Orioles Discuss Lohse, Villone, Chacon

Jeff Zrebiec of the Baltimore Sun says the Orioles are looking at various one or two-year stopgap free agents.

• According to Scott Boras, he and Andy MacPhail have discussed six or seven of his clients.  Among them are Kyle Lohse, Ron Villone, and Corey Patterson.  Lohse would probably not sign for two years, I'm guessing.  Or in the American League.  Who else might they have discussed?  Jeff Weaver?  Anyway, it's nice to see the Orioles getting along with Boras!
• Zrebiec notes that the O's have had "preliminary talks" with the agents for Shawn Chacon and Steve Trachsel.  Looks like MacPhail just wants some warm bodies for the back end of the rotation.  Chacon seems to prefer to the Pirates, and a return to Pittsburgh looks "increasingly logical."
• Zbrebiec says Rod Barajas seems to be headed elsewhere despite "significant discussions" with Baltimore.
