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.

    • I’m still so annoyed anytime Bradish and Means’ injuries get mentioned as a reason for needing SPs. We’ve known since before Spring Training those dudes weren’t making it a full season. The amount of advanced imaging and tests done on these players, they knew we couldn’t count on them this year and still didn’t bolster the rotation. I think Wells was a surprise and the ownership change may have interfered a bit but I just don’t want Bradish and Means being an excuse for why our rotation is so suddenly depleted. 
    • I'm also really getting on the "move Holliday to the OF train" lately. So many good-ish infielders have made very successful transitions to the outfield over the years. Craig Biggio, Alfonso Soriano, Alex Gordon, and Chipper Jones all come to mind, not that their stories matter to J-Ho's situation. But I want to get him and Mayo into the lineup ASAP. I'm okay to drop Urias at this point, I think, and Cowser probably needs to find his stroke again in Norfolk.  Unfortunately, I don't think there's much pitching relief in the organization. The injuries to Bradish, Wells, and Means have been pretty devastating. Cole Irvin turning into a pumpkin, while predictable, also hurts pretty badly. It's going to be hard to win this division with Burns, Grayson, and Jeckyl/Hyde as our top 3 starters. Plus, now it seems like we can no longer write off Boston.
    • Yea that’s where I think it’s bs. That said, you never know how teams view the rest of our guys and you do wonder if the Os rep of drafting and developing makes our prospects “worth more”. 
    • I don't buy this. Not ANY starter, they couldn't get Crochet that way or if Skubal became available. 
    • I feel like this is the operative point. The O’s didn’t just put more into picking pitchers last year, they went pretty heavy with it. I feel like they understand what Tony is saying and have already started to adjust. I hope so. We have all been lamenting the fact that the Orioles have not spent high draft capital on pitching. I honestly wish they did so instead of drafting Bradfield last year. I also hope their top two pics this year are pitchers. From a roster management perspective, I think it will be easier to find solid players to round out our positional group then it will be to find good pitchers for our staff. I think we need to draft those.
    • Not trying to pick on you, but what does the major league team's ERAs have to do with pitching development? How many Orioles pitchers were drafted and developed by the Orioles on their current staff? Zero. No one is holding anything against Fruit, just pointing out facts. Just like the fact that despite all his development, he's having a hard time getting High-A right-handed hitters out consistently. Now, maybe he'll continue to develop and maybe he'll end up guy, as Orioles fans, we sure hope so, but I think if you are going to tout a guy to show off your development system, maybe not pointing out a 24-year old in High-A ball who's stats or stuff really don't scream out, "Wow!" I've watched Fruit pitch a few times and came away not very impressed. Now guys do improve and I'd never call anyone who can touch high-90s a non prospect when they're 24-years old, but I think there's still a long road ahead.  Again, I'm not rooting against the guy at all. 
    • I understand the Lenny Webster pun (not bad), but who exactly would be an upgrade over Mcann( who is a backup catcher)  other than grinding Rush into the ground. Mcann is no more this teams problem , than Caleb Joseph a problem for the teams he was backup to Matt Wieters. Historically if your looking for Offense youre not going to find it from a backup catcher. If they play him less which they will eventually do, then they have to grind on Adley. Aint shit for free.
