miss worried
I was worried that he was going to leave. I wasn't worried about what he was thinking. He made his own decisions. That's his career. Would we miss him? Of course, but there's nothing we could do about it.
baltimore blue city convince feels front loves money names office saw spending teams toronto wants
He just wants to tell everyone it has nothing to do with the city or the fans. He saw the Toronto Blue Jays getting big names and saw all the teams spending money and we don't do anything. He feels he wants to give more to Baltimore fans. He doesn't want to be traded. He loves Baltimore and the fans. If the front office doesn't convince him they want to win, then he wants a trade.
knew needed
He knew we needed to eat. We didn't have much money.
joking looked telling
He looked like he was 22. I'm telling you, he wasn't joking around.
against fault hope personally
I hope he doesn't take it personally because it's nothing against him. It's not his fault. It's the coach's fault because they never called me.

He threw well. He's going to be good. He needs to learn to mix up his pitches more.

He threw outstanding. He mixed all of his pitches. The slider was working today (and) he worked out of jams.
best hitters
He's one of the best leadoff hitters in baseball.
strike umpire
He's not wild. He was around the strike zone. It's just that sometimes the umpire doesn't give him what he wants.

hurt moving appreciate
I don't appreciate the disrespect, because I've been playing hurt for a guy who won't respect you. I don't deserve it...It's time for me to move on.
agent center free negotiate prepare third trying
I'm trying to negotiate my contract. If I don't agree, I'm going to be a free agent as a third baseman, not as a center fielder. The Orioles are my family, and I need to prepare for the season.
expected loss oh team
Oh my goodness. That's a big thing. It's a big loss for the team if Tejada leaves. I never would have expected him to make such comments.
