Quite easily, the Braves were the best team in baseball to not reach the postseason in 2009. They had good balance on the mound (3.57 ERA) and at the plate (fifth in the NL in runs). Atlanta was 17 games over .500 for the second half of the season until they rattled off six consecutive losses to frustratingly close 2009. Based strictly on their Pythagorean record, the Braves were a 91-71 team and that was without Tim Hudson for most of the season and a definite transition season offensively. 勇士隊是去年沒進去季後賽中最好的一支球隊，他們的投手(ERA3.75)與打擊(得分在國聯排第五)都有著極佳的表現。 2009 Opsera Finish: 3rd What Happened In The Winter 冬天有啥新鮮事呢? With the exception of the Javier Vazquez for Melky Cabrera trade, Frank Wren made a series of moves where Atlanta aged themselves. Billy Wagner, Troy Glaus, Takashi Saito and Eric Hinske were all signed to affordable one-year deals, avoiding the big two free agent left fielders who each could have bolstered their feeble power categories. 除了用J-Vaz換來牛奶弟外，Wren搞了一些老人來，都是還算能接受的一年約，而沒有傻傻的去追逐FA市場的兩隻大型左外野手，把自己的薪資搞爆。 The Braves weren't expecting Rafael Soriano to accept arbitration and with Wagner already signed, they had to make a payroll trade by sending him to Tampa Bay. His departure, along with Mike Gonzalez, makes their bullpen a whole lot older. 勇士隊並沒有期待Rafael Soriano會接受仲裁，而簽下了Wagner，導致勇士必須把Soriano換去坦帕灣來降低薪資的壓力，而Soriano跟M-Gon的離去，導致牛棚的年紀比去年老上許多。 Atlanta had excess starting pitching following the new deal for Tim Hudson and dealing away Vazquez after a career season was a wise sell high move. They couldn't move Derek Lowe for any type of value in return and the difference between the two in 2010 shouldn't be nearly as big as it was in 2009. Cabrera helps keep right field warm until Jason Heyward is ready for the show, which doesn't seem like it will be long. I also like the upside of Arodys Vizcaino as a live young arm now in the system. 與哈神簽下了新合約，並且在高點賣出J-Vaz是個聰明的舉動。反正我們的六號換不回任何有價值的東西，而且六號跟Vaz在2010年表現的差距應該不會像2009年那樣大。牛奶弟會在黑娃準備好之前先把右外野的位置頂下來，幫他暖暖座位，怎麼看牛奶弟也不會在這個位置待太久。另外得到Arodys Vizcaino這個年輕的肉體還滿令人高興的。 Braves Offensive Preview Beyond Brian McCann behind the plate, the Braves have a lineup of old guys and question marks. McCann still hasn't reached his prime, but he's a lifetime .853 OPS hitter who will eclipse the 100 homer mark this season. The Braves are incredibly fortunate to get his type of offensive production from the catcher position. 如果打線上沒有小麥肯，那麼打線將會是又老問題又多。小麥肯還沒達到他的頂點，但他是一個生涯OPS.853的打者，而且這個球季將會出現他的生涯百轟。勇士隊能在捕手這個位置得到這麼威的火力支援真是爽翻了。 Chipper Jones appeared in more games (143) than he had in any season since 2003 (153), but his OPS dropped from 1.044 in 2008 to .818. His splits show some signs of concern, with a .772 OPS from the left side of the plate and .747 and .645 marks in August and September to close what had been a productive season up until that point. There are only a small handful of seasons on record for a 38-year-old to have an OPS over .900, but Chipper seems more than capable of staying solidly in the .800s for another two seasons. 去年是老大在2003年後出場數最多的一年(143場)但他的ops從2008年的1.044掉到去年的 .818。老大有一些跡象值得我們去注意，他在左打時有.772的ops，但在八九月卻分別打出了.747跟.645的ops來做為結束，低於本季的ops平均。只有少數38歲的打者能交出 ops.900以上的成績，但老大要再打出個兩季ops.800+的成績，應該是沒有問題。 I think Nate McLouth is generally overrated, but he should get more comfortable in Atlanta after spending his first spring with the club. Martin Prado, one the other hand, is one of baseball's more underrated hitters even if he is still a significant work in progress defensively. 我覺得McLouth被高估了，但在經歷過亞特蘭大的第一次春訓後，他應該會對這個地方比較適應一點。另外一方面，M30則是一個被低估的打者。 Matt Diaz is another underrated hitter, who has a career OPS of .921 against lefties. Assuming Heyward becomes the kind of ballplayer he is expected to develop into, a mini-platoon between Diaz, McLouth and Cabrera could eventually be in order. I think Heyward can provide an injection of youth and energy not unlike Evan Longoria during Tampa Bay's 2008 World Series run. Diaz是另一個被低估的打者，生涯對左打有ops.921。假定在黑娃長大之前，應該會跟 DiaZ,McLouth跟奶弟有一小段時間的platoon，來決定最後的名單會是誰。