Yes that 's what my dumb ass saw. I almost never wear my glasses because my covid mask fogs them up. I thought I was seeing completed architecture, not some architects drawings.

Let's break him down.
126 at bats, 20 singles, 8 doubles, 1 triple, 19 walks, 32 strikeouts
No homers, only 3 for 5 in steals.
Only 8 errors in 34 games at short. 13 double plays .940 fielding %.
Hopefully, he'll add some power next year in Florida. He may never be a basestealer.

Elias says it's just as good as the Sarasota Complex. 3 baseball fields and dorms, kitchens and weight rooms. Koby and Felipe Rojas Alou also provide insight.
Elias proudest moment. He has other failings but Latin America is his strong suit.
He also said Latin America is just as important as the draft.
My smartphone won't provide a link, sorry.

Sept 23 completion of August 20 game.
Millionaire shortstop Maikol Hernandez went 3 for 4 with his 3rd steal.
Hitting about .200 with a .600 OPS.
Maybe he struggles to get his long arms through the hitting zone,
Very young 17 year old. Would be a junior in an American high school.

Tuesday Sept 21. Orioles 1.
Millionaire catcher Basallo hits his 7th double.
Way underrated 3rd baseman De Los Santos hits a 2 run Homer, his 3rd. 5'll, 185 lbs, $350,000 bonus ( I think) converted shortstop.
Shortstop Frederick Benscome goes 1 for 3 for "other" DSL team , Orioles 2. Hitting about .300 with about an 0.800 OPS. His bonus was probably only 5 figures, 18 years old, 6' 160 lbs. Outperformed any and all other orioles shortstops in DSL. Bats lefty, 2 homers, 8 for 9 steals. Some scout was own their toes !!!!!!

Monday Sept 20. Orioles 1. Ronnie Martinez hits his 1st Homer. $275,000 bonus , 6 feet 185 pounds. Watch for him.
Junior Lara has another ho-hum 2 singles in 3 at bats. I saw a video of him. Pound for pound he makes LOUD contact and plays a speedy centerfield.

Thanks for telling me !!!!!

Credited with 14 swings and misses.
Wonder when did the Pod People assume he and Hays body ?
-
You're right. I'm stuck under contract with Dish till 2023. If the next general manager produces a contender this decade I'm interested. Cox costs a lot more than Dish and I hate Cable TV already.
Maybe the next owner will provide stand-alone streaming at something reasonable. Say $10 a month ?

96.0 mph
95.7
95.4
95.2
Lowther had the most swings and misses, 14.

I have Dish. MASN is not offered. None of the local
Hampton Roads cable or satellite companies offer MASN.

I omitted the word pitcher. My fault C of C.
-
I don't think they want to sell. I think they want to move to a bigger, warmer climate. Charlotte ?, Las Vegas ?, Mexico City ?
Clearly they want the situation to get more desperate. They should have been Drafting those near MLB-ready pitchers beginning in 2019 after Rutschman early and often in the 3 Elias drafts.
I would be happy to be wrong.

I don't think anybody is going to trade you good , controllable young pitching for surpass, excess marginal outfielders.
There's a saying in baseball. "Good, young controllable pitchers are the Coin of the Realm"
-
Orioles drafted 4 college outfielders in the first 4 rounds of July's draft.
It tells me they don't believe in all the outfielders they drafted in 2019 and 2020.
And they have little confidence in most outfielders in the organization, majors or minors.
-
Hays reminds me of a quarterback facing the Prevent Defense. The game is lost so the defense gives him meaningless yards, 1st downs and completions.
His final stats look respectable. When in fact he contributed little when the game was on the line.
On a pennant contender he's a platoon outfielder or VERY good 4th outfielder. But hey, he's young enough to change the equation. Become a switchhitter ?
I'm just a FAN. Fan is short for Fanatic. Meaning my reasoning is highly suspect and open to criticism.

That gives us an insight into how they feel about their DSL players.
Last year they brought 11 DSL/Tricky League players to Instructs.
Cubs start next Monday, the 27th, and play 20 games.

I apologize folks.
On my little smartphone I don't even see a link to post to you.

247 wins to 232 losses in the full season season teams.
Ugly 29-62 in the Gulf Coast League.
The DSL would be too ugly to look at. Just concentrate on all the player development this year. We can spend $6.26 million on the next international class on Jan 15, and the top 2 targets have been identified.

RHP Jean Pinto.
82 strikeouts in 62 innings, 0.78 WHIP. Best whip of any full time starter in the system.
I actually called this very early. Based on his early work for Orioles Black I thought he would surpass Garrett Stallings.
Tell Frobby I CONCUR. He and I speak that Legal mumbo-jumbo.

The righthander Ignacio Feliz was a stud at Delmarva, and A dud once promoted to Aberdeen. He was chosen in the Minor League part of last year's Rule 5 Draft
I'll be watching for him next year, maybe he can pull it together. Only 20 or 21 years old I think.

Print those playoff tickets !!!!

Lacy is currently down with injuries.
I suspect he's been nursing an injury all season and kept it hidden.. That would explain his crazy wildness.
Dominican Summer League - 2021

Acevedo and the other 2018 signees played 2019 in the DSL at age 17.
Thanks to Covid time off he played the FCL 2021 at age 19. So 2 years more mature. Same for the 3rd baseman Ramirez another 2018 signee
The 2019 signees played this year at age 19 in DSL or FCL. Many were rushed to Florida to fill out the 2 teams. Their 1st pro season and they had no DSL experience and they stunk. I'm thinking about the biggest 2019 bonus signings.. $400,000 shortstop who couldn't play short or hit.
The 2021 signees showed a lot better. They all played in the DSL.
I like that myself. They all played meaningful games, not TRICKY LEAGUE exhibitions.
