Reaction To Mark Reynolds Trade From Baltimore And Arizona Fans

The SB Nation sites for the Orioles and Diamondbacks are reacting to and analyzing the news of the trade that sends Mark Reynolds to Baltimore for two young relievers. Camden Chat‘s first reaction is, "It’s definitely preferable to Chris Tillman. Mickolio has had his troubles but both he and Hernandez are young power arms, so it does make me think twice."

Meanwhile, AZ Snakepit says:

I will be sorry to see [Reynolds] go: he hit some of the most majestic homers I’ve ever seen, worked hard on (and improved) his defense, and earned massive kudos for speaking out in the clubhouse a couple of years back. But no team – especially one that lost almost a hundred games last season – can ever improve by standing still, and I understand the need for change, painful though it sometimes is.
