Apparently the O's are following the yo-yo philosophy with their young players
Tillman and Bell will be lucky to avoid motion sickness this season.
Yes he is
Just consider the Richie Hebner quote from Britt’s article on Reimold.
“He had some success up there, and now he’s down here and he’s seeing guys bypass him,” Hebner said of Reimold, who hit .215 with six homers and 18 RBIs in 50 first-half games. "[Josh] Bell got sent up, [Scott] Moore got sent up. And he’s thinking, ‘What the heck am I doing here?’
so...
according to richie hebner, reimold is norfolk’s answer to the piano man?

I started reading weaver on strategy last night and in it he says eddie Murray only started switch hitting the year before he got called up?
yeesh.

Maybe Bell is the anti-Murray.
He can stop switch hitting the year before he gets called up for good.
Right? Right?

just as long as he gets decent playing time
but i don’t think that’s going to happen. him and foxy lady will be battling for playing time.
Don't mess with the bull, young man. You'll get the horns.
Foxy will be at C hopefully some days

I'm guessing foxy lady will get one maybe two starts at C if Wieters moves off the DL as expected

Dumb.
Dude was clearly overmatched when he was last up here, and sat way too often. He needs the time to work and improve, not just strike out every other at-bat.
