Valentine: O's job would be 'a big challenge'

Orioles managerial candidate Bobby Valentine discussed his recent meeting with team owner Peter Angelos and president of baseball operations Andy MacPhail...

...during a Monday appearance on ESPN Radio's The Michael Kay Show.

During the interview, Valentine told Kay: "I did go down there and I did talk with the owner (Angelos) and the general manager (MacPhail) and they have a whole lot of problems and they seem like they're really putting their heads together to try to solve them somehow, some way, [but I'm] not sure how."

When asked about whether he'd be willing to take a managerial position where it might be difficult to win, Valentine said: "It's a big challenge. I like big challenges, but I like to have some reward too, and the reward is in the standings and their standings don't look like they're going to turn around very quickly."
