No one is going to give him a long term contract or tons of money. The Orioles two weakest positions right now are 2B and LF. I think the Orioles should offer him 2 years and compete with the money that any team out there is giving him.
He may be looking for a 1 year deal just to restore his "dignity" but I think he would take a 2 year deal. He could be our #2 hitter behind Markakis and we could have 2 guys with an OBP above .375....I still think he could be a .300 hitter. Plus he's played in the division before. He's not a good of a defender as McLouth but LF is the least defensive outfield position of the three and he's no Pat Burrell.
