Resigning Brian Roberts

I kind of gave up on anything happening with BRob this offseason, but I guess Brian does want to stay after all.  According to Ken Rosenthal, Orioles have offered $30M for 3 years.   Brian wants 4 years.

3 years would take him through age 34.  That would probably be the ideal length for this team, but if it doesn't look like there is much of a trade market for Brian (and there doesn't), it may make sense to go for the fourth year.    If you're in the position the Orioles are, you probably don't want to commit to 4 years for a guy going into his 31 year old season, but we're pretty barren when it comes to middle infielders.
