Fontenot for Robert straight up would be amazing and even TreyZz would have to worship Hendry for a day. Unfortunately, it might take 7 Fontenots to get Roberts.

Sources say that Orioles second baseman Brian Roberts will be traded to the Cubs as soon as the Orioles decide which pitchers they want in return. . . .

Still Quiet on Roberts

Orioles President of Baseball Operations Andy MacPhail said he expects all to be quiet on the Brian Roberts trade front until teams are well into their spring training game schedules. MacPhail has said Roberts has drawn interest from several clubs. Multiple reports have said the Chicago Cubs have shown particular interest.

"At this stage, it's the natural inclination of clubs to bear down on the different names and see them in person to see how things may have changed between last year and this spring," MacPhail said. . . .

This has got to be frustrating for Cubs fans. Although it looks like a sure bet.

The Orioles have done this to 2 teams. The Bedard deal dragged on for a long time and this deal has dragged on for months.

DeRosa won't alter Cubs' plans
http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball ... 26.article

Some in the organization think the Cubs won't get Roberts at all after watching the last three months of on-again, off-again talks play out. The Orioles want pitcher Sean Gallagher, infielder Ronny Cedeno and two more top young players for Roberts.

If the Cubs add anyone before the season starts, it's more likely they'll land an established outfielder who can back up all three spots, such as Boston's Coco Crisp or (less likely) Texas' Marlon Byrd.

Veal may be the 3rd player agreed upon......on to #4

So according to him:
1) Cedeno
2) Gallagher
3) Veal
4) ?

As long as Marshall or Colvin arent involved Im happy. I dont see the last player being a great prospect.
