| Angelos Has Yet to Approve Bedard Trade
Orioles owner Peter Angelos hasn't yet signed off on the proposed deal that would send Erik Bedard to Seattle, according to a source familiar with the Orioles' internal discussions.The same source also indicated that Angelos wasn't informed of the particulars of this latest proposal until late Sunday and that he won't be available Monday to confer with the Orioles' baseball officials because of a personal matter.This makes sense. MacPhail denied there was a deal in place yesterday, but that was probably just because he had yet to speak to Angelos. And since Angelos is notorious for wanting to be involved with every major baseball decision, it probably wouldn't be prudent to make him feel completely out of the decision-making process by having him read about the deal in the morning paper. Assuming Angelos doesn't completely undermine MacPhail's efforts to do his job, I'd expect this Bedard-for-Jones swap to become official sometime this week.
