Danys Baez: 3 yrs, $19 million

Not a big Baez fan, but it's not a bad deal.

Baez should make a good complement to Ray and Walker.

Looks like our bullpen is going from a weakness to a strength. I'm really liking the Orioles for next year.

7. Corey Patterson, CF
8. David Newhan, LF
9. Kevin Millar, DH/1B (if we re-sign)

SP- Erik Bedard
SP- Kris Benson
SP- Daniel Cabrera
SP- Jaret Wright
SP- Adam Loewen

LR- Hayden Penn, RHP
LR- John Parrish, LHP
MR- Jamie Walker, LHP

I know they're saying he's a setup man, but that's closer money. That tells me they don't have a lot of faith in Ray.

Well... I believe this makes our pen stronger, but Baez was not worth that contract.

Penn needs another season at AAA, and needs to be a starter in the future. He is talented enough to be a good ML starter.
