October 14, 2005 -- ST. LOUIS — Mets senior VP of baseball operations Jim Duquette interviewed yesterday in Baltimore for an upper management position with the Orioles and could be on his way to receiving an offer.
According to a baseball official, there appears to be a good chance that Duquette, who was the Met GM in 2004 before Omar Minaya's arrival, will be offered a position with Baltimore along the lines of a co-general manager.
Duquette's interview yesterday was with current GM Mike Flanagan (who used to be co-GM with Jim Beattie) and general legal counsel Russell Smouse, and the session lasted more than five hours. Duquette, who is also a candidate for the vacant Phillie GM job, is expected to hear back from Baltimore in the next week or so.
