good deal... one year later the O's resign B-Rob and also pick up Pie and Hill (last years trade rumor)
He'd be smart to hold off and "get outta dodge" as a free agent...those others definitely will when they reach that status. That's what happens in B-more now.
Baseball Stu... well, he is resigning so the trend didn't take place.
