I thought we'd be better up and down the minors this year.  Aberdeen is great, but everyone else under 500.  Delmarva perhaps not as surprising given the youth, but Norfolk and Bowie are surprising on the down side.

Delmarva is the weakest team I've seen in an O's farm system in quite a while.   There are no high-priority prospects to follow and most of the team appears to be overmatched.   But there are several exciting players to follow at the higher levels!       

 

I actually enjoy following Delmarva.   Darell Henaiz is not a high-priority prospect?   I could see him being a top 10 guy by opening day next season.  It's a huge jump from FCL to full season and I'm curiously watching Mishael Deson, Noelberth Romero, Luis Valdez, Creed Williams, Isaac Deleon, and Moises Ramirez to see if anyone emerges.   Remember, Hernaiz was 19 going on 20 last year and did't do much more than hold his own.   Deson is 19 going on 20 this year.   Creed Williams is 18 going on 19.   Romero and Ramierz are 20.    Hernaiz made a big jump, it apears.   Deson is definitely a guy who probably needs to get stronger.   Romero, apparently has already made strides there.   DeLeon shows some signs and also looks like a guy who could get stronger.   At that age, it's hard to know who might emerge.

In addition, we have 3 exciting pitching prospects in Moises Chace, Raul Rangel, and Delosantos.   Chace is 18 going on 19.  Rangel is 19.  Delosantos is a big boy and is 20.

Norfolk (15-21) went 1-5 against Memphis (20-16).   Next up: Charlotte (14-21).

Bowie (13-18) went 1-5 against Reading (16-17).  Next up:  Hartford  (19-14).

Aberdeen (24-7) went 5-2 against Hudson Valley (15-17).  Next up: Rome (19-14).

Delmarva (10-23) went 1-5 against Salem (17-16).   Next up: Fredericksburg (19-13).

Putrid play by three of the four teams.  Bowie has three starting pitchers out right now, which largely explains their struggles.

This feels like the "donut hole" between neglect of 16-year-olds 3-4 years ago, and the skew towards 21-year-olds at 18-year-olds expense the last 3-4 years.    Even with the bone of Hernaiz as "Delmarva A-Rod" to anchor the lineup.

Getting chunks of our first group (loosely counting the ~17-year-olds acquired in trade in with them) to the full-season stateside leagues is one of those where it happening at all is I guess the baby step before it happening well.    Be interesting to see whether Kjerstad can get there at all quickly and how long he'll stay.  We knew those first groups we/Koby were late to the party.

I guess unveiling Willems in a depleted lineup has some parallels to if Adley joined the Orioles while Hays-Mountcastle down.   I have always kind of had the Pass/Fail if a hot HS pick could make Delmarva the next year, but position player wise do accept catcher probably the trickiest one to do that jump.   I could see this year as a qualified success if he doesn't drown.     Where is Samuel Basallo?

      They’ve spent the last 3 seasons blocking their prospects. Why would they stop now?

      I think there's a huge case to be made for trading Mounty and keeping O'Hearn as your primary LH 1B, sharing duties with Mayo. Yeah, you lose some defense, no question. But Mounty has basically given up trying to hit for power, and if you can get a reliever for him in the off-season, you do it. O'Hearn gives you much higher quality ABs than Mounty, and you have to create some room for Mayo.

      Wait Till Next Year

      This is my thought, the people that think there is gonna be this huge overhaul with the roster are going to be disappointed.  The big question marks are what happens with Mountcastle, O'Hearn, and Santander the rest of the roster is pretty set imo.  You then have to decide if Urias or Mateo is more valuable as the back up infielder and who is a right handed hitter off the bench that can also play the outfield.  I think Mayo takes over for Mountcastle or O'Hearn who i trade for a reliever that has some options or a prospect.  Santander gets replaced by Kjerstad.  The one difference I would make in your lineup is I move O'Hearn as well because you can't have Gunnar, Cowser, O'Hearn Kjerstad and Holliday all hitting together.  I would either keep Mounty or upgrade 1st base with some one like Christian Walker 3 years 45 million type deal.

      Really our SP2 is a guy that has averaged 120 IP the last two years? Lat injuries are a serious career threatening injury for a pitcher I believe Grayson's future is in the bullpen, he has shown for two consecutive years that his lat cannot holdup for a full season. It is not going to improve with age and multiple injuries

      The Yankees are in the playoffs every year. When was the last time they won a World Series?  The royals were awful down the stretch.  Some day posters will realize the playoffs are a crap shoot and you just need to get in to have a chance.  Nothing can guarantee winning in the post season.  Last year’s team had a totally different vibe for most and the playoff games were less competitive.

      Yes it would be foolish if we let him walk . He done great job as our # 1 starter . In game # 1 , he made to 8th innings and gave up one run, he done his job.  We need spend whatever it takes UNLESS his demands are  too outrageous

      I think if you're the orioles, you need to sit and figure out what you want to do. I would bring back Burnes, or at least try to. If you can't keep Burnes, which is looking to be a real possibility, do you trade for another TOR starter with the prospect pool we have or try the Free Agent route? QO Santander, but do you trust Kjerstad or stand outside of Santander's house with a boombox to woo him back? The FA market for outfield sucks this year. What are we going to do with the infield? Do you make trades to see what you can do to improve the roster in the next 2 to 3 years, because the infield has a glut of prospects. How patient are you with letting Basallo develop on the MLB roster if a spot finds itself open, if you want to field offers on Mountcastle. Where do Holliday and Mayo fit into next year's team, or do you try to sell high on Urias?
