Freddie Bynum traded to Orioles

The Baltimore Orioles website is indicating that the Orioles have acquired Freddie Bynum from the Cubs for a ptbnl. In the report it said it was to be a pitcher that is currently not on the Orioles 40-man roster. This trade is good from the standpoint that the Cubs now have a spot on the team (not 40-man roster) to add a better bat off the bench. As I stated earlier, I would be all for getting Ryan Church for the bench.

Cliff Floyd has been rumored to be in talks with the Cubs, I am hoping this is just a rumor and doesn't happen. Floyd is often injured and getting up there in age. His last season was his worst season since his rookie year in 1994.
