Basallo for Crochet?

I'd have the top 10 as below, with conservative rankings for the O's to avoid homerism.  Personally, I really think Basallo is #2.  

1. James Wood - Washington

2. Holliday - O's

3. Caminero - Rays

4. Lawlar - Dbacks

5. Basallo - O's

6. Jasson Dominguez - Yankees

7. Lee - Twins

8. Mayo - O's

9. Crews - Nats

10. Mayer - Red Sox

Show me an objective source that has reranked the prospects since their initial lists?  The draft is July 16th.  Usually they do a reranking a few weeks after that.  We could have 3 in the top 5.  We have 3 in the top 18 currently.  It's not so far fetched.  

In the minors section, on the prospect hot sheet thread, I linked to ESPN and fangraphs who both re-ranked in late May.

Way too high for Dominguez.  His hot streak was like Cowser’s earlier in the year.  Doesn’t mean as much as people are pretending.

Look at what he's done in AAA in albeit a SSS.  Other than James Wood, there isn't another OF prospect better than Dominguez.  It pains me to say that.  No way am I taking even Dylan Crews over him.

A link here would be helpful.

ESPN (Kiley McDaniel) provides notes and re-rank of his top50.  Note that he removes players who have already lost or projected to lose eligibility in next week or so (meaning no guys like Cowser on O’s or Langford on TEX).  Link to post (note is behind paywall).

  • Holliday #2 and 65 FV tier (along w/Skenes who jumped to #1 overall)
  • Mayo #6 and 60 FV tier
  • Basallo #16 and 55 FV tier
  • Kjerstad #47 and 50 FV tier

Fangraphs (Eric Longenhagen) provides update to his top100.  Unlike Kiley/ESPN, this list does not yet reflect any changes or projected changes to rookie eligibility (ie guys like Langford and Chourio are still in the top100 list).  Link to top100 list and his separate write up post.

  • Holliday #1
  • Basallo #9
  • Mayo #22
  • Kjerstad #26
  • Povich #92

Keep in mind the re-rank occured when before Basallo went absolutely ballistic in June with the weather warming up/not raining daily.  .930 OPS in June.

So to summarize,

Holliday - Both ESPN and Fangraphs have Holliday #1 or #2.  Holliday is #2 behind only Paul Skenes that isn't prospect eligible currently.

Basallo - Fangraphs has Basallo #9, but again that was with Skenes, Langford, and Merrill, ahead of Basallo.  Both are ineligible now.  So that puts Basallo 6th before his .930 OPS month of June.  

Mayo - ESPN had him #6 with Skenes and Merrill listed above him.  So that would put Mayo 4th.

Overall, it's not so crazy to say that we have 3 in the top 5-7 currently.

I'm not sure it works out like that exactly, others in the range they are currently in could leapfrog them. Still impressive.

    • I firmly believe Elias is attempting to build a package around Mountcastle and Kjerstad w/ 2 to 3 lesser valued pieces in exchange for a good starter
    • And here is the coverage map to determine if Fox is airing out game where you live:  https://506sports.com/mlb.php
    • We probably need to consider who we want facing Soto out of the pen. We need a Soto stopper. https://stathead.com/baseball/versus-finder.cgi?player_id1=soto--003jua&utm_medium=sr_xsite&utm_source=br&utm_campaign=2023_01_player_innernav_stathead&__hstc=107817757.2f3f33a24b44870ec4a577029c49e44b.1699920000170.1699920000171.1699920000172.1&__hssc=107817757.1.1699920000173&__hsfp=966217318 Those are his career stats versus all pitchers. He tunes mostly everyone up pretty good. Some lefties stand out though. More as SP though. Just something to think about for what it seems is an inevitable playoff showdown. 
    • So I’ve spent a bunch of time of Suarez’ BBref page and it’s fascinating.  17 seasons of baseball all over the world in an a ton of leagues (APPY, NYPL, MIDW, GULF, FLOR, VEWL, SOUL, TL, NL, PCL, CALL, ARZ, JPEL, JPCL, KBO, IL, AL) The thing I’ve noticed is that he is incredibly consistent.  In all those 17 seasons: 1. His total era in all 17 years is 3.60 (3.81 MLB, 3.71MiLB, 3.45 Foreign) 2. His total H9 is is 9.0 (8.4MLB, 8.9MiLB, 9.1 Foreign) 3. His total HR9 is 0.7 (.9MLB, .8MiLB, .5 Foreign) 4. His total BB9 is 2.7 (3.0MLB, 2.5MiLB, 2.8 Foreign) 5. His total k9 is 7.0 (6.8 MLB, 6.7 MiLB, 7.7 Foreign) He’s done that pitching  quite a few innings (175MLB, 636MiLB, 676 Foreign) For comparison sake this year he is 2.43era, 7.9H9, 0.2HR9, 3.3BB9, & 6.8K9.  His H9 & HR9 are down a good bit resulting in the lower era.  The BB9 is up slightly and the k9 is right at his career average.  I see some regression  in his future as the HR9 returns closer to career avg. but I don’t see him completely falling off a cliff.   Hes not going to over power you but you know what your going to get.  I find it pretty incredible how he’s maintained a very consistent output of performance throughout his 17 years.  Not a lot of peaks and values.  That has a ton of value.  Glad to see him have some success in the later part of his career.  Easy guy to root for.   
    • Cowser has shown his defense is good in center too.  Robert strikes out more than Cowser and I don’t see wasting resources on him.  I can’t image the orioles would want him.
    • Definitely a potential up/down righty on righty option behind Tate. Definite 40 man add this off-season if he keeps it up.
    • Ah yes the good old days of tickets printed on paper product.
