Transaction Oracle — A Timely Look at Transactions as They Happen Monday, December 06, 20102011 ZiPS Projections - Baltimore OriolesSome teams have bad luck, but curiously enough, I think one of the problems that the Baltimore Orioles is a bad case of neutral luck.
Generally, when teams have a lot of young players coming up through the system, you hope to find out as much information about them as you can. Players that take steps forward and exceed average expectations in development are moved up the ladder while players that regress are given less priority in development.
The Orioles, however, had this kind of weird stasis going on in which everybody, like the eventual heat death of the universe, just kinda hung around in limbo. From the big prospects to the lesser guys, normalcy was the rule. Brian Matusz had a nice second half, but we’re still not sure if he’s going to be a star or good. The lack of upside surprises with pitching was generally a rule - the Orioles have a ton of guys that just didn’t provide any new information (they’ve sorted them out by trading a few of these players, David Hernandez and Kam Mickolio, to the Diamondbacks for Mark Reynolds - their Arizona projections are forthcoming).
Sadly, the Orioles are probably the last-place team again in 2011, but that doesn’t mean the organization has fallen off the correct path. The Oh-Ooohs (you have to be a Baltimoron to get this pronounciation right) had a lot of mess from the Angelos-inspired water-treading of the Thrift and Beatagain eras.

Performances have not been allocated to predicted playing time in the majors - many of the players listed above are unlikely to play in the majors at all in 2009. ZiPS is projecting equivalent production - a .240 ZiPS projection may end up being .280 in AAA or .300 in AA, for example. Whether or not a player will play is one of many non-statistical factors one has to take into account when predicting the future. Players are listed with their most recent teams unless Dan has made a mistake. This is very possible as a lot of minor-league signings are generally unreported in the offseason. ZiPS is projecting based on the AL having a 4.46 ERA and the NL having a 4.41 ERA. Players that are expected to be out due to injury are still projected. More information is always better than less information and a computer isn't what should be projecting the injury status of, for example, a pitcher with Tommy John surgery. Positional offense is ranked by RC/27 and divided into quintiles based on what the most frequent starting players at each position did in 2007-2009. Excellent is the top quintile, Very Good the 2nd quintile and so on.2011 Projections Archive Pittsburgh Pirates San Diego Padres Oakland A’s Texas Rangers Florida Marlins Arizona Diamondbacks Cleveland Indians Washington Nationals Toronto Blue Jays Tampa Bay Rays Kansas City Royals Cincinnati Reds Milwaukee Brewers

1. danieljI wonder if development curves have started to shift as more guys specialize in baseball earlier, get specialized coaching/play on travel teams in HS, play 60+ Gs a year at warm weather colleges, get involved in weight training as teens, etc.
Maybe a lot of these guys are done developing in their early twenties, and we shouldn't expect that age 24-27 surge.
Maybe, but he doesn't have to beat that projection by much to be an all star.
Adam Jones 2010 OPS+: 107
Wieters: 96/89
Markakis: 108/119
Yeah, I can see why Orioles fans would be a little disappointed.
Sidenote: How can Brian Roberts only be 33? It feels like he took over 2B from Billy Ripken.
Yeah, that could've definitely been worse.
Thanks!
That's starting 1B Scott Moore to you!
I'm almost starting to wonder if the Cubs' plan for 1B is a Fukudome/Nady platoon or something.
I thought they released him last summer.
He was beyond pathetic the few times I witnessed his complete befuddlement when attempting to hit a pitched ball.
This guy is falling faster that a meteorite
Cabrera, Renteria. I'm sure you could have Jack Wilson if you wanted for little besides paying his salary. Hardy or Bartlett might be available in trade.
2008-2010- the median starter at each position hit:
1B/DH: 122
2B: 100
SS: 88
3B: 100
LF: 107
CF: 104
RF: 111
C: 90
The Orioles' projected starters beat:
C by 10
2B by 5
3B by 8
CF by 2
RF by 5
The median starting OPS+ (all positions) is 105, Oriole starters "project" to hit 103...
but aside from C, the bench looks awful, and those pitching projections are scary
Terry Crowley should just sit on the bench and watch the game like any other ####### fan.
Obligatory NSFW link for the Terry Crowley mention.
