I think someone will claim him. I guess that eliminates the chance of them offering him arbitration
Rabbitov
Ok, the only team claiming Felix Pie is a team that needs someone to collect batting helmets after walk off celebrations.
(anyone who doesn’t understand this reference ask an Orioles fan)
Fifty_Five
looks like your the nearest O’s fan. Please explain
Rabbitov
Yahoo search something about Pie getting helmet after walk off home-runs. There is some funny video evidence.
After you do that read this. Britt Ghiroli interviewing Felix Pie:
*Finally, by request, I asked Felix Pie about his weird antics when the team has a walk-off celebration. Pie scurries to grab the helmet, in what he describes as a nod to the National Football League. “It’s a touchdown,” Pie said of grabbing the helmet in celebratory glee. “It’s like we scored a touchdown.” So, do with that what you will.
Isaac
I bet catching helmets is anodize of pie for Felix haha

exhibit A in the people v. top prospects being sure things
cubsncards
you can not use any player the Cubs have screwed up to prove anything 🙂
notsureifsrs
ah, the Hendry clause. that’s some damn fine lawyering, jim
Elliot Hirsen
Only because Jim Hendry needs a little defending right now, please remember that Andy MacPhail was still in charge in 2001 when the Cubs signed Pie.
notsureifsrs
signing him was the good part though. his development after that (hendry took over in 2002) is what dude is questioning
basemonkey
Cubs prospects don’t count on this point. 😉
East Coast Bias
whoa, remember when he was a can’t miss prospect?
Rabbitov
He is a can’t miss prospect.
He can’t miss the 2nd baseman’s glove when trying to steal 2nd and can’t miss arguing every single call an ump makes, whether good or bad.
Patrick Geenen
He can’t complain about not getting chances to play everyday. He stunk in the field, couldn’t swing the bat, and can’t steal a base to save his life. Honestly this move should have happened months ago.

I can’t imagine anyone claiming Pie. Woe to the team that does.
Dave
Someone will give him a shot because he’s still only 26. I can’t remember ever seeing a guy with so much speed be so incompetent on the basepaths though.

There is a God!

JOY TO THE WORLD.

The Earthquake knocked Felix Pie right out of Baltimore.

Red Sox?
Indians?

Jake Fox the king of Minor league baseball returns for shot #6 Go get em Jake
Dave
He’s an incredibly nice guy. I’m definitely rooting for him, and not just because I’m an Orioles fan. Hopefully we can put two and two together and realize that he should never bat against lefties. EVER. He does a good job against righties though. And considering that I think there’s only one lefty closers in the majors right now and he’s not even in the AL, if I’m Buck, I wouldn’t hesitate to use him as a pinch hitter during the late innings.

D.j. Wilson
If he doesn’t get claimed, it’s bases solely on his salary.
Max Yarnovich
the orioles know chris jakubauskas is still on there roster right
niched
Jakubauskas is way more valuable to them than Felix Pie. Pie is arugably the worst hitter in the Majors year.
disgustedcubfan
Check out the Adam Dunn highlight reel for 2011.
D.j. Wilson
He’s been doing much better as a reliever
Dave
He’s been a respectable reliever. But he should never be allowed to start a game. EVER.
Billy Barker
say it aint so. they cant do that to Felix “Boston Creme” Pie
Leonard Washington
Justin Smoak…..whhoooo under preforming top prospects batman.
