Way too much for the O’s to give up
Ferrariman
i wouldn’t do this. Me personally, i’m not too high on Jones and Roberts isn’t exactly free or injury clean either.
Ben Graver
I wouldn’t say he’s untouchable, but he’s the lone anchor in an infield which is going to be in major flux. I doubt they woulda extended him last year just to ship him out .. especially after his health issues this year, which reduces his trade value.
Ben
Not a chance – a significant reason why the O’s did great the last 2 months of the year was having Brian Roberts at full strength batting leadoff. If the O’s gave him up, they’d need to find a new leadoff hitter – somebody who is not on the roster at the moment, especially given that Patterson is a free agent (not that he’s an ideal candidate anyway)
