Aloy is the best pick of the draft so far going by the delta between where I ranked a player (13) and where he was selected (31). Aloy is a very Orioles type of pick – he hits the ball hard, with some chase and contact issues, although they’re much more manageable than, say, Vance Honeycutt’s were last year. He’s also got a chance to stick at shortstop, and if he goes to third I think he’ll be at least an above-average defender there. I’m still wondering where the Orioles’ money is going – are Irish and Aloy over-slot guys, or were these just opportunistic picks of guys who fell?
