My Trade Idea: Tejada for Soriano

[The Miner Part 2]

the steriod rumors surronding tejeda would scare me to much if i was an organization. i would maybe take him on as a free agent, but i definetly wouldnt trade any big names for him.

What's the difference between signing him as a free agent, and trading a guy who is gone after this year for him? Why would it matter how you get him? Either way you lose Soriano, and Tejada has no reason to go to Washington unless he was forced there in a trade, so I don't know why steroid rumors would change how you get him.

well id trade soriano somewhere else obviously.

Is it too late to get Tejada for Prior?

id still take prior over tejada.

Because of his consistent production?

didnt soriano recently say he wanted to stay in washington?

Yea but Washington and Baltimore are the same city basically

Not entirely true, but more to the point, the odds that Tejada or Soriano reside within the city limits of either Baltimore or DC are just about 0.

This is not actually as ridiculous as it sounds, b/c many Cubs high profile deals have worked out nicely for the dealees...Lou Brock, Nomar this year, CPat, etc.
