how come we can’t force Mora to be SS? He can at least be an adequate stop-gap there for the rest of the season, that way we can have Huff at Third, Millar at First, and have Payton/Scott switch between DH and LF to more properly showcase Payton to trade. I just think it’s awful how Salazar performs well and there’s no room at the corners for him to stay in the lineup.

I’d rather not have either of them. None of these guys are going to be an upgrade over Cintron – have we heard how long we’re going to go without him yet? – and none of them would be more than a minimal upgrade over Brandon Bynum. Might as well not add in some schmuck who might be a sourpuss.

It’s really hard to say. A change of scenery will do wonders for any player. Tejada has to be relieved to be on a team filled with players that are as good at their positions as he is at his. He was surrounded by mediocrity here in Baltimore.

Who knows, maybe Felipe Lopez could be rejuvenanted by getting daily starts at SS in Baltimore, instead of backing up Christian Guzman.

Maybe he will find his stroke simply in the fact that the Nationals are a pretty awful organization, even when compared to the Orioles.

Maybe he will actually feel the pressure to start trying given that he would be coming into a ballclub with a winning record.

I’d rather have Flop than Uribe.
