4 Year Plan

[tjfla]

They dont want a "1 yr flier" SP they are looking for a solid SP for 3 or 4 yrs. Might be Shields/Might be Ubaldo

As for Headley the issue is the team we would be battling is the NYY,no cap up there

Ubaldo isn't "solid"
--------------------
he's actively a bad pitcher

By this logic every pitcher on this team not named Jose is worse than an actively bad pitcher.

Have you looked at Ubaldo's recent track record?

He has an ERA+ below 100 in three of the last four years. 2.2 bWAR combined over the last four seasons, including three negative seasons. He's been bad for a long time, and he's owed $39 million over the next three seasons.

If the Orioles eat $10 million per year, I'd take him, sure.

But he's probably not an upgrade on the in-house options here.

Only way I'd take him is if the Orioles personally paid me $10,000,000 a year.

You're right, you could probably just roll with Heaney/Disco and get numbers around the same for $9.5 million less.
