在這個劍拔弩張的季後賽時刻，在剛以奇怪的判決輸給白襪的時刻在這種大家都情緒火熱的時候，請放鬆心情，來看看家裡的小朋友們吧。 ---------------------------- 1. Felix Hernandez, rhp, Tacoma 2. Rickie Weeks, 2b, Nashville 3. Prince Fielder, 1b, Nashville 4.

CASEY KOTCHMAN, 1b, Salt Lake Stingers (Angels) Age: 22 Ht: 6-3 Wt: 215 B-T: L-L Drafted/Signed: Angels '01 (1) Ranking first on this list the previous year and hitting .358 in spring training would have earned most players a starting job in the big leagues. Blocked by Darin Erstad with the Angels, Kotchman instead returned to the PCL intent on addressing concerns about his power. Trying to hit homers only messed up his swing, as he went hitless in his first 19 at-bats and batted .138 with no extra-base hits in the first three weeks. 去年的此時他還在這個排行榜上名列第一位，而且在春訓打出.358的成績，這樣的成績將可使他在大部分的大聯盟球隊贏得先發一壘手的職務。但因為精神領袖的關係，烤雞人被送回了PCL，並且著眼於長打能力的同時，他破壞了他的揮棒，且在前19個打數毫無建樹，並再球季前三個禮拜，只打出了.138而且無任何長打。 Once he shortened his stroke and stopped trying to pull and lift everything, he became the same high-average hitter with gap power he always had been. He may peak at 20-25 homers in the majors, but as a potential .320 hitter and Gold Glover, that still would make him a star at first base. 直到他減少了三振的次數，而且停止嘗試把他看得到的球都強拉到天上後，他又成為了我們所熟悉的，那個擁有高打擊率的中長程打者。她也許在MLB時，每季只能擊出20~25支的HRs，但作為一個擁有.320潛力的打者及金手套，他還是有機會成為一個一壘的明星選手。 AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS AVG OBP SLG 363 62 105 23 1 10 58 43 40 0 2 .289.372.441 10. JEFF MATHIS, c, Salt Lake Stingers (Angels) Age: 22 Ht: 6-0 Wt: 180 B-T: R-R Drafted/Signed: Angels '01 (1) Though Mathis remains one of the top catching prospects in the game, scouts have downgraded their expectations for him. The consensus is that he'll be a solid regular rather than a possible star, and his best attribute is his makeup. That's more of a tribute to his leadership and work ethic, however, than any indictment of his offensive and defensive skills. 雖然Matty還是一位頂級的捕手新秀，但球探們卻已降低了他們對他的評價。其原因為似乎他成為一位穩定，普通的大聯盟主戰捕手的機率，比他成為一位明星球員的機率要大得多。而他最重要的貢獻，是他的氣質部份，也就是他的領導能力及工作態度，這些比他的防守及攻擊能力要多提及的多。 Mathis is much more athletic than most catchers. He's more of a grinder at the plate than a sweet swinger, and he figures to be a .270 hitter with 15 homers per year. He needs to do a better job of covering the outer half and laying off breaking balls out of the zone. Matty比大多數捕手的運動能力要好。他是個grinder多過於一個sweet swinger (這兩個都不會翻譯，orz) 且他預計是個.270，15HR的打者，而且必須要在外角及變化球上多下點功夫 He threw out 33 percent of basestealers in the PCL, but observers thought his arm strength was down to merely average this year. Mathis also tied for the league lead among catchers with nine errors. He moves well behind the plate and excels at handling pitchers. 他在PCL的狙殺率為33%，但球探認為他的臂力在今天降低至平均水平，他同時也以9次失誤並列於PCL失誤最少的捕手之ㄧ。他的擋球及配球的能力都相當不錯。 AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS AVG OBP SLG 427 78 118 26 3 21 73 42 85 4 3 .276 .340 .499 17. JOE SAUNDERS, lhp, Salt Lake Stingers (Angels) Age: 24 Ht: 6-3 Wt: 210 B-T: L-L Drafted/Signed: Angels '02 (1) The Angels decided to take a lefthander with the 12th overall pick in the 2002 draft, and they opted to save a little money by taking Saunders over Scott Kazmir. When Saunders went down almost immediately with tears in his rotator cuff and labrum, it looked like an unfortunate choice. But he avoided surgery and has regained his stuff after missing the entire 2003 season. 天使在2002年的12順位想挑個左投手，但基於省錢的原因，他們選了Saunders而不是 S.Kazmir。當Saunders因為旋轉肌受傷而休息時，這似乎是個不幸的選擇。但他選擇了不動手術，且錯過了整個03球季後，回復了他的stuff Saunders works aggressively with his 91-93 mph fastball and his changeup. He's still refining his curveball, though it only needs to be his third pitch because he'll use his changeup more often against righthanders. He needs to get better at locating his pitches within the strike zone, but he has good control and generally keeps the ball down. Saunders最好的武器是91-93 mph的快速球及變速球。他也正在加強它的區球。雖然這是他的第三球種，因為他將會比較常使用變速球來對付右打者，他也必須加強球在好球帶內的落點，但他擁有好的控球，也能把球壓低。 G GS W L SV ERA IP H R ER HR BB SO AVG 9 9 3 3 0 4.58 55.0 65 38 28 3 21 29 .304 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 192.192.90.202
