The 3 and 4 way deals are not making sense because they don't have the genius Billy Beane to help them sort it out!!! They gotta get Oakland in the party!!!

The O's should have went for P-Dub but it looks like he's an Astro now. Perhaps they can look at Hidalgo on a cheap contract? A HUGE flier on Juan Gone? They really need a corner OF and a CF but the CF market is dry unless they want to get Patterson from CHI (doubtful).
