Question: Who’s our breakout prospect next year? Drop your picks below⬇️⬇️

These two came into the org and made it look easy right away. Nate George shot up prospect rankings last year with 19 year old Jaiden Lo Re breaking out in similar fashion this season. He’s hit at every level he’s been at and is slashing .354/.421/.462 for the Keys since being promoted. 

Both have been quick risers in the org and will look to continue the success. 

Catch the Keys playoff game TONIGHT on MASN at 7 PM and finish off your night with some Thursday night football in Australia.

The big question: Can he sustain his momentum?

The MLB team has been disappointing this year but the minor league depth continues to shine. We’re focusing on Vance Honeycutt today and his resurgence since his promotion to AA Chesapeake. Can he sustain his momentum?

These numbers might be hard to understand at first glance, but what you should really know here is that Honeycutt has been able to tap into his power more. He’s striking out at half the rate that he was in Frederick and making more contact on pitches in the zone. The chase rates have stayed similar so it’s really been about making the most of the pitches he does get in the zone.

It’s manifested into the baseline stats in AA as Honeycutt is putting up MLB The Show like numbers so far in a limited sample size.

Vance Honeycutt | @orioles . @baysoxofficial 

@vance_honeycutt is working on driving outside pitches to the other side by hitting the ball from a different angle, helping him to stay inside the baseball. 

The key 🔑 is timing it with his lower half to create hands separation and then bringing his (whipping) hands tight and down to the ball to create a short / direct swing. This approach helps the barrel stay through zone for as long as possible on plane, allowing him to create backspin and drive the ball effectively to the opposite field. @80_scale
