When is the time right for Reimold?


Kevin Lomax

Recommended Posts

I was curious what others thought when it comes to seeing Nolan in Baltimore again.

Is there a certain threshold he needs to pass? For instance if he has an OPS of x over the last x games, bring him up?

Is it just wait until rosters expand?

Do we plan on leaving him down for the rest of the year unless he really goes on an amazing streak?

For reference.

Please, opine.

Maybe getting to .250 would be a start???

Everytime he has a good week these threads start about when should be be up, he's finally healthy, he's back to the Reimold of old, etc. It's time to just let him play and see what he does. He doesn't deserve any at bats over Scott, Patterson, Pie, Jones, Markakis, or Wigginton so I don't see how calling him would be a good idea considering he shouldn't be a starter.

Whether LF or 1B, when he does come up, like Bell, he should play every day so that Showalter has a real chance to evaluate him. I'd like to see that happen now and not wait for rosters to expand in September. I want Buck to see what these two can do against real major league pitchers and not against watered down September rosters.

Disagree. He deserves at bats over Patterson and Wigginton. Those guys won't/shouldn't be on the team next year.

For record, I was starting this thread not as a all those things you said above, more so as a question that would help us quantify statistically or in some other way, when the time was right? I wasn't saying now is the time. I was asking when is it appropriate. When has he finally gotten healthy, back to the old Reimold, etc?

I dont know what everyones problem with patterson is...he has the 3rd highest avg on the team and almost 20 sb's. I think he could be a great 4th outfielder next year.

No problem with Patterson. He's done great for us this year. Are we just going to ignore the rest of his career though?

He's not part of the future that's all. Reimold, though time is running out, still has a chance to be. Or at the very least could up his value in a trade.

If it's a question of whether Reimold or Patterson gets playing time, Reimold should win every time. I can't believe it is even a issue.

Getting Reimold straightened out should be one of this team's top priorities. If you have to sit Patterson to do that, you do it. He is Corey Patterson, for crying out loud.

    • the question isn’t about being able to make the offers, it’s about being awarded compensatory picks for more than one.
    • I don’t consider a 4 o’clock game a night game. He also caught Wednesday night and Thursday day this week. Moral of the story is McCann will start 4 games in 7 days because he is Burnes preferred catcher.
    • It is absolutely possible. In 2022, the Mets gave a QO to Bassitt, Nikki, and DeGrom. The Red Sox gave a QO to Boegarts and Eovaldi. The Yankees gave a QO to Judge and Rizzo. The Dodgers gave a QO to Turner and Anderson. I know that it seems to be a foregone conclusion that Santander will not be on the team after this season, and while I generally agree that it is more probable than not that he will not be re-signed, I do think there is a non-zero chance that he will be retained. I think he is the most likely of Mullins, Hays, and himself to be retained, even if it is a small chance. The team has told us how they feel about his bat because he plays essentially everyday, and I have heard Kostka say that they value his clubhouse presence.
    • Santander won’t get a QO, and if he did, he would accept. His defense is declining and we have too many capable youngsters who should replace him effectively. But to your question, I don’t know if there’s a limit, but I doubt it.
    • O's will probably have to wait till July for a trade because there are so many more buyers than sellers.  I think teams like the Blue Jays, Rays Tigers and Mets are likely to be sellers but they are still in the race although not very good teams as constituted. 
    • No Scott. He’s way too undependable. We need someone who WON’T enter a game and walk folks like he’s promoting a healthy lifestyle. He’s been a lot bette4 this season, but he’s too undependable, and we already have too many of those. No Flaherty either. That’s like taking your GF back after she cheated on you.
    • The team's continued success has really put Elias on the spot IMO and I don't see a Flaherty type as an option anymore.  My money is on a sensible trade that comes at a price high enough that most of us here, including myself, won't like, but a premium comes with having bad luck and that's where the O's are at the moment.
