The Javy Lopez saga took another turn yesterday as Chuck Berry, the agent for the displaced catcher, rescinded his trade demand in a conversation with Orioles executives.
"We've had several additional discussions this week with the Orioles, and we have withdrawn our trade demand," Berry said. "We have decided that Javy will go to spring training with the Orioles."
The change of heart - the second for an Oriole this offseason after shortstop Miguel Tejada's withdrawal of his trade request last month - comes exactly a week after Berry had told The Sun that Lopez was "adamant" that he either wanted to have his contract extended, or he wanted to be traded, before reporting to spring training.
