Orioles prospect check-in: How are the preseason top 20 doing this year?

With minor league seasons now past the halfway point, it’s as good a time as any to check in on the players from Camden Chat’s composite Top 20 prospects list. Who’s improved their stock? Who’s going in the wrong direction? And what’s next for these guys? Let’s take a look.

#1 - C Samuel Basallo

Minors league stats: .264/.383/.591, 19 HR in 62 games (AAA)

Folks, Samuel Basallo is a stud. At the plate, you could hardly ask for anything better than a .975 OPS from a guy who won’t even turn 21 until next month.
