BSL: Four Can’t Miss Prospects In 2021

"Can't Miss" usually means something different

I'm really looking forward to seeing Henderson next year. I think the Orioles handled him about as well as they could given the circumstances in 2020, and he'll more than handle his own with A-ball pitching next year. Where he lands defensively is still a question, but he has the arm for third base.

If a guy named Gunnar had a weak arm he'd have to quit no matter how good he was at everything else.

Going to pick out one sentence in your article. You said its time to start trusting these Baltimore pitching prospects. Im definitely encouraged with the work the Elias regime seems to be doing with player development. In particular the pitching.

I will also say this, I recently spoke with Shelton Perkins' college pitching coach here at JMU he was telling me about the different experiences his kids had in their rookie years (had 4 pitchers drafted in 2019- Orioles/Mets/Dodgers/Indians) and he had high praise for what the Orioles were doing and what they gave the minor leaguers to work on during the offseason, compared to other organizations who refused to even feed their guys. 

 

Vast majority of prospects are going to fail, we all know that, but these college kids WANT to go to Baltimore now and that's great to see.
