Confirmed by Orioles as of 11:02 PM EST on 11/14/11.
The Orioles organization agrees to the terms of this trade, as one of our big needs is young productive pitching. We felt that Jordan Pacheco was expendable because he was blocked by Mike Moustakas, and that he deserved a chance to earn a starting job. Jose Fernandez was a young arm that we liked a lot, but felt that he is not an immediate answer to our pitching need. The first round pick is one that could have obtained a valuable prospect, but at this point we feel the tools we need to compete are already on this roster. Now. So we commited to putting the immediate success of our ballclub ahead of the future because we made it to the ALCS last year, comng just short of a crown. Anything less than a crown at this point is a dissapointment, so we must acquire the piece that is necessary. We wish Jordan, Jose, and whomever is drafted with that pick all the success in the world in St. Louis, and hope they understand the purpose of their being traded.

The draft picks really tend to make these trades confusing. Jaime Garcia is a very good SP and the Orioles are trading pieces that have not proven anything yet.. Fernandez is only 19 with a long way to go...Pacheco is a good defensive catcher but is def no superstar. He is 25 already and probably wont be the starter in CO next year. The first round pick is nice but not enough.
Veto

Veto, I dont think this is enough for Garcia. I think a higher prospect and the 1st would do it
