The Weekend That Was & Teixiera

Well, the Orioles won on Friday & Saturday thanks to strong pitching performances by Jeremy Guthrie and Daniel Cabrera, respectively. However, on Sunday, they got spanked by the Rangers 15-7, thanks to a poor pitching performance by Chris Waters and a implosion by the Baltimore bullpen. The Texas offense lit up the Baltimore staff and Sunday just became a long afternoon thanks to “the big inning” & poor play in the field (especially Cintron who might have opened up the flood gates in the first inning).

Mora and Huff each hit homers, but that could not save the Orioles at all.

Now, it’s time to hear from you all. As we know, Mark Teixiera got traded at the deadline in July, and there’s a lot of speculation as to where he’ll end up in 2009. The question is do you see the Orioles making a play for him, and if they do, would it be a wise decision by the organization or not?
