My thoughts on the state of the Orioles' farm system, and some of its key prospects.

Zach, you mention 1st and LF for Mountcastle...  thoughts on his ability to play 2nd or 3rd at the big league level?

I'm ruling out 2nd for now, mainly because of his size and footwork. Whether the Orioles put him at 3rd may depend on the organization's needs down the road, and how capable he looks at shortstop in the interim. 

 

Left field would be my preference. The Orioles have struggled to develop corner outfielders in recent years and, if his powers hold up, Mountcastle should have the skill set to move there.
