2008-05-13 19:13:00 The Baltimore Orioles tango with the Boston Red Sox, or as I dub them, the Evil Empire 1A tonight and tomorrow at the Yard.The Red Sox always play us tough; however, this weekend, the Twins took 3 out of 4 from them and they'll be looking maintain their slim division lead (Tampa is 1/2 game back from first in the AL East right now).The Orioles took three out of four in Kansas City, and despite the excellent pitching from both the starting and relief corps -- they are still struggling woefully on the offensive front.Matchups:Tonight: Jeremy Guthrie (1-3, 4.32) vs. Josh Beckett (4-2, 3.70)Tommorrow: Daniel Cabrera (3-1, 3.54) vs. Jon Lester (2-2, 4.06)I'd be happy with a split, and even more elated with a sweep in this short two-game series. Game one will be difficult as Beckett seems to back on his game and Guthrie will need a solid effort to win; however, I'm looking eagerly to see game two as it will be a test to see if Cabrera can stifle the Sox potent offense.The Boston offen...

Adam Jones at the ESPN Zone: Thursday, April 17th
2008-04-18 12:00:00 The newest Oriole and perhaps superstar-in-the-making, Adam Jones, held a Q&A & autopgraph session at the ESPN Zone in Baltimore's Inner Harbor on Thursday.There was a good sized crowd in the facility as Adam Jones took questions from fans about the Orioles, his short time in the majors and also off the field items, such as things that he does in free time, as well also a few questions on --- dating (yes, he's single, "but, he says he's working on it").In the past few weeks, I have had the opportunity to catch the young fellow on the radio and also on TV and fans saw the side of Adam that has been by the public - a focused young man who knows the game, as well being funny and very engaging.It's hard to forget he's only 22 -- hell, at Jones' age, I was still taking classes and knew absolutely nothing about the world. However, just by hearing him speak and interact with the crowd -- he's at ease and he knows who he is and where he wants to be within the game of baseball...

From MASN Sports: Adam Jones Chats It Up With Amber Theoharis...
2008-04-11 18:45:00 Our hope, our future (Adam Jones) chats with Amber Theoharis. Right now, he's a bit raw and although he's done nothing to lose his spot, and looks to be still learning the ropes of the big leagues. I have no doubt he'll bust out one of these days an be an All-Star; however, we as fans need to be patient -- the potential is there based on a catch I saw him make last night, and also his athleticism.

Bedard to Mariners ? Finally Completed
2008-02-08 22:26:00 Erik Bedard’s trade to the Seattle Mariners seems to have finally been completed. This deal has been in talks for a couple of months now and has been announced as on & off several times. The Orioles are expected to acquire Adam Jones, George Sherrill, Chris Tillman, Kam Mickolio and Tony Butler for Bedard. Bedard ...

Adam Jones For Erik Bedard Trade: Prospects Analysis
2008-02-05 12:17:00 With just the physicals to come-up clean, the Baltimore Orioles and Seattle Mariners are about to consumate the second-biggest trade of the off-season - LHP Erik Bedard for CF Adam Jones, LP George Sherrill and three minor league pitchers - RHP Chris Tillman, RHP Kam "The Almighty" Mickolio and LHP Tony Butler. I expect Adam Jones to be a valuable fantasy contributor as the O's CF, and George Sherrill to enter Spring Training as the orioles' new closer. What I admit to knowing very little about are the three pitching prospects the Orioles received. What better way is there to segue into John Sickel's The Baseball Prospect Book 2008 than with a review of each player using Mr. Sickels' assessments along with their highest 2008 minor league level. RHP Chris Tillman (High A):He has a 90-93 MPH fastball and a very good curve, and, late in the year, his command was quite good. As long as that remains true, he has to rate as one of the better pitching prospects in the...

The Adam Jones Degenerative Hip Rumor
2008-01-29 23:40:00 This story got lost in the shuffle today. Let's take a look at what we know about the Adam Jones degenerative hip rumor. The rumor originated with Stan Charles, publisher of a Baltimore sports weekly called Press Box. Charles appeared on the Mark Viviano Show on ESPN 1300 Tuesday afternoon. Unfortunately I did not hear exactly what Charles said - the show may be up for download on Wednesday. But the gist of Charles' rumor based on emailers who listened is that the Orioles believe Jones has a degenerative hip condition. They are trying to use this leverage to get more players for Erik Bedard. The Orioles saw firsthand how quickly a degenerative hip killed Albert Belle's career. Roch Kubatko of the Baltimore Sun: All I can say about the topic is that the Orioles became concerned with something related to Jones, and the fact that they wanted to bring him in for a physical before alerting Bedard's agent that a trade agreement was reached should s...

