STEVE TRACHSEL RUMORS

Oriole Invite 12 Non-Roster Players to Spring Training

Some thoughts on the 12 non-roster invitees:Scott Moore: I've been a fan of Moore's for awhile. Moore came over from the Cubs in the Steve Trachsel trade but due to various injuries (most recently his thumb) he only played in 82 games in 2008 and 32 games in 2009. I like giving a healthy Scott Moore a shot to play third for Baltimore in 2010 than signing Joe Crede or Miguel...

Rob Dibble: "Mark McGwire is a cheat"

Plenty of people have lobbed criticism toward Mark McGwire in the past few days. But I'm not sure anyone's worked up quite as much indignation as our own Rob Dibble. His opening monologue during his daily Sirius XM show on Tuesday was straight fire, the sort of thing that would have Bob Carpenter scrambling under his desk and looking for cover. "This guy cheated every...

An In Depth Look At Citi Field

In March of 2006, while the New York Mets players were preparing for what would be one of the team’s best seasons to date, the Mets higher ups were busy working on a new home for the team. The team had not seen a new ball park in over four decades and with the creation of SNY, the Wilpons felt it would be an opportune time to modernize the team’s home. Ground broke on the ...

He Shall Be Livan

I watched a couple of innings of Livan Hernandez' start today, and DVR'ed the rest to watch later. I came away from it convinced of two things: one, that Hernandez has a huge lead in the fifth starter derby, and two, on a good day I can still bring my "fastball" a couple of mph faster than El Duque's kid brother. Still, Hernandez keeps pitching well, and none...

King for a Day: the Cubs' One-Time Game #1 Starters

As noted here and everywhere else yesterday, Lou Piniella has decided to give Carlos Zambrano the Opening Day assignment at Houston. It will be the fifth time Zambrano has had the honor; the Cubs have gone 2-2 in Z's previous Opening Day outings. Fergie Jenkins started seven openers for the Cubs, while Rick Sutcliffe started five, and Rick Reuschel, four. The real fun in...

Catching Up With Some Former Mets

Today is a slow news day, as the players only had a one hour workout today in preparation of the first intrasquad game tomorrow. In the mean time, I thought it’d be fun to catch up with some former Mets, and see what they are up to since departing the Mets. SP Steve Trachsel – Trachsel last appeared with the Mets in 2006 when he won 15 games and was a key member of...

Hendrickson to the Orioles

Before yesterday, the Orioles starting rotation looked something like this:1. Jeremy Guthrie2. ??????????3. ?????????????4. ????????5. ???????????So it's obvious that the Orioles needed to add some depth to their starting rotation, even if they have virtually no shot at competing this season. ...
