Top Orioles prospect Coby Mayo has had enough of Norfolk and Triple-A ball.<\/p>\n
Baltimore claims it has no place for him in Charm City due to its loaded infield and believes he could use more reps.<\/p>\n
So, Virginia it is for the team\u2019s No. 2 and the sport\u2019s No. 14 prospect, per MLB.com\u2019s rankings.<\/p>\n
And that\u2019s not sitting well with the 23-year-old.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt definitely is difficult. It obviously sucks because you feel like you\u2019ve proven everything you\u2019ve needed to. Sometimes it doesn\u2019t feel like it\u2019s quite enough,\u201d Mayo said of starting the 2025 season in the minors, according to the Baltimore Banner. \u201cObviously, you go back there and if you have success it\u2019s \u2018Oh, he\u2019s supposed to have success because he\u2019s already proven it,\u2019 and if he doesn\u2019t have success it\u2019s \u2018Oh, well, obviously he\u2019s fallen off.\u2019 It\u2019s kind of a lose-lose going to Norfolk.\u201d<\/p>\n
Organizations and prospects can have conflicting ideas when it comes to prospect development and what is best for the player.<\/p>\n
There are certainly times in which gaining extra years of eligibility \u2014 thinking Super 2 players \u2014 is the reason for the decision, while other times it can be due to disagreements on readiness.<\/p>\n
Mayo, a corner infielder, has spent 151 games with Triple-A Norfolk and hit. 279 with a .919 OPS. Those numbers alone show he\u2019s mastered the league and plays a large role in why he\u2019s a top-15 prospect.<\/p>\n
The Orioles, though, already have Ryan Mountcastle at first base and fellow youngster Jordan Westerburg at third place, along with Ramon Urias and Ryan O\u2019Hearn.<\/p>\n
Baltimore could carry Mayo as a reserve, but most teams would rather stash players in the minors and allow them everyday at-bats to aid their development than play them infrequently in the majors.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe still feel like there\u2019s things he can work on,\u201d Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said, per the Baltimore Banner. \u201cWe\u2019re sensitive to the fact going to Triple-A is not what anybody wants to do, but it\u2019s part of the game.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hyde noted that Mayo could improve defensively and can bolster his strike zone discipline.<\/p>\n
Mayo appeared in 17 games for the Orioles last year and hit just .098 (4-for-41) with a .293 OPS. He fanned in 22 at-bats (54.6 percent).<\/p>\n
\u201cMore reps at Triple-A, that\u2019s what we feel he needs right now,\u201d Hyde told the outlet. \u201cI want guys to have confidence, for sure. It\u2019s tough to play at this level if you don\u2019t have big-time confidence. So I want guys to take it the right way. I want guys to prove that they should be in the big leagues by putting up a performance as well as working on things that we feel they need to work on.\u201d<\/p>\n
So, for now, Mayo will grind out more at-bats in the minors and wait for his call, whether it\u2019s with Baltimore or perhaps with another team if he\u2019s used in a trade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
