Should O's Add New Blood to Stagnant Offense?

Looks like others realize the same. Sometimes minor changes can help.

Maybe we should just trade our roster for Norfolk's. Those guys actually produce.

Norfolk team OPS- 631

Oriole team OPS- 729

Pearce's batted ball data suggests a turnaround is coming. I'm less confident in Davis and wouldn't be against shopping him and giving Parmalee a chance. Reimold has had a good couple of games recently but still hasn't done much at Norfolk.

Producing at AAA, does not always translate into producing in the majors.

Another quick fix is to let guys actually producing (Snider) play.

I wouldn't be opposed to cutting DeAza, using Davis in RF some and giving Parmelee a few starts to see if his swing can translate to the majors this time.

Reimold getting plenty of CD's at bats works for me.

As long as that doesn't mean Reimold actually playing first base.

From what I hear that experiment ended badly.

What is Hardy's status? I haven't seen any mention of it. If he gets DL'd we're down another infielder before Flaherty is ready.

Reimold would have to play defense, I don't consider that an option. Of course, I wouldn't consider that an option for Delmon Young either, so...

I have never really seen minor changes help much. That's why they are minor.

Considering how quickly they ended the first base experiment I think he would do less damage in the outfield.

Absolutely agree, but still don't want him out there either.

I agree.

I don't understand why Snider is in the "doghouse" and why people don't think he's useful when he plays.

Jimmy is a DH. Nelson is a DH, Delmon is a DH/PH, Clevenger is a DH, Reimold is a DH. And we all see how well Oakland is doing with that.
