Olney Rumor Bag: Eckstein, Teixeira
Another Saturday, another edition of Buster Olney's weekly blog; along-side the deafening Sabathia discussions, we find some hidden gems:
According to the Baltimore Sun, the Orioles are pondering making a deal for David Eckstein. The Blue Jays have a well-stocked infield that has made the veteran short stop and former World Series MVP expendable.
The Orioles have also been inquiring about Juan Uribe of the White Sox and Felipe Lopez of the Nationals.
Mark Bradley of the Atlanta-Journal Constitution thinks the Braves should trade Mark Teixera. Although some veteran leaders think the team is still in the division race, the Bravos do sit 7 games behind Philadelphia and have been hampered by injury all year.
Teixeira signed a one year-deal in January and can become a free agent next year, but he would prefer not to be traded this year.
