He and Alex Seixeiro talked about fantasy baseball at Pitch Talks yesterday lol.

 

The Reimold thing is truly disheartening. How can that happen.

 

I don't believe that, to be quite honest.

 

P.S. Were you there, or is there video of the event?

I wasn't there. The Twitter feed for Pitch Talks posted about it though:

 

 

I don't know why not to believe it. Gibby also said earlier in the offseason that it wasn't a very tight clubhouse; I can picture nobody wanting to take the lead in welcoming Reimold. Hopefully Martin and Donaldson will turn the tide.

 

The source bothers me, that's why...meh. Also, thanks.

Very talented group!

 

I have to say again, wish I was there for the lulz. I've heard in the past that JC and GZ are a gas when the beer is flowing...:P

Gibby needs to be a better classroom leader

 

"Ok kids, we have a new student in the class today. This is Nolan from Baltimore. Everyone, say hi to Nolan.

 

Hi Nolan!

 

Cito, can you please be Nolan's buddy today and show him around the school?"

Reimold spoke to the Baltimore media a few days ago at spring training, saying how "Baltimore is the only place he feels comfortable" and how happy he was to be back, etc. I'll find the articles in a few minutes

Reimold looks like a generic MLB player made out of 2K. They probably thought he was David Cooper.

 

Reimold CLEARLY has a chin...

To be a douchebag, you must hit the baseball like a man (Bautista; Bonds; Adam and Andrew Jones; Arod).

 

Reimold is a joke.

This made me wonder what became of him. Signed a MiLB deal with Baltimore this month. I wouldn't have minded bringing him back as OF insurance. His skill set is pretty limited but at least he's healthy unlike Dirks.

The whole Dirks situation sucks. I recalled discussing with BTS that it shouldn't be too much of a concern cause he played in the minor league last season. Now I am eating crow on this situation. Ichirio would have been better depth. Oh well, at least we have Pillar!

Pillar is my Jays sleeper. Be prepared for 2 Wins performance.

Ezequiel Carrera was a good pickup. It's kind of ironic that the Jays got him from the Tigers because in some ways he gives back what was lost when Gose was traded and unlike Gose he has options.

Those are hilarious! Man, the trouble those would start up today though!

 

Yeah the Braves stuff doesn't come off too well now but the feeding LSD to the Cubs is still funny and just insane by today's standards.

You didn't have a strong opinion on it either way:

 

Yeah I read through that thread and I saw that post last night. This confirms that I always saw Profar as a riskier prospect and this was when Bautista was still getting injured every year. I don't think I ever would have made this trade, which isn't to say that I would have been right for holding that opinion, because Profar can still easily become a star.

Reimold and healthy in the same sentence? He's as fragile as they come.

I was gonna make this post but I thought I misread the OP and assumed he was talking about someone else. Reimold is made of glass.

I knew that he'd been hurt his whole career, but had no idea the instances were that serious.

 

Frayed achilles tendon?

Bulging disc removal and fusion???

Cervical Vertebrae Fusion!!!???

 

Dear lord.

Yeah, the fact that he hit the 60-Day DL for "neck soreness" a year after his second spinal fusion surgery should probably be really concerning.
