ATH | BAL | BOS | CHC | COL | HOU | KC | LAD | MIL | MIN | NYM | NYY | SD | SF | STL | TB | TEX | WSH | ARI | ATL | CHW | CIN | CLE | DET | LAA | MIA | OAK | PHI | PIT | SEA | TOR
With 2B Jorge Mateo on the concussion list, Orioles 2B Connor Norby is the latest among Baltimore’s bevy of prospects to get his opportunity. It’s interesting to see him up instead of Jackson Holliday considering Norby is striking out 30.7 percent of the time in Triple-A, but he’s also slashing .286/.374/.510 through 238 plate appearances and struck out 21.6 percent of the time across 633 Triple-A plate appearances last year. Even with the increased strikeouts, his wRC+ has jumped from 109 last year to 127 this season. 

Imagine, if you will, a Vegas-style buffet but instead of King Crab Legs and Filet Mignon there’s top prospects as far as the eye can see. As you walk along, you pick up a Coby Mayo here, a Jackson Holliday there, a Gunnar Henderson here, a Adley Rutschman there, a Jordan Westburg here, a Colton Cowser there, a Connor Norby here, a Kyle Stowers there–Wait a minute, you call to the manager, Connor Norby and Kyle Stowers were 2nd round picks! Please, blog, may I have some more?
