Reynolds to Baltimore?

[mweir145]

Nice buy low for the O's. And they didn't have to give up Tillman.

Does this change Reynolds value at all?

I think it goes down a touch, but it's nice that he's coming from a division that already had strong pitching.

It's like you don't even pay attention anymore...if we've learned one thing over the years it's that the NL West doesn't have good pitching, just poor hitting and pitchers' parks.

More like overrated pitching, because of poor hitting and pitchers' parks.

And I've learned that the AL Central has overrated hitting due to hitter-friendly parks and poor pitching.

[Fenway Punk]

I think Mark Reynolds will strikeout a lot this year.

Wow. Talk about putting your rep on the line. Why not pick a safer topic like why you shouldn't take Hanley Ramirez in the top 5.

Not that it would make sense, anyway, but did you mean the AL East?

Actually, I should have said AL West, because Texas is inexplicably not in the Central.

Sucks for baseball to see Toronto and Baltimore both building solid baseball teams that won't contend because of the division they're in.

You mean like the Rays?

Someone get menyak on the line. mweir is hacking accounts!

To be fair, the Orioles wouldn't contend no matter what division they were in.

Perhaps....but with a solid offensive lineup and Matusz blossoming they at least have the potential to field a good team in the next couple years.
