Brian Roberts WILL Go to the Cubs
Philadelphia Inquirer:
Sources say that Orioles second baseman Brian Roberts will be traded to the Cubs as soon as the Orioles decide which pitchers they want in return. . . .
The Cubs have a choice between Sean Marshall, Donald Veal, Sean Gallagher, and Jason Marquis.(according to MLBTR) I would go with Donald Veal and Sean Gallagher to go along with whatever else is in the deal. Most likely Ronny Cedeno. I guess this is the Cubs getting a steroid user to match the Astros (Miguel Tejada). But this would be a great off-season for O's rebuilding their farm by trading 3 guys. Their system will be stocked and could actually make something of themselves in 3-4 years.
