Adley shut down for 2-3 weeks

So with the new rules granting draft picks for players on opening day rosters, if the injury delays Adley, would he still potentially be able to get the 2 weeks service time for the extra year of control AND be eligible for the draft pics awards if he was on the DL to start the season for example? Not sure how that works.

I believe they would have to add him to the 40-man then DL him, which is not going to happen.

Not unless they worked out an extension, which frankly already should have happened.  That makes this all moot.

In fact that is the way to game the new system as it takes out the calculation of whether you take the risk of a lost year of control to get a draft pick.

I would guess we would have to put him on the major league (26 man) roster and then put him on the Major League IL for the draft pick, and that would make it impossible to get the extra year of control because being on the major league IL is the same as being on the team.

Is he already too old to be considered a prospect?

Jeez going on 25 and not in the majors

Bobby Witt Jr, and my guy CJ Abrams will have 3-4 years in the majors before they turn 25

Never draft a college hitter, and never ever draft a catcher with a 1-1. Just say no.

He quite possibly is already past his prime, Manny Machado had his best season when he was 22.

I mean, you might as well just release him now.

Hey I hope he still ends up a good starting catcher for 5+ years, but the high impact, MVP type player that you should be seeking with a 1-1 he is not. 

Gee, what a failure Adley is.  He hasn't even made his major league debut and has already failed.  I wonder if it is too late to trade him for real prospects.

Adley is 39 days into being 24 years old. He missed one year due to COVID. The entire planet with exception of Keith Law considers him the best prospect in baseball, so that alone means you are wrong about drafting him 1-1. To say he is past his prime immediately outs you as someone not deserving of attention on this message board.

I don’t know why people respond to that guy. He’s just seeking attention.

I know the Rays are sure happy they passed on Posey at 1-1 and took Beckham instead.

    • Sure there is a ton of noise in those stats, just like there is in most/many stats.  But too many are acting like Santander is so good that he's irreplaceable and that our lineup is going to suffer by his absence.  He simply isn't that good of an all around hitter for the team to really miss him.  And while there is a ton of noise in the noted stats, they do show that at least this year he didn't show up big when we needed him.  Sure, he hit a handful of big home runs in some key situations, but by and large he wasn't really effective or impactful with RISP and came up very small in many key situations, along with the rest of the stinking team.
    • And in 2023 he had a .305 average and .919 OPS with RISP. I don’t think he suddenly became unable to hit with RISP. There’s a ton of noise in those stats. Nobody on this team creates a black hole by not being in the lineup in the future, even Gunnar. It depends on team construction, return on trade, etc.
    • I think the answer to this question depends upon how much you believe in Kjerstad (I think Mayo is ticketed for first base). I personally don’t based on what I have seen in Norfolk and Baltimore because I question whether he will get to his power due to his swing decisions, and think he will struggle with major league off speed pitches. He’ll also be in his age 26 season next year and, although that isn’t really his fault, I think the AAA numbers need to be viewed with his age in mind. I will be rooting for him to succeed because I want the Orioles to win. I just don’t have the same confidence in him that many seem to.
    • Nope, see the above post.  He was 11th on the team in BA with RISP and 12 in OPS with RISP.  That isn't exactly a guy that's carrying a team when it matters or someone that's going to create a back hole by not being in the lineup in the future.  
    • No one did, including Santander.  And that's why we are sitting home now and had a bad 2nd half of the season.  None of the others though are a free agent expecting to get 20M a year or more.  That said, with RISP he was a .234 BA hitter with a .736 OPS.  That BA with RISP was 12th on the Os in 2024, while that OPS was 11th, though admittedly some of those above him were SSS guys like Stowers and Rivera.  That's not exactly someone that 'came up big'.  When he's up with RISP, or any other time frankly, I expect one of three things.  A home run, a strikeout or an easy out.  He's not going to do much else.  And we already have too many of those type hitters on the team, though none with his home run numbers obviously.  We really aren't going to miss his one dimensional bat as much as folks are acting like.  Give him the QO and wish him well.
    • He was third on the team in win probability added, but I am assuming your going based off what you “saw.” https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders/major-league?pos=np&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=0&type=3&season=2024&month=0&season1=2024&ind=0&team=2&rost=0&age=0&sortcol=2&sortdir=default&pagenum=1
