Ken Rosenthal at FOX Sports is reporting that the O's will not be trading Miguel Tejada.  As an O's fan, I thought this was good news based soley on the the story's headline.  I love Tejada and want him to stay in Baltimore. But then I read on.

The O's owner Peter Angelos has proven once again to be the worst owner in all of Major League Baseball.  He apparently rejected a trade that would have brought Roy Oswalt to Baltimore:

"The Orioles rejected at least one blockbuster trade — Tejada for Astros right-hander Roy Oswalt, shortstop Adam Everett and a third player.

Either deal could have changed the direction of the Orioles' franchise, but owner Peter Angelos refused to approve any trade involving Tejada, a decision that is certain to be second-guessed."

How could the decision possibly not be "second-guessed"? I would think Tejada for Oswalt straight-up would be a great deal for the O's, let alone adding Everett and a prospect into the mix.  Once again, I am completely amazed by the stupidity of Angelos.
