In Focus - Douglas Orellana

Douglas Orellana is one of the most underrated SP prospects in the system

We’ve got 2023 data on him, short arm action, high IVB, cut-ride fastball. It’s a legit power north-south arsenal

Being up to 97 is huge. If he can find command and stay healthy, this is MLB starter stuff

I don’t think I have to remind all of you on how high I have been on my boy Douglas. He has really never pitched bad as a pro.

He will be part of a star studded Binghamton rotation this season that features Jonah Tong, Nolan McLean, and Mike Wenniger.  All four of these are currently projected to someday be major league starters.

Add that to Brandon Sproat and Blade Tidwell in Syracuse and it starts to become obvious that the Mets will someday soon have plenty of pitching chips to offer to other teams for equally team controlled bats.

1.2 IP this spring, 1 hit allowed (solo HR), no walks, 3 Ks. Impressive. I hope Orellana has a breakout 2025.

Right on cue, he had a rough outing on Monday.
