This one is really anybody’s guess.   Nice to be at no. 19 and have 10 plausible names for the next two spots.   I went with Ortiz/Vavra because they’re the furthest up the ladder and have done well to this point.   Of course they have big question marks after being hurt the majority of the year following strong early performances.

We’re about to be 20 spots deep into this and again, no relievers, 1B/DHs,or former top prospects that were clinging too because we have nobody else. 
 

I think we’re going Rhodes and Trimble here because of upside but also Vavra/Ortiz we’re having good beginnings of the season at Bowie before they went down with injuries. It’s not crazy to say that those two would be looking at starting next year in AAA had those injuries not happened. 
 

We have Gunnar and Westburg as our big time prospects for the infield. However, the depth of Urias, Mateo, Guiterrez, Grenier, Jones, Ortiz, and Vavra is a luxury of Middle Infielders that has taken us years to build. Bowie’s IF is going to be crowded and may force an early promotion for Westburg and/or Vavra to AAA.

I agree with you here.

I am surprised that the voting is not closer than it is, though.  I expected a lot more parity in people's assessment of talent/potential this far down the list.  The Ortiz/Vavra combo is running away with the voting.

Is the polling done now? I'd be curious to do a big 21-30 poll. Could be a lot of ways to go with that part of the list. 

I wasn't sure there would be much interest after 20 when it comes to order.. I could do one like 21-25 I guess..

Go back and read the draft threads. Rhodes and Trimble were not guys that were supposed to be there when we picked and for what we signed them for. Both draft eligible sophomores that got “2nd round” money. Lots of upside. 

I don't get the sense that Tony's as high on them as some others are. It would be really interesting to see where they might fit in a list 2-3 years ago versus now.

There's still Rhodes, Trimble, Haskin, Willems, Bautista, Young, Craig, Deson, Williams, Hernaiz, Mundy, Servideo and at least a couple of DSL guys that are worth keeping an eye on.

I'm not saying most of these guys will pan out, but several at least have a chance. I mean, who knows what Trendon Craig will turn into? But he was picked over slot, came with some hype and got invited to instructionals. That's interesting at least.

Plus Watson, Peek, Sedlock, Kevin Smith, Neustrom. Even if they are low ceiling guys, you've got several guys with a good chance of making the majors in some capacity.

      Who is going to end up the best career catcher? Wieters or Rutschmann.

      By Gurgi · Posted

      Baring injury Adley gets more War. Who do you want up to bat in a winner take all playoff game? Who do you want behind the plate with a Rickey Henderson type on first base in a tie ballgame 9th inning? I really bought into the switch hitting Jesus thing with Wieters.  This disappointment (perhaps misguided) led me to really not want to use a 1/1 draft pick on a catcher.   I am kind of wishing we went with Witt.   I think I heard people saying the most important position on defense is catcher.  So how does it compare to SS or Centerfield.   Would you be better off using Rick Dempsey type all glove and arm with light bat or going all in on a 1/1 on a catcher? If this has already been discussed tons dont yell at me I sometimes go months or weeks without posting.

      Glad Bob Melvin and I don’t see eye to eye on that issue Well said, that make two of us, Bunting Ced down 5-3 with nobody out that late in the game is absurd.

      Sorry to hear this--wishing you a sound recovery, in time for the O's run to the Series! (That would speed up the healing!)

      Anthony Santander 2024

      By maybenxtyr · Posted

      Santander is a good case for the Rule V draft. That's unfortunately the same system that's going to make his next contract potentially look bad. If only he were a couple of years younger. It's hard to commit 25+M to a player at 30+. He's going to be missed in Baltimore, on the field and by the fans, but he's someone that they're going to have to let move on.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      By sevastras · Posted

      While I agree and find your comment funny, maybe just say something along the line of”Don’t give up on this team” or “Quite being Debbie downers” instead of assuming they are projecting the own misery in their lives. People might take it better if it doesn’t feel like a personal attack. Either way, that win felt good and I HOPE this is finally the turning point going into the playoffs soon.

      I've made it clear that if they don't sign Santa and Burnes I'm ok with it as long as the money is allocated to other players they feel that fits their profile better .You know you have people on here like SG who only hears what he wants to hear. I need to learn to ignore that guy.
