I know he ended up being overslot, but it’s rough that the Orioles took Norby when James Wood was available. Wood was a Olney, Maryland kid that went to IMG. Guys like that shouldn’t escape local teams especially since they are more likely to play decommit to play near home. He was a 6’7” athletic freak. Tough miss.
It’s crazy to me how I hear some talking head on the MLB channel etc acting like hie isn’t basically untouchable. There aren’t a lot of guys in the minors I would take over him. He also is getting a little more time at first it appears.
Ragans wasn’t that highly thought of when they traded him. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/rangers-boost-bullpen-with-aroldis-chapman-trade/
He also hasn’t been nearly as good as he was for the short stretch in 2023. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/cole-ragans-666142?stats=statcast-r-pitching-mlb
Good post.
Yeah I have noticed he has been really REALLY cold in almost all of the Os loses. When he hits the Os seem to win most of the time.
When he doesn't hit? They lose almost all of the time. Odd to see a team so reliant on one player the Os are with Gunnar.
