It's behind their subscription firewall, but Baseball Prospectus gets around to itsassessment of the Top 11 Prospects in the Orioles organization. You'll never guess who's #1.
I won't copy and paste the article, because plagiarism is bad, but here's the top 11:
Five-Star Prospects
1. Matt Wieters, C
2. Chris Tillman, RHP
3. Brian Matusz, LHP
Four-Star Prospects
4. Jake Arrieta, RHP
5. Brandon Erbe, RHP
Three-Star Prospects
6. Nolan Reimold, RF
7. David Hernandez, RHP
8. Troy Patton, LHP
Two-Star Prospects
9. Jason Berken, RHP
10. Brandon Snyder, 1B
11. L.J. Hoes, 2B
I was interested in the fact that L.J. Hoes! makes the top 11 (and yes, his last name must always be accompanied by an exclamation point), and I gotta admit, even with all the O's stuff I read on CC, I'd never heard of Jason Berken. Guess I need to read more.
I highly recommened a subscription to BP. It's worth the money at less than $40 a season.
