Who is a prospect you hope isn’t traded…

[Winter]

Guess i go Bradfield Jr. because though i like Mullins, im not paying Mullins when the time comes and Bradfield lines right up with him becoming a UFA. 

[UMDTerrapins]

For reference because it's likely we'll be adding to this list, here's a list of prospects we've traded away since the start of 2022:

Darrell Hernaiz (1/26/23 for Cole Irvin & Kyle Virbitsky)

Cesar Prieto (8/1/23 for Jack Flaherty)

Zack Showalter (8/1/23 for Jack Flaherty)

Drew Rom (8/1/23 for Jack Flaherty)

Easton Lucas (7/19/23 for Shintaro Fujinami)

Luis De La Cruz (1/13/23 for James McCann)

I would have no problems with Elias trading any player other than Holliday, Mayo, Basallo and Kjerstad.  If you mean what lower rated prospect would you not like traded, I would say Bradfield, because the O's don't have another replacement for Mullins.  Fabian looked like a possible replacement at one point, but it's questionable if he can hit MLB pitching.

Thomas Sosa.  I am very interested to see if he continues to fill out and how he does this season.  He went from a small lean kid to almost grown man in one year.  The skills were apparently there before hand but just didn’t have size or fill out.  Now we are seeing a bigger guys with good ball to bat skills and impressive exit velocities.  He could become fast riser imo.

You don't think Ortiz is our sixth best prospect?

@Sports Guy pretty much has a default setting where he disagrees with anything you post.

Ortiz, because stellar defense is undervalued and Josenberger because I used to work with his Mom.

I don't think it's confined to just me.  LOL.

I'll second Stowers, for no other reason that I had a beer with his dad at the bar last April.

[waroriole]

He’s not the best, but I really don’t wanna see Westburg traded. I just think his future will far outweigh his current trade value. I think he’ll make a few All Star teams as a Michael Young type hitter.

Ortiz, McDermott, Basallo

[Three Run Homer]

I don't want them to trade Braylin Tavera.  I think he's going to have a Basallo-type breakout this year.  

I'd be ok with them trading Joey Ortiz.  He's a good prospect and we shouldn't give him away for peanuts, but I feel like the O's have a surplus of talented middle infielders and there isn't room for him.  Better to trade him now than make him repeat AAA.

Hey can you pass that thing over here, please?

It’s a long shot for any prospect to break out the way Basallo did last year but I’m certainly hopeful that Tavera, Soto, or Arias breaks out in a way that puts them into top 100 conversations next year.

Top 100's a good start!

If you had asked me this 6 months ago I would have given a prospect name like Zach Showalter.
