I have always thought we were going to get him and still do. There is just way to many coincidental things going on for this not to go down. Plus Peavy has pretty much made it known the only team he is going to accept a trade to is the Cubs.
I don't think this is similar to the Roberts deal either. In some respects I guess you could say that it is but I think the similarities are few. I sure don't remember the Cubs trading for the exact pieces that the Orioles wanted like they have with the Pads. I also don't remember the O's cutting payroll last off-season like the Pad's have this off-season. Those are just a couple of differences but probably the biggest differences in the two.
