DeRosa... No. Reynolds... Mebbe? :scratchchinhmm:

Our hitters don't have nearly enough K's so far this year.

Per Britt.

Right handed DH?

Yep, the O's sure made a mistake in letting him go. We'd have been so much better with Reynolds at his salary.

Haha, my thoughts exactly. That being said I would welcome Reynolds back at this point. Pearce has been pretty good lately, though.

He's due for one of his patented 2 week blazing-hit-everything-hard-hot streaks before he goes ice-cant-hit-a-beachball-cold. Pick up up for a couple weeks and then DFA him again?

That'd put us on a long win streak pretty easily

Now's our chance to make up for not signing him in the offseason.

Too much money for very little, if any, return. I actually like having him in our clubhouse though. I think he's one of those guys that helps keep things loose. The strikeouts are maddening for a guy that seems to have such a good eye.

You have to cheat and use the Orioles section if you want replies Tony.

I think the strikeouts are a coordination thing, the ability to put the bat on the ball, rather than swinging at junk. Sheriff and deputy are mirror images in that respect.

Tony started a thread even earlier. He used the MLB forum tho since there is no chance the Orioles bring Mark back.

[baltimoreO's22]

I would like to pick him up, just don't see the O's making that move at this point.

[Malike]

He was DFA because he wasn't contributing on a contending team. No thanks.

Fact: Reynolds' career .872 OPS in August is his highest in any month.... while his career .696 in September/October is his lowest.
