Taking a look at what they’ve accessible.
Coby Mayo 3B/1B/DHMayo is a poor fielding 3B with a cannon arm and critical energy. He has no place to play proper now with the Orioles. He may push Westburg or Mountcastle out in some unspecified time in the future, however not but.
Samuel Basallo CWith Rutschmann firmly entrenched behind the plate as the most effective younger catchers within the recreation, Basallo is expendable. He was uncovered when dealing with older pitching at AAA, however he was simply concerning the youngest participant at that degree.
Considered one of them could be a very good headline piece for Stop.
Then you’ve got much more prospects {that a} tier beneath. Simply out of high 100 vary.
Helton Kjerstad LFThey don’t imagine Kjerstad is prepared nor do they suppose he will probably be anytime quickly as a result of they signed O’Niell to a 3/50 deal. Kjerstad has 147 PA, so not rookie elligible, however even earlier than getting these final 17 PA, he had fallen out of the highest 100 prospects in mid-season updates. Nonetheless an important younger prospect for my part.
Chase McDermott RHPMcDermott received a cup of espresso within the majors and struggled. His management points adopted him from AAA to the Orioles. He has walked 5.6 per 9 at AA and AA over the past 2 seasons. Good things. Dangerous command. At 26 he isn’t younger anymore. The Orioles #5 prospect, however not a high 100 prospect or shut.
Brandon Younger RHPAnother 26 12 months outdated, Younger is a 6’6″ pitcher that doesn’t have overwhelming stuff, sitting 92.93 mph. Not what I anticipated after I noticed his dimension. He’s the prototypical again of the rotation sort if he makes it to the majors.
Past these two, there are not any different pitching prospects which are close to MLB prepared or which are within the higher a part of their prospect lists
That leaves main league pitching.
Albert Suarez is 35 in 2025. That may be a no.Kyle Bradish is injured. TJ surgical procedure. And gained’t be again till June on the earliest. That may be a no.
Unsure who else they’ve.
3 crew commerce that sends Mayo or Basallo plus Kjerstad and one other SP to the Padres and Stop and one other prospect to the Orioles?
