David Price who???

[markakis8]

What did I learn this winter? I learned that Baltimore catching prospect Matt Wieters is good. Well, wait a second, I already knew that, so how about, "really good"? Nope, the extra modifier doesn't really do it justice.

How about this: after reviewing his performance, talking to the scouts and seeing what our numbers people came up with over the offseason, it's clear to me that 22-year-old Matt Wieters is the best prospect in baseball, the best player on the Orioles right now, and quite possibly the best catcher in the game. And he's yet to play an inning in the big leagues.

I'm not sure if Matt is the best Catcher in the game at this point. I do agree that he is going to be very good and will more likely make a greater impact on the game than Price. Price is good, don't get me wrong, I think he will be an all star at some point. I just remember watching him get hammered by Michigan in a super or regional game and realizing he is human. Thats just my opinion.

I guess no one has ESPN insider.. :lol:

One report I read of him had projections of him like this:

Best Case: HOF
Worst Case: Multi-all star

No lie.

Matt Wieters is the best prospect in baseball and will be the best player in baseball.
