According to Bruce Levine of ESPN 1000 in Chicago, the Cubs are waiting to hear back from the Orioles on a trade that would send P Mark Prior, P Rich Hill and OF Corey Patterson to the Orioles for SS Miguel Tejada and P Erik Bedard...

...this trade makes too much sense for the o's. their big weakness for the last eight years has been god-awful pitching, and they would get one young, cy young quality pitcher and another one with all the potential in the world who also happens to have a zito curveball. they cannot possibly turn this deal down...

Dec 18, 2005 | 2:56PM | report this

I saw a thread about this at the Mets MLB.com Forum and I felt the need to ask you guys here.
