Imagine an Oriole Infield

[DocJJ]

of Machado at SS and Rendon at 3B. It just may be possible. That infield would be several years away, but it might just be worth the wait. If the Pirates take Taillon, we might pick Machado. The way I see it we're a lock for the #1 pick in next years' draft and Rendon is hands down the top pick.

What type of production are you predicting for Machado at the big league level?

Bedard

Loewen

Riley

Cabrera

and Ainsworth

Good one!

But pitchers break down all the time, so projecting rotations is harder. I think Machado will be a .280-.300 hitter with 15-25 HR potential. I'm not sure he'll stick at SS, though...

Snyder 1B

Roberts 2B

Bell 3B

Reimold LF
