Off to a nice start to his career. Looks like he has a pretty nice swing.

  • Tony-OH changed the title to Jordan Sanchez 2024

To put Sanchez’s start into context, last summer only three Orioles DSL players hit 3 homers all season: Joshua Liranzo 5 (201 PA), Juan Martinez 4 (146 PA), and Jose Perez 3 (141 PA).  Sanchez has 3 in 61 PA.  Of course, Sanchez is 18.7 years old, about a year older than the average DSL player.

2-4 with another HR and 8th!! 2B today. This guys putting himself on the map. He could be promoted to the FCL if he hits like this another week. But I dont know if there's any transition issue or lengthy process for players in the DSL coming to the states.

I’ve been high on him in the DSL thread. I couldn’t figure out who is swing reminded me of until now…Christian Yelich. It’s been a amazing start and I’d imagine he starts in Delmarva next year.

I think Delmarva is possible to start next year but consider this.   Since the Elias regime came into power, I don’t believe any position prospect ended a season in the DSL and started the next season at Delmarva.  However, because he’s 19 next year and he’s excelling to this degree it seems possible and maybe even probable.

Good point.  That's a big dude though.  Considering we don't draft a lot of HS bats, maybe he gets promoted once the Florida Complex League starts up barring no visa issues.

If you’re talking about this year the Florida Complex League is in full swing and ends about a week after the draft.

That could only happen if they have a VISA open and they probably don't. Besides, the FCL season ends early this year (July 25th). It would be cool if they did because if he hit will he's be on track to hit Delmarva at 19 next year. He still could if they think he's that advanced, but remember, we all have to take these DSL stats with a grain of salt. 

But he's having a heck of a start to his professional career.

2-3 HR 3 RBI so far today. This kid is on a heater.

You’re on top of things.  Lol

Angel Garcia, 17, started the 6-run second, with his 2nd homer in two days.  Emilio Sanchez, our top bonus guy has 2 hits and is 11-23 after a slow start.   The Black team is winning 8-0.  Elvin Garcia, 17, is 2-3 with a 2B and 3B, currently hitting .429 with a 1.269 OPS.  Then you have Stiven Martinez, 16, Adriander Mejia, 17, with a bunch of 18 yo from last years class (Jose Mejia, Luis Guevera, Felix Amparo) all doing great.  And I forgot Saul Gomez, 17, and a few others.

Not to mention, the pitching looks better this year than ever before with some 17-19 year olds.   I was excited about the 22 class (Tavera, Sosa, Arias, and Estrada).  I was pretty happy with the 23 class (Liranzo) but this one, so far, is off the charts.

Pay Koby!

Sanchez's OPS right now is a Bonds-like 1.323, while no one else in todays lineup has an OPS over .923. Orioles Orange is 13-3 on the season.

    • It was 6-9 last year as well IIRC.
    • It’s okay.  It’s a “Phil” thing.  Have you ever noticed any poster with the name “Phil” all have something else in common?   🙂
    • I do think we have players who are not very good in RISP for careers. Names that jump to mind are Mullins, Hays, Mountcastle, Santander, Mateo, McCann, Cowser-not much track record. I only feel confident with Gunnar, Adley, Ohearn, Westburg and Kjerstad-small sample size. When any of the good group are struggling we really struggle.
    • Thanks. BTW, I'm not really picking on Fruit who does have some pitches to work from and considering his awful college stats is a nice development just to get to this point.  I'm certainly not rooting against nor do I no one develops, it just the who "Orioles are masters at drafting and development" really holds no weight when it comes to pitching so far. Are they learning from past mistakes and finding better pitchers? Are they now going invest early draft capital more often, maybe even their first pick since it's late 1t round on pitching? Could they decided to take on more risk/reward High School arms early in teh draft? Perhaps. I know that Elias and Sig are smart guys. I think Holt is a good development guys given the right guys (Bradish, Kremer and even Grayson come to mind), but this organization is in need of pitching on a really good major league team and there's not a lot to bring up because they have not been good and drafting and/or developing their minor league pitching.   I'm hopeful like with anyone else, they've learned from their mistakes and will take a more balanced approached in the draft because as I've also shown, they've haven't exactly hit too often after the 1st round with college hitters since 2020 (Can't really judge Norby). 
    • It does seem like we get "up" for divisional rivals and then fall prone to trap series. Still, let's give some credit to the Cubs. Imanaga and Steele are excellent pitchers. If they were starting for us we would expect to win most of the time.
    • All the pitchers we developed but didn’t draft. They did develop. 1. Grayson Rodriguez 2. D.L. Hall (ok, ok) 3. Kyle Bradish 4. Dean Kremer (was fastball/curveball) 5. Felix Bautista 6.  Cade Povich 7.  Chayce McDermott 8.  Maybes (Portes/Chace/DeLeon/)
    • We focus on Mayo and rightfully so but Norby should also be getting at bats over Mateo, Urias and arguably some others.
