We haven't seen the intl signing blow up as a huge prospect yet but it is coming soon.  There are several pitchers and hitters that are described as high end potential.  I can't see 1 or 2 of these not blossoming into that.  Especially since most of these are 16-18 yrs old at signing.  Maybe I am just being very hopeful but I do like what i've read and the few videos i've seen of some of these kids.

Let’s see where Keith Law ranks us before we celebrate too much

It’s not a joke.    You can’t openly trade for a player who isn’t on the 60-man roster, so any player who’s talented but pretty far from the majors becomes a PTBNL.    The O’s have 6 of them, most of

The exception to this might be the player in the Castro trade. The additional player or cash might be determined by how Castro performs. I don’t know what the Orioles would by looking for a modest amount of cash in these deals.

Could even be international slots, who knows. 

I could see an international player option or pool money. 

Do we know if leagues (DR, Venezuela, Mexico) are playing?  Maybe scouts are in place to evaluate a few players and ME can choose slots or from a small player list.  I don't really see anything on those leagues and I don't know if MLB has authority to control baseball being played in other countries.

I'm honestly not satisfied with this ranking. By the time this tank-rebuild is ready to move forward, I expect that the system should be ranked top 3. Stack the deck on the farm so heavily that you can't miss no matter what. Otherwise you put the fans through a half decade of crap baseball for nothing.

I'm still on board with the strategy and I'm not saying that they're behind-schedule... but the farm system has a ways to go still before I'm happy..

I say this without having looked at other teams' systems so maybe I'm totally wrong but...

It seems to me like it would be impossible to have a Top 3 system without significant international presence.  Which the Orioles are of course just now trying to get into under Elias.  So it would take quite a few years for that presence to make an impact and get to those levels.

I don't, and didn't imply that I did.  I just don't think he should be getting sole credit for the ranking as the post I was responding to implied.

I mean, the very top end were here but the main reason for being where we are is because of the depth of it. Most of that has been brought in via Elias, including some of the IFAs that are getting ready/already sprinkled in to that top 30.

Our farm system hasn't been this filled with solid 40-45 guys in a long, long time. 

 

Not to mention it could be argued Elias got more for relievers/meh pieces this deadline than Duquette got for School, Machado, etc. Which is pure insanity.

This is clearly a much better run team that has a deep farm system due to the guy currently here which speaks volumes considering how short his tenure has been already. We'll see if these guys work out/it continues, but we wouldn't be close to top 10 with the past regime these past couple years as far as farm ranking. Fairly confident in that

If Diaz isn't the prospect now that he was when Dan traded for him who does that fall on?  Dan or Mike?

How did Elias get more for relievers and Meh pieces?

So he’s in the organization....the problem with the Orioles system as they can’t develop talent. 

That statement assumes that the opposite of the problem would be that they CAN develop talent.  And if they COULD develop talent, they'd be in the top 5 every year and graduating guys to the majors with no problems.

@Can_of_cornI have no idea what that picture means you weirdo.

It was bait, much like your post.

      Who will pay Burnes $400M this offseason?

      By Hallas · Posted

      Am I crazy for thinking Burnes isn't going to sniff Cole's deal?  I'm thinking like 7/260-280.  I don't think he's going to sniff Cole's deal.  For starters i dont think hes as good a pitcher as Cole was at the time of his signing.  Also, the Yankees aren't going to be in the bidding so that leaves the Mets, Giants, Nats, Orioles as teams that can afford him.  The Sox could too, but they're on the fringe of contention and might opt to develop more with the Yankees and Orioles solidly ahead of them in division.  Only the Mets from that list really seem like teams that would go over 300m for a pitcher, but they will be pressed for money because of the luxury tax.

      Agree a strong RHP bullpen arm that misses bats would be good to add. Looking at Spotrac I don’t see who it would be. Dominguez could certainly be someone that could fill this role.

      It looks like I misread your post as being about last offseason instead of the 2017-2018 offseason.  My mistake, but does that in any way affect my overall point - you know the part that I made explicit and you left out of your response - that all the old, reflexive Angelosian nonsense no longer automatically applies? I'm unclear on what you're driving at, especially if I have to go back to the 2017-2018 offseason when Peter Angelos might still have been giving input on running the team.  I think it's a stretch to try to draw parallels to those days, or even the John Angelos years, to David Rubenstein potential as an owner.

      Irsay stealing the Colts in a midnight sneak away is in my top five depressing B-More moments, as well as the dreaded We Are Family Pirates in the ‘79 series. Otherwise, it’s a good bad list.

      I forgot the name of the movie, but Jimmy Fallon was playing a BoSox superfan (tough role for an NY kid) and it was during the era of the ‘curse’ (right at the end of it actually) — a kid he was coaching asked, “What have the Red Sox ever done for you?” His character didn’t have an answer. But it made me think. The movie was out during the 14-years of losing seasons. I asked myself the same question about whether a lifetime of fandom was worth it. For me, outside of my family - 15 generations or more on the Eastern Shore - the O’s are also part of my DNA.  Win, lose, lose horribly, lose ugly, bad ownership, they just can’t shake me. All that said, I totally understand the frustration. It will take me a little longer to heal from this ugly exit to 2024.

      In the market and $$$ for SP = Mets, Cubs, BOS, WAS and SFG (depending on Snell opt-out).  That’s enough chairs when music stops for Burnes and Fried to cash in, and still ample for second tier Eovaldi, Manea, Kikuchi, Flaherty.
