If Jordan Westburg was on any other team the talk would be “Westburg is THE prospect and so and so has been waiting for this moment” Instead it’s “Westburg is just another good prospect the Orioles have in their system” I don’t think people realize exactly how good he is
@austin_koehn Coby Mayo is very similar. Could be a prize jewel in half of farms but instead just another exciting prospect.
@austin_koehn You could say this about several Orioles prospects
@austin_koehn I thought Mayo was going to take his place by June. Couldn’t have been more wrong.
@austin_koehn People were talking about moving to a part-time utility role after less than 1 year of service time. I thought that was crazy talk.
@austin_koehn Agreed. He does seem to be getting the short shrift. Can you imagine if all of these prospects are as good as Jordan Westburg? It’s dynasty time if they are. Joey Ortiz is tearing it up for Milwaukee. I’m still mad that one got away, but there are only so many infield positions.
@austin_koehn I am guilty of that idea of Mayo replacing Westburg. I simply didn’t appreciate just how good Westburg is. It takes nothing away from Mayo. Who also is a very talented prospect. Westburg has grown on me to the point of becoming my favorite player.
@austin_koehn He is a baller…great fielder, great arm, ferocious at bats, can run…what’s not to like?
