How good is he?  I know he was old for AA, but then got called up to Norfolk.  Better than Dosch?

They are both filler, so I’m not sure it matters. Outside of Mountcastle (who is hurt) there’s very little 3B prospect depth. For this reason, either could potentially get a cup of coffee one day but a “Feliz vs Dosch” isn’t really a conversation worth having.

That’s what I figured.  Thanks!

I'm a bit biased as he was my host player when Anderson played here in Lancaster in 2015 but I think he's as good a filler as you can find. Definitely a solid player defensively and flashes of good offense. He's a good utility guy...has played solidly at every position in infield and outfield . When he's playing regularly , like he is now in Norfolk, Anderson will do well. I project him as a cup of coffee type guy...he gets his chances he will make the most of it though. I don't see him as more than a filler guy, unfortunately  guys from the Indy leagues are rarely seen as more than roster fillers these days. I can't compare him to Dosch or even Mountcastle but Anderson is not a bad guy to have on a roster. I think there are intangible things here that can't be measured...but like I said...I'm rather biased!

      Yeah, I don't get it. I mean, Urias can play 2B. Leave Westburg at 3B like they did with Gunnar at SS and let Mateo and Urias split 2B duties for now.

      He doesn't have to. But yea, whomever is running him out there is going to decide to.

      Updated SABR Defensive Index rankings

      By spiritof66 · Posted

      I have attached a link to the latest SABR Defensive Index (SDI) player rankings, updated yesterday for games through June 7. (Although I'm pretty sure I've posted one or more of these in the past, I couldn't find a previous thread on SDIs. It doesn't quite fit under Gold Glove awards or discussions. But then again, I often can't kind my phone, my keys and/or my wallet, so there may be an extant thread that is eluding me.) https://sabr.org/sdi The SDI is a compliation of defensive statatics: "A composite measure of fielding based on five fielding metrics and computed by a committee working under the auspices of the Society for American Baseball Research. Four of the metrics comprising it are zone rating statistic; Chris Dial's Runs Effectively Defended, John Dewan's Defensive Runs Saved, Sean Smith's Total Zone Rating, and Mitchel Lichtman's Ultimate Zone Rating. The fifth metric, Michael Humphrey's Defensive Regression Analysis, is based on conventional fielding indices but uses statistical procedures to rid them of bias. The Index constitutes 25 percent of the method used to determine Gold Glove Award winners."  I belive zero is supposed to be league average. The Oriole highlight of the update is that Gunnar Henderson is first among MLB shortstops, is tied for fourth among all AL fielders (Texas' Marcus Semien is way ahead of the rest of the field), and is tied for seventh among all MLB fielders.  Here arevthe rankings for the Orioles among qualifying AL fielders, with comparisons to qualifiers on the team we're chasing right now. Some of the rankings seem quite odd to me, but in a rare moment of conciseness I'm refraining from comment. Pitcher -  Burnes is 21st, with a negative SDI. Three NY starters (Cortes, Stroman and Gil) are ranked higher than that.  Catcher - Rutschman is eighth. The NYYs' Jose Trevino and Austin Wells are third and tied for ninth. 1B - Mountcastle is fourth (highest among AL East 1Bmen). The NYYs' Anthony Rizzo is sixth. 2B - No Oriole qualifier. The NYYs' Gleyber Torres is seventh of nine qualifiers, with a negative SDI. SS - Training Gunnar in spots 2-4 are Volpe, then Seager and Witt in a tie. 3B - Westburg is fifth, one spot behind the NYYs' Oswaldo Cabrera.  LF - Cowser is third, well behind Verdugo in first. CF - Mullins is tenth (with a negative SDI). Judge is tied for fourth. RF - Santana is tenth (with a negative SDI). Soto is tied for second.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      I understand, but Crochet is going to run into an innings limit later this season.  He would then have to go to the pen this season.   We do need help, no doubt about it.  It will be very interesting to see how Elias handles who he targets and what he's willing to deal away.

      That is true, and a lot of the “badness” has been Westy him himself. I think he’s a very fine player, and I don’t want to sound disparaging, but I would much prefer that he be at third all the time.
