@Tony-OH, this is really excellent work this year. Thanks for all of the time and effort. This informed background, particularly on so many guys, is second to none.

Thanks. Glad you enjoy all the work that went into these. More to come on some others coming up.

Definitely enjoy it. I love this stuff and, at best, I'd have to go a bunch of places for each individual player to even begin to piece together this much useful information. It would be impossible for me to do.

Haskins hit, game power, and defense scores seem quite low for a second round draft pick.  Seems like we could have got a player with this skill set in about the 6th round and for much cheaper.  Did we miss out on a better prospect?  Like a pitcher?

What he said. And, a ceiling of 4th outfielder seems low also for a 2nd round pick. What were they thinking??

Yah for unrealistic draft pick expectations.

If a second round pick makes it to the majors as a regular part of the 25 man roster that draft pick was a success.

You'd probably like your #2 pick to have a ceiling of any everyday player (which he had, according to his 2020 profile. https://www.orioleshangout.com/2020/10/19/14-2020-prospect-hudson-haskin-cf/

Haskin has dropped 15 spots from #14 last year. Seems like a bit of a miss. Not a big deal, you can't expect to hit on every single player.

The same can be said for any round draft pick.  But shouldn’t the ceiling be higher for a 2nd rounder?

Also I'd expect to see a second rounder higher than #30 on the team's prospect list. Then again, if he was #14 last year, that seems more within an expected range. But then we come back to @Yossarian's point about the limited tools.

    • Why was only Judge mentioned if it's obvious? Don't make stupid omissions don't get obvious fact checked.
    • Wieters had a career fWAR of 15.5. Adley is at 14.3 in less than 3 seasons. Its Adley…by a mile.
    • Santander is a low OBP, poor BA, mediocre fielder with very little base running value player.   He has great power and can carry a team. He’s a really good dude, solid in the clubhouse and a great representative for your franchise. In many ways, he is exactly like Trumbo even if he is the better player.  And even if he doesn’t fall off as dramatically as Trumbo did, he’s still very likely to fall off.    For what he will cost, you can bring in some solid pitching. Next years offense, barring any trades, should look something like this: 1st-Mayo, 2nd- Holliday, SS- Gunnar, 3rd- Westburg C- Adley OF- Kjerstad and Cowser Basallo potentially ready by midseason or so. That leaves you with decisions on Mountcastle, Mullins and OHearn and I guess Santander. You need to get right handed. Mounty is a righty but unless you are moving Mayo to the OF, you need him to play first. Do you keep Mounty around to be a 1st/DH if Mayo is also going to play the OF?  Maybe. Some RH bats to consider: Tyler O’Neill. Having a really nice year.  Strong arm in the OF but struggles out there otherwise. Not a great fit for OPACY LF. JD Martinez: Still can hit but zero versatility. In a game that values that, do you want to sign someone who doesn’t give you any?  On the Os, it may be ok but I tend to doubt they would. Duvall: Good defensive player. Abysmal with the bat this year but was very good last year. buy low guy who could provide some bench value. Robert: Been awful this year and had injury issues in the past. WS have already said they will trim payroll after this year. There are very few ways for them to do that, especially since Benintendi has no value. Robert will be made available. Great spend, very good in the OF and still a tremendous offensive upside. He will cost a lot less to acquire than last offseason.  The Os reportedly were interested in him before. Teams like the Dodgers and Mariners were linked to him at the deadline. There will be competition for him and maybe the Os don’t have the same depth to trade out of that they did in the past, so it may be tough but they should look into it.
    • Captain obvious enters the room
    • Gunnar got his 20th SB the other day.  I was curious and looked at his sprint speed vs Ohtani.  His is 28.8 vs 28.1 for Ohtani.  It made me appreciate even more Ohtani’s 50SBs. 
    • Please do.   Zero people have said don’t spend money. You are lying. 
    • I see we now have 23 people that have lost their mind. 😂 well, I don’t think they’ll be a 24th.
