It’s tough to find bright spots for a team that has lost five of their last seven games, but I’m going to anyway so just get over it.
Last night in Toronto, Mark Reynolds made his return to the Orioles lineup after a DL stint and minor league rehab in Bowie and he went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a walk. As O’s fans know, a walk is huge for the free swinging Orioles slugger.
I’ve always been accused of being a Reynolds apologist simply for my opinion that the Orioles need to keep his bat in the lineup. The power that he can provide is too valuable to pass up.
Who knows if Reynolds really suffered an oblique injury or if the O’s decided to give him a couple weeks off to clear his head. The DL stint was the first of his career and Baltimore signed veteran Miguel Tejada to put some heat on him and hopefully provide some depth if his early season struggles continued.
Though one game isn’t nearly enough to draw any conclusions from, I was impressed with what I saw from Reynolds against Drew Hutchison last night. He seemed to be the only person in the Baltimore lineup that showed any patience against a 22-year-old starter with 5+ ERA and had the only multi-hit night.
None of this will matter come September,,,,,,,,,,actually it doesn’t matter much right now……….
Spy,
You are such a buzzkill.
The truth hurts……
I came into this season with minimal expectations. Sniffing .500 was my hope, but not expectation. The quick start has made some of us forget that this team still has a little ways to go.
No matter how you slice it, Spy is still a prick.
And what do the ladies like , all together now say it ‘PRICKS’ ,,,,,,,,very good ladies………
Hey,
I’m pretty sure the oblique injury was fake too, given JJ Hardy ribbing Reynolds about how no one ever goes on the DL for an oblique strain…but what I don’t get was why did they need him to clear his head…he was just getting hot, right?
Spy a plick. hahaHahAhahahaha. a plick that what Spy he be, a plick. Spy come in BSR sniff 2inchnail butt. Chow lock the house. Chow got find he Ho’s and have palty with Mr. oriole85 (he plick to but chow have have guy who like tummy stick with spy), Mr. mgw, mr Intimidatol, Mr smoke, Mr. 2inchman, mr. laven2469, mr stan fan, Mr. POLE, mr. zach, mr malk. 2inchman and spy lelationship like dlunken olgy of love.
You call 9inch , 2inch,,,,,,,,,you must not judge everyone by yourself , I bet all the boys laugh at your tummy stick efforts………
Reynolds would look better with:
a. getting rid of the 1980ish sideburns
b. less strikeouts
c. more home runs
d. Spy’s girlfriend’s phone number
e. all of the above
Is that Starsky or Hutch?
