5/14 - O's at Royals: Reimold's Debut

[SimplyZ]

Well since there was some criticism last night about the boards selective criticism of the defense...

Great Play Roberts!

[BigWilly1231]

That has some effects on the guy at the plate now.

I think it has more to do with Pie

[Bosibus]

Yea. Finally we are going to have a decent LFer with some pop.

Luke Scott says hello.

I disagree, but I really don't want to turn the game thread into another extend Pie/Reimold debate.

Nice DP there to end the inning fast. This game's going to go quickly at this rate.

Luke Scott says hello.

Poor Luke, he gets traded by certain posters every other day and now forgotten.

[Hank Scorpio]

You can gauge that by a line-out to short? I'm impressed.

Am I the only one that doesn't think the ball was hit all that hard?

Yes, that ball was scorched.

No. I can gauge it by his 9 hrs in AAA so far this year.

That ball was hit very hard by my eyes. But I don't wear Pie glasses.

Thank You!!!!!!!:clap3:

Oh, okay. As long as I'm the only one, I'm good.

[weams]

I was about to ask where you had run off to tonight. You're late, sir.

Hello J.D. We ARE being patient.

[TyCobb]

Luke Scott says hello.

haha I love Luke.

Sorry, was not my intentions. Ok back to the game. Great hit Roberts

[isestrex]

Slump or not... Roberts is just destroying the ball recently.

[Skeletor]

For some reason, I got the idea around here that Reimold had a long armbar swing. There doesn't seem to be a lot of extra stuff going on. Quick and direct to the ball.

[J.D.]

Grow up. I'm not rooting for one more than the other. I just don't see the merit in waiving Pie when he's starting to improve during what is a season in which we're not going to compete for a playoff spot anyway.

More than happy to admit I'm wrong in that case. That sort of thing happens.

I'm glad you can gauge things quickly in small sample sizes, though. Especially with a notoriously streaky hitter. I sure wish I had that ability.

Edit: This is the LAST thing I'm saying about Pie vs. Reimold vs. Montanez in this thread. I've never seen this place root so hard against a player. It's honestly and completely disturbing, and I'm not so certain that I can say anything about it rationally anymore. It's RIDICULOUS that it's become this huge, polarizing thing. I hope, sincerely, that one of them steps up and holds down the position so we don't have to re-hash the same darn discussion thread after thread, with both sides acting completely superior to the other side with such snark and disdain for the players in question. It honestly makes me not even want to read most threads anymore.
