Word is that Nate wanted the one year deal and a starting job so that he could re-establish value and go for a multi-year deal next offseason. I don't think he got a promise of a starting job here, but he's got a good shot at it here.Jeremy Strainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328957000625143010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-14445453292424189162012-12-05T16:10:52.521-05:002012-12-05T16:10:52.521-05:00Never heard anyone say 8mm.

As is, it is not that big of a deal and he can be cut anytime without much concern if he does not produce.Jon Shepherdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03521809778977098687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-49568077800462301202012-12-05T14:35:25.657-05:002012-12-05T14:35:25.657-05:00Nate wanted the Orioles and vice versa.

There must have been very little interest around the league.<br /><br />Several other interesting guys are gone, though. Keppinger, who never strikes out, Pagan, Scutaro and others are gone.<br />The orioles better bring home a few other guys.Philip Taggartnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893512317902577458.post-24184430431025510772012-12-05T14:00:32.665-05:002012-12-05T14:00:32.665-05:00Orioles apparently came to a deal with McLouth.

Didn't we have a discussion with some people who didn't want to sign him because they thought he'd cost 8 or so?Matt Pnoreply@blogger.com
