BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 46% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: In the pantheon of top prospects, Jordan Westburg got lost in the shuffle. Perhaps it's because of the loaded Orioles farm system, which includes a higher-rated shortstop in Jackson Holliday. Whatever the reason Westburg was overlooked, he's in the Majors now and got off to a nice start to his Big League career.

Westburg has a hit in each of the three games played and is 5-for-12 overall with two runs and two RBI. Obviously, the sample size is still incredibly small, but Westburg was mashing in Triple-A with a .295/.372/.567 slash line with 18 homers, 54 RBI, and 57 runs across 64 games. Westburg has a ton of upside and is joining a loaded Baltimore lineup. He's also played both 2B and 3B thus far, so he should add eligibility at positions beyond shortstop, which was his primary spot in the minors.