我認為黑娃能為球隊帶來年輕的活力，像龍哥在2008WS系列賽為魔鬼魚帶來的那樣(這裡翻的有點不確定?) Yunel Escobar had an .812 OPS, but I expect that number to either drop or stay about the same in 2010. He was significantly helped out by blistering months of May and July. Escobar is an above average hitting shortstop, but his inability to improve against lefties is disconcerting. 愛絲扣八去年有.812的ops，但我認為2010應該會下修或是維持差不多的成績。他在五六月的火熱表現給球隊很大的幫助。他是一個平均打擊能力以上的游擊手，但他對左投卻有明顯的無力。 Finally, speaking of disconcerting, we get to Glaus and his prospects at first base. The position has felt like a very fast revolving door ever since the end of Fred McGriff's tenure, with names like Andres Galarraga, Julio Franco, Mark Teixeira, Casey Kotchman, Adam LaRoche coming into and out of the Peach State. Atlanta likes Freddie Freeman at the position long term and Glaus can fill in this season, but he missed almost the entire 2009 season with a shoulder injury. I can also foresee a situation where they need first base for Chipper this season and someone like Mark DeRosa, albeit more expensive, would have provided much more value. To his credit, Glaus is still just 33 and hasn't had an OPS season under .800 since his second season in the MLB. 最後，談到令人窘迫得部分，我們得到了格老子來守一壘。這個位置在Fred McGriff離隊後，就不停的換人守守看，像Andres Galarraga, Julio Franco, Mark Teixeira, Casey Kotchman, Adam LaRoche都站過這個位置。勇士隊會希望Freeman能接下這個位置，並待得久一點，但這之前。格老子可以幫忙在這一季站一下這裡，但他因為肩膀的手術錯過了幾乎整個2009。我可以預視這個球季他們會需要CJ來站一壘，以及像迪羅沙這種儘管比較貴但是可以提供更多價值的球員。就格老子來說，他也才33歲，而且在他第二年 MLB生涯開始就沒有ops低於.800過。 Braves Pitching Preview The Braves should have one of the strongest and most balanced rotations in baseball with Hudson and Lowe being supported by Jair Jurrjens, Tommy Hanson and Kenshin Kawakami. Jurrjens and Hanson both have the stuff to be front of the rotation guys. Jurrjens has had some shoulder issues, but he's beginning to look right in Spring Training and even though his ERA probably won't be 2.60 again, it should be well below 3.50. 勇士的先發輪值很威。JJJ跟Hanson都有一二號的實力。雖然JJJ的肩膀好像有點問題，但問題不大，雖然不太可能複製去年的ERA2.60，但低於3.50應該不成問題。 Atlanta's bullpen looks significantly different with the departures of Soriano and Gonzalez and the additions of Wagner and Saito. Wagner had an excellent 22 strikeouts in 13.2 innings with Boston and even though those are unsustainable numbers, he should be every bit as good as he's always been when healthy. Beyond Saito are the reliable Peter Moylan and young lefty specialist Eric O'Flaherty. Even though the bullpen won't be as strikeout heavy as it was with Soriano and Gonzalez in 2009, it should be an area of surprising strength. 在黑柱跟麥槓離隊及Wagner和Saito的加入後，勇士的牛棚跟去年看起來有顯著的不同。 Wagner去年在BOSTON的13.2局中丟出了22K，真是棒呆了。即使這樣的成績沒辦法維持住，他應該能維持他健康時一樣的本事。齊藤，摸以藍跟Eric O'Flaherty都是很棒的牛棚選手。即便在黑柱跟麥槓離隊後，牛棚們不太可能像去年一樣狂丟老K，但應該還是會有令人驚艷的強力表現。 What Are Their 2010 Chances? It is difficult to be overly confident about this creaky of a team, but I like Braves to definitely win more than 86.5 games with a real chance at either dethroning Philadelphia or at least sneaking their way into the playoffs via the Wild Card. 要對勇士隊的搖搖欲墜有過度的信心還滿困難的，但他們應該還是有機會贏超過86.5場的比賽以上，然後贏得外卡或是擊敗費城人進入季後賽。 There are a lot of fragile pieces that need to stay healthy, but the Braves truly are loaded with a great balance of talent in what appears to be Bobby Cox's final season as manager of the Braves. I always found myself passionately rooting against those 90s Braves because I was still bitter about 1993 with the Giants and I always preferred those Yankees teams they lost to in 96 and 99, as well as the Twins, Jays and Indians. But over the past couple of seasons when the Braves had really good teams that are just barely out of contention, I found myself completely pulling for the old skipper and his aging superstar. 隊上很多脆弱的人需要保持健康，在Cox爺爺的最後一年，勇士隊的確有著相當平衡的天賦。我總是能找到理由來反對九零年代的勇士隊，因為我仍然對1993年的巨人隊感到痛苦不堪，而且我一向比較喜歡96跟99年擊敗他們的洋基隊，還有雙城,藍鳥跟印地安人隊。但經過了過去幾個球季後，當勇士擁有一些幾乎沒有競爭力的好隊伍時，我發現我自己被這個老領導完全的吸引住了。(這地方翻得怪怪的，祈求指正) I'm a believer that everything will stay in place for one final run.
