Having missed out on the Teixeira Sweepstakes, the Orioles appear to be looking at Richie Sexson as an option for filling their current vacancy at first base, says Peter Schmuck of the Baltimore Sun. According to Schmuck, "Club officials apparently have had at least one conversation with Sexson's agent, Casey Close, though the depth of their interest is uncertain."

Peter Schmuck / The Schmuck Stops Here : Orioles: Sexson an option at 1B? — The Orioles still are trying to figure out what they'll do at first base this coming season, and they've given some consideration to attempting a salvage operation with former 45-homer guy Richie Sexson. Club officials apparently have had at least …

I am going to split up the infield to the corner infield (1B,3B) and the middle infield(2B,SS). Any player who can play multiple positions will be listed at their primary position, but I will mention what other position they can play. Richie Sexson - Sexson is not the same player he was when played for the Brewers, but he still has power ability and no major injuries recently....

... focus on OBP! Yes, Dunn can spank the ball but a .236 average and 160 K's a year! That guy is a Richie Sexson clone. Good luck M's fans---he's gonna kill you more than save you. The only upside would be that Norm's in Fremont could start up "Adam Dunn beer nights"! #236952Posted by at 1/5/09 3:46 p.m.I wonder why Zduriencik is hestating to sign a DH bat or is it that I se the Terrible...

... rumors I find myself cringing a bit. I can’t help but look at a potential Burrell signing as Richie Sexson 2.0. Yes, Burrell could feasibly have a Sexson-esque crash if he came to play at Safeco Field, but there are a few reasons why he could be a decent option at DH. One, he’s not going to get the four year deal that Sexson got. Two, he’s not going to get the $14M annual...

2008 is almost behind us, and with it, the worst year in Seattle sports history. You know a city is having a bad year when its biggest fan is forced to draw inspiration from the possibility of watching Jose Vidro, Willie Bloomquist and Richie Sexson play the last-place Washington Nationals. The thing is, though, Seattle's sports year isn't even that bad yet as Big Lo lies in the hospital...

... combined for -3.3 wins, led by the trifecta of suck known as Jose Vidro, Wladimir Balentien, and Richie Sexson. As a whole, the Mariners got 8.2 wins from their non-pitchers, worst in all of baseball. A playoff caliber team would get between 25-35. As for the new guys, Franklin Gutierrez was worth 1.7 wins last year (in 440 PA, no less), Endy Chavez was worth 0.8 wins (in 298 PA),...

... indeed, the starting first baseman, then the Yanks give back some size. There's always hope that Richie Sexson comes back though. If the Yanks get Mike Cameron, the outfield becomes average sized. Right now, it's below because of Gardner in center. Still, the team seems big compared to most, especially compared to Boston, which I speculate is the smallest team in baseball. I have...

Well, this is what happens sometimes wwhen information comes from outside the organization. It turns out that the Mariners had talked about Adam Dunn internally, but they haven't talked with his representatives. As one Mariner executive said, ''do we want another Richie Sexson-type guy, but with maybe more power? I don't know.'' Right now they apparently don't, although it does seem to...

Richie Sexson'Bavasi always played the offseason as if he were one big paycheck away from winning the West.And each mistake set the Mariners further back, until new general manager Jack Zduriencik was hired to clean up this mess.Late Wednesday night we got our first serious look at Zduriencik's...

Too bad --he would have been a good fit for the Pirates' bench. The Mariners, who dumped Richie Sexson at midseason last year and whose best option at first may have been journeyman Bryan LaHair , should have playing time for Branyan.