The Theater of the Absurd: More on Bedard, Does Adam Jones Have A Hip Probl
2008-01-29 22:01:00 Well, this story is becoming even more outrageous and with even more twists and turns.Ah, from Roch's blog:... I've been in meetings most of the day and have an interview at 5 p.m. - not for a new job, so don't get your hopes up. But I wanted to address the rumor (because it's what I do these days) that Adam Jones has a degenerative hip condition and that's why the Erik Bedard trade hit a snag.All I can say about the topic is that the Orioles became concerned with something related to Jones, and the fact that they wanted to bring him in for a physical before alerting Bedard's agent that a trade agreement was reached should send off signals. But we've heard nothing up to this point about his hip.Maybe this will prove true later. We'll find out soon enough. But nobody at The Sun would go on a radio show and blurt out this kind of information without being absolutely positive (and obviously reporting it in the paper first). That's dangerous territory, especially when you're p...

Tha Yankees Quit Johan Santana Again & Adam Jones Rumors
2008-01-14 20:11:00 ESPN.com reports the Yankees has once again pulled out of the Johan Santana sweepstakes. While no one will believe it until Johan is actually holding up another team's uniform during a press conference, one can only work from the perspective of what current events dictate. I suspect the Red Sox will have to show their cards, so to speak. Have they only been involved to make sure the Yankees pay up for a 2007 difference maker? We'll know soon enough. Assuming the Red Sox were bluffing, the big winner is the Mets who can now assertively stand on a four-prospect package. If Carlos Gomez remains in the deal, then AL-only leagues have just acquired a potential 40 SB player. * In other trade news, the Seattle Mariners have pulled CF Adam Jones from the Venezuelian Winter League. Of course, my first reaction was he is being protected ahead of an imminent trade to the Baltimore Orioles. Then, following months of trade speculation about Erik Bedard and J...

Odds and Ends: Adam Jones, Weaver, Jocketty
2008-01-12 19:43:00 You know how it works...random rumors and links to clear out my inbox. Adam Jones left winter ball early, perhaps as a prelude to a trade. The Cardinals' interest in Jeff Weaver is "at best, tepid" according to Derrick Goold. However, Goold thinks they should bring him back. Walt Jocketty said on XM Radio: "I don't want to be a GM again." I guess that settles that, Wayne Krivsky can rest easy. This is kind of funny. Mark Teahen on meeting Jose Guillen: "For the most part he didn?t rub me the wrong way - he seemed like a good guy." Hmmm....for the most part?

More Mariners Info
2007-10-14 18:24:00 I just learned that Larry LaRue of the Tacoma News Tribune has his own blog. Here's some recent info from him to complement our Mariners Needs and Luxuries post. Regarding that starter they need to add this winter...how about Johan Santana? LaRue had a post a couple of weeks ago indicating the Twins have scouted the Mariners and would start the discussion with Adam Jones. With a negotiating window, it's something the Ms would have to consider. Santana and Felix Hernandez fronting the rotation would get all of Venezuela tuning in for 40% of Mariners games. LaRue seemingly takes a shot at Jayson Stark, saying that Stark's note about a team claiming Richie Sexson and the Mariners pulling him back was false. LaRue probably did not realize the rumor started with a respected baseball writer.

Puzzle Pieces: On LaRoche, Ibanez, Jones, Ankiel, and more
2007-08-13 20:18:00 BURNETT BACK (AND MORE INJURY-PRONE THAN EVER) A.J. Burnett made his first start since coming back from the disabled list on Sunday against the Royals, and did so in style, going 7.1 strong innings while striking out 5 and allowing only one run. The lone tally against him was on a solo homerun by Alex Gordon, who has homered in two straight games. I’ve mentioned to pick Burnett up before, but for those of you who haven’t yet, you should probably heed the call. At least until he gets injured and his GM calls him a pansy again. LAROCHE HEATING UP OF LATE After a hugely disappointing start (including an ugly .133 April), Adam LaRoche is now up to 17 HR and 65 RBI, and has hit .322 since the start of July. This is the same guy who went .323 with 19 HR and 48 RBI after the break last year, so the capabilities are definitely there. He’s still somehow available on 4/5 of waiver wires, so pick him up where available. LaRoche, who was diagnosed with ADD last year while pla...

