Nolan Reimold News

Topps is unveiling its All-Rookie team this morning, and a certain highly touted and much-publicized Oriole went ignored.

Yes, the last dozen years have been particularly painful for Baltimore Orioles fans, but as we observe the Thanksgiving Holiday we still have much to be thankful for.

Nolan Reimold received a well-deserved accolade for his strong debut season on Wednesday, when he was named to the 2009 Topps Major League Rookie All-Star team.

In a league that not only recycles its roster but switches affiliated teams every fall, the Phoenix Desert Dogs were five outs away from a sixth consecutive Arizona Fall League championship on Saturday.

A vote. A vote? A vote. Being invited to help select this year's American League Rookie of the Year as a new member of the Baseball Writers' Association of America was an unexpected honor, and one I took seriously.

The 2009 season was a breakout year for Orioles outfielder Adam Jones, and it ended on a high note.

Obviously, no one should be surprised that Andrew Bailey was just announced as the American League Rookie of the Year after the great season he had out of the Oakland A's bullpen, but I am a bit surprised that neither Brad Bergesen nor Nolan Reimold registered a single point in the balloting.

The ushers wore orange shirts, orange balloons floated above the seats, and everyone who entered Ed Smith Stadium on Saturday afternoon was offered black-and-orange Baltimore Orioles caps and pennants.

In celebration of their new spring training home, the Baltimore Orioles will join with The Greater Sarasota Chamber of Commerce and Sarasota Convention and Visitors Bureau to host Orioles Family FanFest-a free event for the entire community-at Ed Smith Stadium on Saturday, Nov.

Can we all agree that we're going to hear more World Series stories in the next week than we ever wanted to? Good.

Nolan Reimold was a second round pick in 2005, out of Bowling Green University, where he'd hit .360/.496/.770 with 20 homers, coming in second in NCAA Division I in slugging.

One of the worst seasons in franchise history, which recently included one of the longest losing streaks in team history, will not cost manager Dave Trembley his job.

Sure, it's unfair to judge the Orioles manager solely by the team's cataclysmic collapse since the All-Star break.

Braves: Bobby Cox will retire as Atlanta's manager after the 2010 season, ending a career in which he guided the team to 14 consecutive postseason appearances and the 1995 World Series title.

"I was actually coming out of salsa lessons," Montanez said with a laugh. "They were ringing my phone like crazy, and I was in a salsa lesson working my hips." Montanez said his hips are loose and he hopes his swing is too.

There was a time earlier this season when the Orioles couldn't find playing time for Felix Pie.

Another regular dropped out of commission on Friday, giving the Orioles even fewer competitive options.

Orioles outfielder Nolan Reimold's solid rookie season has come to an end. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list today and will have surgery Wednesday to repair the Achilles tendon in his left foot, which will keep him sidelined for three to four months but shouldn't affect his status for next season.

Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Great, After a miserable post-All-Star break performance, the Orioles are providing fans with some September highlights.
