Ian CundallHOST
I mean, we haven't even mentioned, like, from the top 15, um, but not, uh, out, or top 15, not top 100.
Ian CundallHOST
I thought JT Quinn would've been a very, uh, y- good pick for the Orioles as a reliever.
Ian CundallHOST
Uh, Boston Bateman as a starter is someone I like a lot.
Ian CundallHOST
David Sandlin as a reliever from the White Sox.
Zach SpeddenHOST
And then we split in the third spot.
Zach SpeddenHOST
Nick and I both picked JT Quinn, a right-hander who put up very good numbers between Frederick and Chesapeake in his pro debut season.
Zach SpeddenHOST
And then Bob had Nestor German, who put up solid numbers in AAA Norfolk this year and might have seen the big leagues, if not for a late-season injury that cost him the remainder of 2026.
Zach SpeddenHOST
But...
Zach SpeddenHOST
And then after getting added to the 40-man later this offseason, perhaps we see him sometime in 2027.
Bob PhelanHOST
Yeah, so many guys could have gone in this third spot.
Bob PhelanHOST
JT Quinn is definitely one of the top contenders.
Bob PhelanHOST
Also, Boston Bateman for the way he kind of progressed as the year went on.
Connor NewcombHOST
But it was kind of rough.
Connor NewcombHOST
Now, the 2025 draft, which Blood oversaw, was definitely a bounce back, right? You look at in just the first six rounds, the Orioles got Ike Irish, Vihila Aloi, Caden Beaudoin, Slater DeBrune, Joseph Giroua, JT Quinn, Jaden Laurei, and Caiden Hunter all in the first six rounds.
Connor NewcombHOST
I mean, you know, Beaudoin and DeBrune helped you get Shane Baz.
Connor NewcombHOST
And the other, what, six, seven guys that I listed there are all, like, pretty consensus top 30 if not higher ranked prospects in the Orioles system right now.
Zach SpeddenHOST
Now, Frederick is a notoriously tough pitcher.
Zach SpeddenHOST
pitchers park chesapeake is pretty tough on pitchers as well but despite that the bay sox had the second best era in the eastern league at 4.37 and compiled the third most strikeouts at 1398 and the pitching staff is probably where we should start this discussion because a lot of players who went on to have good years spent significant time with the bay sox Whether that was Caden Hunter and Joseph Giroir, both of whom ended the year here, and really for Giroir, this is where he settled in and put together the dominant season that he had.
Zach SpeddenHOST
Luis de Leon overcame a really tough start to the year here to go on and pitch well for the Bay Sox and eventually win.
Zach SpeddenHOST
work his way up to the major leagues.
Zach SpeddenHOST
And then Patrick Riley, who I know we're going to talk about a little bit more, looked really good as he came back from Tommy John surgery.
Zach SpeddenHOST
But Certainly, it wasn't exactly linear.
Zach SpeddenHOST
There were some rough patches in there for this team, but the pitching staff, I think ultimately at the end of the year, looks like a strength, and it was a lot of key prospects putting up good numbers.
Bob PhelanHOST
Yeah, talked about the loaded pitching depth in Frederick.
Zach SpeddenHOST
Joseph Jura was dominant 2026, began there.
Zach SpeddenHOST
And then you had guys that were either there all year or were there for prolonged stretches like Boston Bateman and JT Quinn, among others, who put up really good numbers.
Zach SpeddenHOST
But there was also a lot here to talk about, too, with the bat, whether you want to focus on the players who contributed their first half success, like Fahiva Oloy, Ike Iris, or Victor Figueroa, or the players that came on later in the year, like Ty Head, Zayden Loray and Andy Azekar, among a few others, to contribute to the Keys in the second half and towards their push for the playoffs.
Zach SpeddenHOST
So, Nick, I'll start with you here.
Nick StevensHOST
But yeah, Hopefully next year.
Nick StevensHOST
But yeah, just that was I'm actually really shocked from that stat you pulled there about the second fewest home runs allowed just because I've been looking at.
Nick StevensHOST
So I don't even look at the team stats, just looking at a number of these individual player stats and seeing just the wide gaps like JT Quinn giving up like all his home runs at home and like none on the road.
Nick StevensHOST
Like there's a lot of that this year.
Steve MelewskiHOST
Ianson was good.
Steve MelewskiHOST
JT Quinn moved up and was good.
Steve MelewskiHOST
Uh, as we said, Gerwa, uh, so many others, uh, Caden Hunter.
Steve MelewskiHOST
It was promising what was, we saw in pitching at AA here down the stretch.
Steve MelewskiHOST
But Matt had a huge hand in scouting, developing, and drafting these players with a bigger staff, of course, as he would tell us.
Steve MelewskiHOST
Ike Irish, Vaheva Aloy, Joseph Jerwa, JT Quinn, Jaden Luray, Caden Hunter are just some of the players drafted in 25.
Steve MelewskiHOST
I just watched this kid, Braden Sloan, the other night, best reliever this year in Frederick.
Steve MelewskiHOST
He was the 17th rounder that year.
