So basically, Roy's pissed because the Orioles said, "Hey, how about Oswalt for Tejada?" and (according to McLane and Pupura) the Astros laughed, said "Uh, no" and hung up. However, someone (Richard Justice, aka "Pinwheel" based upon his penchant for going in whatever direction the wind blows him) got hold of it, blew it up into "OMG THE ASTROZ R TRADING ROY O FOR TEJADA!!!!", and the Baltimore paper got hold of it and ran with it without actually checking their facts. Tremendous.
Well, I'm sure Roy will be mollified when the Astros open up the post Clemens-Bagwell-Pettitte wallet and give him his big payday when he becomes a FA in 2007.
