2015 Cardinals: Position-by-position analysis
March 27, 2015 11:30 pm ‧ By Rick Hummel
First base: An old challenge for Adams
一壘手: Adams同樣的考驗
Matt Adams showed last season that he is above average defensively at first
base with an ability to glove the low throw and also move to his right. To
play every day, however, Adams must hit better against lefthanded pitching,
which held him to a .190 regular-season average. But it must also be
remembered that Adams homered off Los Angeles' Clayton Kershaw and San
Francisco's Madison Bumgarner, easily the two best lefthanders in the league,
in one week's time in the postseason.
Matt Adams 在上個球季展現了他高於平均的一壘防守能力,不論是偏低傳球的或身體
右側防守移動皆能順利處理。但對於一個先發選手而言,Matt Adams必須對左投手有
更好的打擊表現,上個賽季他對左投手打擊率只有0.190。但別因此而忽略了他對於左
投手的攻擊成績,包含在季後賽,一周內連續對Bumgarner與Kershaw兩大左投擊出全
壘打。
Often, teams overshifted for Adams last season, giving him almost the entire
left side of the field at which to shoot, and Adams poked a number of
singles that way. None, however, was a bunt, which manager Mike Matheny
advised him to consider this spring in light of Chicago Cubs first baseman
Anthony Rizzo fooling the Cardinals twice with bunt singles late last season.
Taking what the defense gave him, Adams popped just 15 homers in 524 at-bats.
許多球隊在面對Adams打擊時,選擇性的防守布陣讓整個左半邊都空了出來,他也因此
打出了一些安打,但這其中並不包含短打。總教練Matheny在看到小熊一壘手Rizzo去年
趁防守布陣而偷襲了兩支短打安打後,春訓期間也給了Adams同樣的建議。如果對方把
防守布陣都空出來了,何不好好利用,畢竟Adams去年在524個打數中只擊出了15隻
全壘打。(意思就是全力拉打也沒有比較厲害啦)
Adams knows he must try to lay off the pitch in the dirt from lefthanders.
He never has hit under .284 (his 2013 average) for a full season. He will not
be a base-stealing threat but, again, he is a better baserunner than some
might envision. Well-traveled Mark Reynolds, a righthanded hitter who has
seven 20-homer seasons in succession, could play against some lefthanders
if Adams falters, but Reynolds never really has been a part-time player,
and his strikeout levels already were very high when he was playing every
day.
Adams知道他必須對左投手打得更好(這句不太會翻譯),2013年0.284是他生涯打擊率
最低的一年,雖然他上壘後不是個太大威脅,但他的跑壘能力比某些人預想得來的好。
如果Adams不能頂上先發的位子,江湖老鳥Mark Reynolds,一位有七個球季打出20隻
全壘打的右打者,可以在對方派出左投手時分攤一些工作,但這也不是沒有問題,當
Reynolds先發時三振率已經高得嚇人,作為一個替補球員,Reynolds的表現還有待實證。
=================================================
Plan B at first base: Reynolds or Scruggs
一壘手B計畫: Reynolds或Scruggs
In case of injury to Matt Adams, Mark Reynolds could step in and play
regularly, but he wouldn't hit for much average; last year's .196 average
with Milwaukee was not atypical. The former third baseman would not hurt
the club defensively at the position and, with some games of three
strikeouts, a three-run homer also might come.
如果Adams受傷了,Reynolds將接手先發一壘手的工作,但大家都知道Reynolds的
打擊率並不高,他去年在釀酒人0.196的打擊率並不讓人意外。這位前三壘手的來
替補一壘,並不會使得一壘防守減弱,即便單場可能吃下三張老K,說不定等一下
就打出一隻三分全壘打。
The Cardinals also could go to righthanded-hitting Xavier Scruggs, who had
a big year at Memphis last year (.286, 21 homers, 87 RBIs) but had only
three hits and fanned seven times in 15 late-season at-bats. Scruggs is
not as good a defender as Adams or Reynolds. He is a slow developer at 27,
but he has had four consecutive 20-plus homer seasons at Palm Beach,
Springfield (twice) and Memphis and might be worth a look. His strikeout
total shrank from 177 in Class AA in 2013 to a more reasonable 114 last
year in Class AAA. Scruggs' value would be enhanced if he could play
elsewhere, and he did take a few spring training tours in right field.
紅鳥也可能把一壘替補交給小聯盟的Xavier Scruggs,這位右打者去年在3A Memphis
打出了火燙的成績(打擊率0.281、21隻全壘打、87分打點),但在去年底大聯盟的
表現15個打數只有3隻安打,而且被三振7次。Scruggs的防守還比不上Adams或Reynolds,
但他在小聯盟連續四季20隻全壘打的紀錄(含1A一次、2A二次、3A一次)代表他仍值得
留意,他的三振次數在升上3A後也比2A表現更好(從2A 177次到3A 比較合理的114次)。
Scruggs如果能轉換其他防守位置,對球隊的價值或許能夠再提升,而他也在這個春訓
中嘗試了幾次右外野的防守。
