Dillon Tate - RHP - 2018 #17 Prospect


Tony-OH

Recommended Posts

I’m going to be interested to see what the new management does with Tate.    As noted in the write-up, the O’s brass converted him from a strikeout guy to a ground ball guy, with mixed results.    I’m not sure if the new guys will want Tate to stick with that approach.   Tate strikes me as a guy who might benefit from some good analytic information to help him hone his game.

Agreed.

I hope new management tells Tate to forget everything the Orioles taught him.

I think one of the interesting things to watch is whether the new guys will be able to use their analytic tools to improve the performance of players who are already in our system.   Especially the pitchers.

Sending a message I'm guessing.

No way he's on the 40 this offseason right?

Not sure about "sending a message." He was on the IL for a good amount (about a month,) so this seems like their "minor league rehab" stuff works (see: Hays, Austin and Diaz, Yusniel.)

Dillon Tate has looked a lot better since being moved to the Bowie bullpen.  Since then he has pitched 9 and 2/3 innings and has given up 2 ER while striking out 11 and walking only 1.  

If he continues to be dominant in a relief role I'd like to see him in Norfolk by August and hopefully gets a September call-up.  He will be 26 in May of 2020.  Need to see if he's worth a spot on the 40.

I agree. It looks like he is either a reliever or needs to lose his 40-man roster spot. Should figure it out over the last three months.

I wouldn't mind seeing him sooner than that. We can use the help.

    • I agree, except for the 'gotta find a taker for Urias'.  We should NOT refuse to improve the team just because we can't unload Urias on someone.  Sure, I'd MUCH rather trade him and get some value for him.  But if no one wants him or isn't willing to give us anything for him, I'm not keeping Mayo in the minors just because I'm not willing to cut Urias.  Trade him IF we can, cut him if we must.  But let's get Mayo's bat in the lineup.  
    • I am not sure why the Orioles would make a trade for Luzardo in the next few weeks.  Luzardo has too many question marks regarding his ability to help the Orioles this year.   Any prospects dealt in the next few weeks should for players who can get the Orioles win the World Series this year.  If they strengthen the Orioles for 2025 and beyond, great.   If the Marlins will give up Luzardo for pennies on the dollar, then go get him.  
    • I think I may. When I originally made this post, I honestly didn’t realize he wasn’t going to be back until mid to late August. That really hurts the time frame for him to get his value up for the offseason. I mean, it could get higher imo, I’m not doubting that. But if it was at peak in the offseason and he’s 70 cents on the dollar now, how much will it go up after making 6-8 more starts? 80 cents on the dollar?  Does that increase warrant keeping him and risking that it doesn’t drop more? I don’t think the deal I offered is a slap in the face offer but I do think it’s an offer that has good but not great upside. How much you believe in Stowers and Norby obviously matters here. However, it gives them good depth, immediate ML help and several years of control.    But I could definitely see Miami wanting a better headliner and less quantity..I’m just doubtful they can get that unless they hold onto him for another year and hope he stays healthy and performs well. If he does, he can make back that trade value at that time. But, as we saw with cease, sometimes the risk just isn’t worth it and you have to take the best deal you can.  
    • We know the real answer.  Let’s see if we get it.  Lol
    • Those guys would cost who else, whos the headliner
    • Right.  SG wants to get a bargain.  Even if Luzardo’s arm falls off after the trade, he didn’t give up one player it hurts to part with.      No reason for the Marlins to sell low unless they think Luzardo never bounces back close to the 2023 level.
