm hearing that he actually said Red Sox and Nationals. Either way, he left out the Orioles. Anyway, my apologies. But read on anyway.I believe that the Red Sox are in the thick of things, but I was under the impression that the Angels were bowing out. Manager Mike Scioscia seemed to be conceding defeat when he said, "We gave it our best shot," and started talking about Manny Ramirez.Teixeira really seems to prefer playing on the East Coast, but I rated the Angels as the early favorite a while back because they figured to make him an overwhelming final offer. And it's not like he was miserable in Anaheim after the trade. And the Angels need to do something.So now we have Gammons excluding the Orioles, Karl Ravech pushing them front and center, and a whole bunch of fans who are more confused now than they were 24 hours ago.A friend asked me if this is the worst saga I've covered. I'd still rate the Brian Roberts-to-the-Cubs rumors last winter as the most taxing and frustrating. I shot down so many of those, my ears are still ringing. It got to be a joke among the beat writers and team president Andy MacPhail, though the humor eventually was lost on him - and the rest of us, for that matter.That deal was supposedly completed about 20 different times, and Roberts is still an Oriole.By the way, Roberts sounded pretty excited about the Orioles signing Cesar Izturis during his call-in segment on the Scott Garceau/Anita Marks Show, though I didn't expect him to say, "Oh no, not that guy!" Roberts seems like he's a fan of Izturis' glovework.
That'll have the morons on Orioles Hangout going insane. Wherever he chooses, it definitely won't be here.
Those are old reports. They're already past freaking out over that. Hopefully hammondsnats doesn't still think we have a chance.
That blog entry is from a few hours ago. Surely they haven't gotten any news on the O's getting Teixeira since then. Even if they have it's mostly bullcrap anyways. Still through all of this hoopla I've yet to hear anything regarding the O's and Teixeira other than the idiots at Orioles Hangout. The O's are rarely mentioned in the media.
I'm amazed that Gammons came out from underneath Theo Epstein's desk long enough to make a report.
