Geoff Baker at The Seattle Times writes about the trade that has sent Erik Bedard to the Mariners:
The deal for Erik Bedard is finally official. It's the 5-for-1 that's been reported: Adam Jones, George Sherrill, Chris Tillman, Cam Mickolio and Tony Butler. I'll be at the Safeco Field newser in a couple of hours.
Jeff Zrebiec at The Baltimore Sun writes about the impending trade to send Erik Bedard to the Mariners:
The Orioles and Seattle Mariners have agreed to the framework of a deal that would send Bedard to the Mariners for five players, including young outfielder Adam Jones, according to two league sources.
However, the deal is not official until all of the primary players involved take and pass physicals. Jones and relief pitcher George Sherrill, two of the centerpieces of the Mariners' package, were in Baltimore yesterday to take their physicals, according to sources. The Orioles are known for requiring extensive physicals, and it's common for team officials to not get the complete results until a day after the examinations.
Jason A. Churchill at Prospect Insider writes about the Mariners and their pursuit of Eric Bedard:
I have it on pretty good authority that the Seattle Mariners and Baltimore Orioles may very well be making significant progress on a trade involving left-hander Erik Bedard.
Unfortunately, if you are an M’s fan, the word is that the Mariners may agree to include Carlos Triunfel in a deal along with Adam Jones, and perhaps one other player (George Sherrill, most likely), due to their stance on trading Brandon Morrow.
