No Recent Talks Between Angels And Orioles On Tejada
20th November, 2007 - 11:22 am
Baltimore Sun - An industry source said Monday that the Orioles and Angels have not had any significant discussions recently about Miguel Tejada, who is expected to be traded this offseason. However, another league source said the Angels would be interested in Tejada to potentially play third base if the club can't make a trade for Florida Marlins' slugger Miguel Cabrera.

Orioles' President of Baseball Operations Andy MacPhail wouldn't comment on any specific talks, though he said he's in daily contact with several teams as the winter meetings draw closer. They will be held the first week in December in Nashville, Tenn.

"A day doesn't go by where you don't talk to at least three or four clubs," MacPhail said. "I would hope we'd be able to do some things. Right now, my best guess would be at Nashville. But we wouldn't hesitate to do some things earlier if it makes sense for us."

The Orioles nearly traded Tejada to the Angels before the trade deadline during the 2006 season. However, a potential deal that would have sent Tejada to the Angels for infield prospect Erick Aybar and pitcher Ervin Santana was scrapped when the Orioles insisted on getting a third player in return.
