Angelos killed Roberts/Bedard deal?


According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Orioles' owner Peter Angelos killed a deal between the Cubs and Orioles, a reported 7-for-2 deal.


The trade would have sent 2nd baseman Brian Roberts and left-hander Erik Bedard to Chicago for 7 minor league prospects.


Another source says that there was no such deal and says there were no serious discussions between the two teams. It's well known that Roberts is a favorite of Angelos' and has been reluctant to trade him.
