.A day after expressing some frustration after he was left out of the Orioles' lineup, shortstop Miguel Tejada said his reaction was spurred by the team's recent run of losses, not by manager Dave Trembley's decision to give him a day off. When asked before Thursday's game about Luis Hernandez playing shortstop, Tejada said, "At least if they have somebody else, they can trade me somewhere else."

The Orioles need to trade him. They have a few good young players, but if they want to keep them, they'll need to free up some money. There's plenty of contenders looking for a solid SS like Miggy, why not sign him up?

I meant trade him away.