A Profile of Adam Jones
2007-08-07 15:01:00 What can be expected of top prospect Adam Jones?? Well, it's about damn time. In one of my leagues, (previously addressed here)which allows a team to keep players essentially forever, a few years ago we drafted Adam Jones. We have been patiently waiting for him to get called up. Fantasy players all know that feeling; reading 800 different transaction sites and emails for even the slightest
Seattle Outfield Crowded with Adam Jones Arrival
2007-08-03 03:44:00 The long-anticipated arrival of minor league slugging prospect Adam Jones to the Mariners creates a crowd in the outfield, likely pushing established veterans to the bench from time to time in an unhappy game of musical chairs.Designated hitter Jose Vidro has been seen as a likely candidate to go to the bench, not because he cannot hit but because he can, with a better than .300 average and an ability to swing from both sides of the plate in key situations.But that means more playing time would go to outfielder-first baseman Raul Ibanez or first baseman Richie Sexson, both of whom are performing poorly and hardly can be expected to be seen by Vidro, Jose Guillen, Ben Broussard or other teammates as deserving of extra at-bats.As if the Mariners didn't already have enough trouble coming down the stretch, now the team must contend with what likely will amount to a potentially unhappy clubhouse.

Adam Jones, Justin Upton get the call
2007-08-02 20:30:00 Big news in both fantasy baseball and real life today, as uber-prospects Adam Jones and Justin Upton got the calls for Seattle and Arizona, respectively. Both were posting astounding numbers in the minors. Jones was hitting .314 with 25 homeruns and 84 RBI in 101 games for AAA Tacoma, and was called up after going 3-for-3 and a homer on Tuesday. While his continued pace is amazing considering his age (22), I’m still wondering how steep the development curve will be for such a young, relatively unrefined hitter. As we’ve been deked by a Jones callup before, here’s what I wrote the first time around: Jones could very well storm off and post a second half that rivals Pence?s first half, but I wouldn?t count on it. With few exceptions (Beltre, etc), guys who do that well in the majors when they are 21 turn out to be the superstars of the game. Does his potential seem generational? Hardly. He?ll have trouble hitting for average, and strike out far too much. In 489 minor...

Seattle Mariners - Adam Jones Being Recalled
2007-08-02 19:24:00 Despite making no trades of significance, the Mariners are shaking-up the team in the midst of a pennant race. Top prospect OF Adam Jones will be recalled on Friday. The likely losers in this move are veterans Jose Vidro and Raul Ibanez. The move drew the public ire of RF Jose Guillen, who told the Seattle Times:"I just hope they understand this is not Triple-A,'' he told me [Geoff Baker, Mariners' beat writer]. "This is the big leagues.'' "I guess they have something to do but this is a totally different league. I understand he's a good prospect and if they think that he's ready, then hey we'll see. "He's going to have to come here and prove that to us. Because this team has been good with what we have and I don't think that's what we need...he's a No. 1 prospect and he's going to be here sooner or later somehow, some way, but I just completely don't understand that move right there. I don't know what they're trying to do. I hope they don't do so...

Mariners Weigh Deal for Top Prospect Adam Jones
2007-07-30 01:58:00 The sudden halt to the Mariners plans to call up top outfield prospect Adam Jones points toward a potential blockbuster deal in which Jones would be dealt for pitching before Tuesday's non-waiver trade deadline.Jones, 21 -- a 2003 second round pick -- is batting .313 at Triple A Tacoma with 24 homers and 81 RBI in 96 games. Jones had been thought to be ready for major league action some two weeks ago, when the team abruptly decided to hold him back.With the likelihood that an unexpected new offer for Jones was thrown over the front office transom, expect management to use what little time remains to carefully weigh all the options.

Adam Jones
2007-07-11 15:27:00 The Mariners have signed CF Ichiro Suzuki to a reported five-year/$100MM or so contract. This is noteworthy on a couple of counts. The first is the average salary of $20MM per year. This bodes well for the players who are going to be free agents this winter as it sets a target for them to measure relative to their own skills. Second, it means Ichiro will remain the cornerstone of the Mariners and likely be the first player to go into the Hall-of-Fame as a Seattle Mariner. Finally, putting to rest the nascent rumors that the Mariners will deal Ichiro rather than lose him to free agency are put to rest, and the team can focus, to the degree a play-off contender can, on what its 2008 roster will be. With that, the Mariners have recalled top hitting prospect, CF Adam Jones, from AAA and will make him their regular RF. Entering 2007, Jones was universally regarded as the top prospect in the Mariners system. Baseball America ranked him #1 in the system, and John Sickels gave him the highe...
