Orioles manager Buck Showalter plans to ease Nolan Reimold (neck) into action this spring. Reimold was limited to just 16 games last season prior to undergoing spinal fusion surgery, so the Orioles are just playing things safe. He's not in either lineup for Wednesday's intrasquad game and isn't expected to play on Thursday, but it shouldn't be long before he gets back into the swing of things. If healthy, he figures to see at-bats between left field and the DH spot this season.
