Any thought to having Reimold DH exclusively? I think that would be his best chance to play a full season. If Young struggles or gets hurt, I don't see a better option to take over the DH spot than Reimold. In fact, I think he'd likely put up better numbers if he's able to stay healthy without playing the field.

I don't think any of us want to see him spending time in the field.

I may be the only one but I want to see him in LF. A heathly Reimold is a damn good baseball player.

Reimold was healthy last year and didnt do much for Toronto and he ended up with the Diamondbacks and they let him go.

Nobody else was interested, so what does that tell you, about expectations on what he has left?

Before injury in TOR he was playing pretty strong (1st half) - post injury (second half) he struggled.

                                                            Split       G GS PA AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI   BA  OBP  SLG   OPS1st Half    4  4 14 12 0 4  3  0  0   3 .333 .429 .583 1.0122nd Half   18  7 46 40 3 7  1  0  2   6 .175 .239 .350  .589

He has always struggled when coming back from an injury.

Once he recovered he played pretty well in AZ:

                                                             Split         G GS PA AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI   BA  OBP  SLG  OPS2014 Totals   7  4 18 17 2 5  1  0  1   4 .294 .278 .529 .807

There are no expectations. This is a low risk / HIGH reward. Thats what ST is for.

Fourteen plate appearances?

Low risk. Yes, I used that last off-season.

Don't hold your breath, expecting how things. Yes, I like the guy too, but my brain tells me, in 7 games, he didn't do bad, but that is very SSS.

Seriously, he didn't do enough to keep the eye of the team he was on, and it wasn't like he was asking for a ton of money.

With A & B rosters, always a need for extra bodies in ST, and that's all he will be.

At the end of the ST, he will be sent to AAA, or for assignment, you wait and see.

    • You mean a AAAA starter.  Sometimes I think he thinks he’s smarter than everybody else, so he does things that no one else would do just to prove a point. I don’t actually think he wants to spend money on free agents. I think he likes the idea of trying to be the smartest man in the room. I think his attitude is going to change somewhat next off-season, After his many blunders at the trade deadline. 
    • I don’t think this is true. He’s had a lot of games as you described and there haven’t been these ten post reactions to said games. He’s going to hit. Would it be nice if he was producing this year like the other rookie Jacksons? Of course but no one (that I’ve seen) on this board is rooting against him or suggesting that he won’t be a high caliber major league hitter. His defense is another thing but he’s going to figure it out at the plate at the MLB level. You’re right though - his nice game should have garnered more attention, especially with the way the year has largely gone for him. I’m not sure what role he has in the postseason other than maybe as a pinch runner. Right now I don’t think I’m putting him ahead of any of the lefty bats on the roster. I guess he’s the only other ‘SS’ they have on the big club so he’s surely going to fill a spot but I can’t think that he plays ahead of anyone, including Rivera right now. It will be interesting to see how Hyde and Co. deploy Holliday come Tuesday. 
    • Per Roch, Selby is the call up today, with Davidson presumably DFA.   Guessing today’s pitching looks like:  - Suarez (2-3 IP)  - Webb (1 IP)  - Soto (1 IP)  - Dominguez (1 IP)  - Coulombe (1 IP)  - Selby (2 IP) Bowman fills in gaps as needed.
    • Holliday and Henderson is going to be an elite top 2 in the lineup.
    • He’s also replaced the leg kick with a toe tap. At least with two strikes I noticed. 
    • Last year, of 8 WC teams: - 5 went with 12 pitchers - 2 went with 11 pitchers - 1 went with 13 pitchers I expect the Orioles to go with 12 pitchers. Given how Detroit mixes and matches pitching, we need to have enough platoon options.   I do think there is value in having more pitchers, even if it’s just an extra guy for mop up duty that saves pen in blowout game 2 so we aren’t running on fumes in game 3. However, I think 14 position players and 12 pitchers is the right balance for the wild card series.
    • I don't think this is true.  He's struck out 3 times a few times and gone 0-4 several times and 10 posts haven't been made. I hope he has a nice view from the bench during the playoff series and gets an at bat here or there if we're up big or getting blown out.  I'd like to see him put in a lot of work this offseason and start 2025 on fire.
