Tuesday Bird Droppings: Where the Orioles are stacked with prospects

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

Here are some words I’ll never get tired of saying: the Baltimore Orioles have some of the best prospects in baseball.

But don’t take my word for it. Just ask one of the most preeminent prospect publications, Baseball America, which yesterday unveiled its Top 100 MLB Prospects list for 2021. Their list included five — count ‘em, five — O’s prospects, headlined by catcher Adley Rutschman at No. 2, behind only the Rays’ Wander Franco. Per MASN’s Steve Melewski, Rutschman is BA’s highest-ranked Orioles prospect since Dylan Bundy also placed second in 2013.
