Corey Patterson has been tearing the cover off the ball since being signed by the O's batting .368 in 14 games for the Norfolk Tides. He has 5 doubles and also stolen 3 bases. Patterson who also played for the O's a couple season backs looks to get back to the majors and could be leading off for the big league club tonight as all signs point to him being called up. The O's are struggling as a team and need a proven lead off hitter and someone who can get on base. While one player gets called up someone has to go down and signs point to Reimold as he is struggling and could use the everyday at bats down in Norfolk. If its not Reimold the only other candidate to go down would be Lou Montanez. At the moment these are just rumors but does make sense as the O's hold the worse record in baseball at 9-24 while standing 13 games out of first place.
