Nolan Reimold (hamstring) could begin a minor league rehab assignment early next week. Orioles manager Buck Showalter said Monday that Reimold could begin his rehab stint by the end of the week, but he apparently needs a little more time. The good news is that he has been taking batting practice without incident. The 29-year-old has been sidelined since May 11 due to a strained right hamstring.
