Jim Duquette Liked The Orioles Picking Up De Aza And Johnson
Jim Duquette is a former Orioles GM who is now a radio personality on XM/Sirius radio.
Jim joined Ed and Steve to talk about the new Orioles acquisitions and how they will perform in the playoffs.
Jim started by talking about the new Orioles acquisitions saying "I liked them both, Kelly Johnson was a guy I wanted them to get around July 31st...right now he's not having a very good year but I like him from a versatility stand point." Jim also shared a unique inside perspective on being involved with rain delays and how tough it is to stay loose in older ballparks and the "mental grind" of trying to stay in games when you have no idea whether the game will be called or not. Jim also talked about the playoffs and who he thinks the Orioles match up against best.
