Guerrero was a $600k sign in the Marlins international class last year.  Nice little lottery ticket.

Good average and a ton of walks. Little power last year but other numbers are encouraging.

.260 is not great but league average was .234.

'After signing with the Miami Marlins a year ago as an undrafted free agent out of Florida State, left-hander Antonio Velez enjoyed an impressive first professional season in 2021. Reaching Double-A in the process, Velez is becoming one of the fasting-rising southpaws in the Marlins system."

Save a few bucks!

eh, they're saving maybe 300k. Sulser was pre-arb and Scott was 1mil. Major league minimum is 700k, and you have to carry 28 players. 

I don't really think this deal makes the Orioles materially worse in 2022

Getting the comp B pick raises your bonus pool.  Hope that’s a good sign for drafting Jones.

Huh?

You're picking 1-1 you don't need extra bonus pool to sign your first pick.

But yes, mr obvious the pool will increase by a bit over a million.

That BB rate is crazy good.

    • Pulling on that trusty but extremely confusing data/graphic that @Tony-OH was referencing earlier, we see the following swing rates for Adley in the various zones (2022 / 2023 / 2024): Heart: 67% / 66% / 63% Shadow: 47% / 47% / 51% Chase: 19% / 18% / 26% Waste: 3% / 3% / 3% The short answer is that he did swing at a lot more bad pitches this year than he had before. And at less good pitches. One could probably quibble about whether shadow pitches are entirely “bad,” but there’s no doubt that pitches in the chase zone are just bad pitches to try to hit.
    • I love to watch a Staff NCO completely lose it on his crew when they underperform in a crucial scenario. It's a thing of beauty when you see a GySgt, a SFC or a chief petty officer just go off on his group. The language is colorful, the volume is peaked and the intimidation factor is at an alltime high. If you've never seen it before in person you just don't appreciate the impact.  I recall entering a squad bay as a young LT and seeing my HMC holding a young sailor about 4 inches off the ground by his neck.  The remaining members of the squad bay were standing at attention next to their racks. The Chief was "providing focused and explicit instruction," for the young seamen. The sailors all appeared to be paying absolute attention to the instruction while not uttering a single word. I apologized to them both for the interuption as I moved to the next squad bay.  As I left I made a mental note to myself to check the chief's footlocker for bodies.....
    • Yeah, everyone's different.  I can understand why a bad back and a bad hand would make someone an ineffective hitter. But Adley's chase rate went from 81st percentile to 47th percentile on statcast.
    • What? On a competitive team you want to trade a GG centerfielder with 20-20 potential for a 4th outfielder?
    • Good, he should cry. His performance the last 3 months including playoffs isnt something that gets forgotten easily. Atleast not for me
    • I wonder if Adley's issues are something health related but not necessarily an injury per se.  IIRC we all found out in the offseason that Ced was suffering from Crohn's in.......2020?  2021? 🤔  After Ced was pretty dreadful offensively all that season (whichever year it was). I mean something like that could potentially be at play with Adley.  Health issue but not an "injury."  Maybe something that was medically revealed after the HBP? IDK, spitballing here.
    • Not trying to be naive or contradictory, but are we sure that he's swinging at bad pitches?
