On September 12, MLB.com published one of those listicle-type pieces on every team’s “most overlooked player.” Often for such pieces, what national media outlets dig up on the Orioles is disappointing: “10 future members of the 40-homer club” “The 12 best trade deadline acquisitions” “Every MLB team’s ‘likeliest’ Hall of Famer.” Yeah, right. Partly this is because the Orioles are a national afterthought. Partly it’s because these pieces are always to some degree trying to jam a square peg in a round hole. Partly it’s because our team just doesn’t have that many great players right now.
