Heyman talking him up like he was a Boras client.

This makes me cringe. His power numbers might not be has high as 30 HR playing in AL Central Stadiums, but he will be very valuable to the Indians.

Good luck Mark. I was fortunate enough to meet him quite a few times and know him off the baseball field. Great guy, great husband.

Good for Reynolds. I believe the O's will miss him.

He just seems like a nice guy.

Watch him have a monster year next year...

Glad he was here, glad he is gone.

[dorfmac]

OMG I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING.

Kind of, at least. He showed he can play a decent 1B and we know what his offensive potential is. I wouldn't have wanted to let him go unless I knew we could replace his production.

i CANT BELIEBE IM SAYING THIS, BUT WE WILL BE SORRY WE LET MARK REYNOLDS GO...UNLESS DD HAS A MEGA DEAL WE DONT KNOW ABOUT.

One year 6 million with 1.5 million in incentives.

Well at least it's not in the division.

The love for mark is a little crazy around here..... had he not hit like 10 he's in 15 games he would have had a terrible year. He plays a very awkward defense making some easy plays look like he did something crazy and strikes out far to much. I don't have the stats bit unthinkable he would have a very hard time qualifying for a top 10 AL 1st baseman.

Yes now he needs to be replaced but as far as position goes I am very confident Davis will outperform Reynolds.

We should've matched that. I don't like this. DD better have an adequate replacement.

WHAT we wouldn't beat that! I wasn't real angry when we let him go because I assume that we would replace him wit someone better. Now I know that the off-season isn't over but still. I wonder if this puts more pressure on the FO and they try to force a deal somewhat. He took a pay cut to play on a lesser team. Morse isn't better than Reynolds.

I think he is much better defensively than you think. I will be pleasantly suprised if Davis' matches his defense. He is a flawed player and early last year I wanted him gone but at this point we haven't filled his spot. Once again the off-season isn't over but this looks poor on the FO if we don't find a comparable player by Opening Day.

This makes me believe DD has something up his sleeve. I don't believe for a minute that he really wants to go into the season with Davis at first base.
