Reed

Reed, 26, made his major league debut in May and went 1-for-5 in nine days on the roster. He hit .292/.316/.458 in 271 AB for Ottawa. A career as a reserve seems unlikely.

Reed went 1-for-5 in nine days on the active roster.

Reed, a longtime prospect for the club, went 2-for-10 in 10 games. Daigle, who posted big numbers in the White Sox system last year, was 0-for-7.

Reed, 27, went 1-for-5 in nine days on Baltimore’s roster in May. He batted .292/.316/.458 in 271 AB for Triple-A Ottawa. He’s strictly a Triple-A player.

Reed was hitting .265/.282/.480 for Ottawa. Even with two starting outfielders out, he shouldn’t get many starts. The Orioles will use David Newhan and Larry Bigbie in center, Bigbie and B.J. Surhoff in left and Jay Gibbons and Bigbie in right. They can all mix in Jeff Fiorentino at each spot and use Gibbons at 1B and DH. Reed shouldn’t be picked up in AL-only leagues.

If the Orioles wanted someone to come up and play, they would have chosen Walter Young. Reed, who was hitting .265/.282/.480 for Triple-A Ottawa, should find himself glued to the bench.
