Just curious, but what material are you reading? I'd be interested, but have no idea where to go other than this thread. Lol. 

If Elias does what we all hope, we'll want to become more familiar with the DSL talent over time for sure.

Mostly stuff on this website.

Gomez (17), Acevedo (16), Bellony (17), and Cruz (18) batting 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th are all off to solid starts, while De La Rosa (20) batting 4th is off to the best start of the group.  Sounds like a good group to follow.  My guess - from what I've read and gleaned is that Bellony and Acevedo are the ones to keep the closest eyes on.  

19-20 is pretty much “old” when considering DSL talent. To be real prospects these guys should be stateside by then in the GCL.

Agreed - that's primarily why I separated De La Rosa from the others.

DSL Orioles 2 are batting combined  .188/.285/.251 , good for 44th out of 45 DSL teams in OPS. The DSL 1 team is closer to the middle.

Meanwhile the DSL Orioles 2 are actually 1st in the league in ERA. 1.58 over 62.2IP.  DSL 1 team is 7th with a 2.96ERA over 70IP.

Oh I got you. I appreciate anyone that calls my attention to anyone on the DSL teams. Seems like we haven’t even bothered bringing too many players over the last few years. 

So Elias has said we will have record signings once this period starts. Will any of those guys play on a team this year?

This is awesome.  2 DSL teams, full of eager (mostly) teenagers, signed and playing as Baltimore Orioles.  More new signings all the time as we have to fill 2 rosters... The young staffs are using the “secret sauce”,  the young hitters are.........unpolished?

 

I don’t know why this is more fun for me this year, but it is cool background noise.  The teams can be followed at M I L B . c o m, somewhere in there.

GO O’s

Added 6 more signings:

6/5 Andry Mercedes
6/6 Isaac Solano
6/7 Anthony Morillo
6/12 Julio Herrera
6/12 Manuel Duncan
6/12 Joldanny Genao

Where did you find these?  Are they all recent international signings, or do the dates just mean that’s when these players were added to the active rosters of the DSL 1 & 2 teams?

    • I wanted him in the offseason. 
    • 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.
    • The Red Sox got picks 132 and 133 for Eovaldi and Bogaerts.
    • 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.   
    • 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.
