Today's boston globe sports section
It's probably time they were the ones who got burned after some of their antics on agreed to deals.So the Orioles thought they had a deal with a guy who tried to renegotiate then backed out? That must suck for them.

Oh you mean all those guys that were clearly screwed over by physicals when they were healthy? Zero problem with Gallardo, the money is the same just less guaranteed after some shoulder problems. Didn't do that with Ubaldo on similar innings so something must have been up
Go find me a deal that was negotiated after the physical besides Gallardo. That player was injured and sucked with their next team (Grant Balfour! Tyler Colvin!), if they are even still in baseball at this point.
Also, opt outs are dumb.
The reporter hates us defense? Stop.
The Gallardo deal validates the point, as the Orioles used the "after the deal was negotiated" physical to shorten the deal and reduce the money knowing (from the Rosenthal article: "(Angelos) uses medical reasons to kill or change a deal if he doesn’t like it") that Spring Training had started and Gallardo was out of options. OK, so everyone from Ken Rosenthal to Jim Duquette to Frank Wren to Mike Cameron are all out to make up stories about the Orioles. Right...
Also, two playoff appearances, one ALCS and no W-S appearances in 17 years = irrelevant. Camden Yards is a great place to watch a game. Be happy with that.
Rosenthal HATES Angelos and the Orioles BTW and doesn't hesitate to be unbiased towards them.
Rosenthal is a well known Orioles hater. And Pilchard's post is simply crap.
Fowler agreed to a deal, then changed it. Casey Close is an idiot.
Of course the GM is not going to throw an agent under the bus
