The Hero of the Modern Age
I actually thought he was a pretty good analyst. Hell, he wasn't the best player, but he was a decent guy, and knew what he was talking about.
Personally, I don't want to watch Tim Kurkjian drool over the days' events, and marvel over stats all of the time.
Then, John Kruk's alright, I guess, but every time I watch him I feel like he's going to bust out a hot dog and chow that down.
To sum it up, I actually thought that Reynolds did a fine job on the show, and that Baseball Tonight is setting itself back with his firing.

His biggest problem is that he appears on a completely worthless show. Do we really need to overanalyze a single game which represents 1/162 of a team's season? Most of what they say on Baseball Tonight is a complete waste of time because by the time the next game rolls around, they've completely changed their opinion about something because the guy/team they are talking about it playing better/worse

I'm not sure how so many have ragged on reynolds, and nobody has mentioned this buffoon. The fact that they staged fake press conferences constantly with him places him at near Trev level.

The only time I ever hear Steve Phillips is on the Mike/Mike show on the way to work. He's pretty stupid.
He was babbling about how A-Rod will never succeed in NY and that there is nothing A-Rod can do to make the fans love him. Gee, I guess being a World Series and playoff hero won't do that?
Total dumbass.

The problem is that Reynolds doesn't scream constantly and try to talk over everybody while saying nothng of substance like Screamin A. Smith. Calm normal dialog based on analysis has no place at ESPN. Flamboyant yelling meant to rabble rouse simpletons is what gets you on the air on that station.

He started all the A-Rod trade bullshit to begin with. I love how ESPN makes their own stories, then covers them for weeks at a time.

Not by a long shot. Reynolds was knowledgable, articulate, and highly professional...no one on Baseball Tonight was better. I'm actually stunned at his firing...

Beat me to it. I was going to say they would be re-introducing this assbag's staged pressers.I'm not sure how so many have ragged on reynolds, and nobody has mentioned this buffoon. The fact that they staged fake press conferences constantly with him places him at near Trev level.

Exactly. Fuck actually just covering what happens and giving a opinion that doesn't need to be screamed. Also Reynolds would actually let people make a point that was different than his rather than just yelling over them.

Knowledgeable and professional, no doubt. I disagree that Reynolds was articulate though. He was fine in small doses, but I've found his dialog to be mostly repetitive, when he didn't get tongue tied or lose his train of thought.
He's a very likeable guy, I just don't believe he added much to Baseball Tonight that any one of a hundred other ex-players couldn't bring.

Doubtful they'd fire him over some coke. Why?
Michael "the Playmaker" Irvin.
I rest my case.

Hey now, that crackpipe cops found in his glove box wasn't his, he took it to protect a family member from themself.
I liked listening to Harold do games during the Little League World Series with Brent.

Oh, that's right. I forgot. God love that Michael Irvin. His altruism knows no bounds.
