Re: [情報] BA Cubs Top 10 Prospects
1.What have you heard about international 3B prospect
Jeimer Candelario? Did he make your top 30?
Jim Callis: Very promising switch-hitting bat. A long ways away,
but he could be a plus hitter with at least average
power. He will have to work hard to avoid a move to
first base, however. He's in the middle of the 11-30
range.
2.Did SS Marco Hernandez come close?
Jim Callis: He wasn't one of the 15 or so players I considered for
the Top 10, but he is in the next group after them. I'd
just like to see him play higher than Rookie ball before
I go crazy on him. He's a promising hitter with the tools
to stay at shortstop. We'll know a lot more once he plays
in Class A in 2012.
3.With a new emphasis on the farm system, do you think the cubs will still
scout the Pacific Rim still, also have they signed anybody recently from
the Pacific Rim that has promise since the players they have signed have
had mixed results?
Jim Callis: I believe the Cubs will remain active all over the globe.
They're pleased with several international prospects, including
Pacific Rim signees such as righthander Dae-Eun Rhee and
outfielders Jae-Hoon Ha and Pin-Chieh Chen.
4.How does Dae-Eun Rhee profile as a prospect after 2011? I thought he might
be in the Top 10, and was a little surprised he wasn't. Approximately where
did he fall in the Cubs Top 30? Thanks for the chat.
Jim Callis: He was a Top 10 candidate who just missed. His stuff
really bounced back by the end of 2011, looks like he
has put the Tommy John surgery fully behind him and has
a chance to be a No. 3 starter.
5.How many of the top 10 do you anticipate will make the top 100?
Jim Callis: Jackson, Baez, Szczur. That might be it.
6. Jim, will Pin-Chieh Chen figure into the Cubs top 30 and does he have
a big enough bat to man a corner OF spot?
Jim Callis: Right now, he's in my just-missed group. The Cubs have a
middle-of-the-pack farm system, but if we went 50 deep, they'd
have one of the best 31-50 groups in the game. Chen is a slappy
hitter without a lot of physical strength or projection, so he's
going to have to stick in center to make it.
7.How does Jae-Hoon Ha compare with Jackson and Sczcur among CF prospects?
Jim Callis: Right now, he's the best defender of the three but lacks
their offensive upside. Jackson has more power and basestealing
savvy, while Szczur is a better pure hitter and has more speed.
8.Is Hayden Simpson worthy of being in the top 30 after the year he had?
Jim Callis: He's going to make the Top 30 because I think he has to get a
mulligan for 2011, when he pitched with a stress reaction and
a small tear in his elbow, both of which have healed. I'd describe
him as another draftee that the Cubs were higher on than the
majority of clubs. Really don't know what to make of him until
we see a fully healthy Simpson in pro ball.
9.As a follow-up to your response to my question about Simpson earlier, when
did the Cubs find out that he had issues with his elbow? It seems like they
should have shut him down when he struggled in the MWL and didn't show nearly
the same stuff he had in college. Is this expected to just be a minor issue?
Jim Callis: Not until after the year. They say the elbow is fine now
and he should be healthy in 2012.
10.What's the outlook for Dallas Beeler? Was he close to top 10?
im Callis: I like Beeler. He's maybe the best prospect in the system
who has gotten almost no hype, and I considered him for the
Top 10. If everything works out, he could be a No. 3 starter
with a solid sinker/curve/changeup combo.
11.How would you classify Jay Jackson's prospect status after the rough season
he had in the PCL?
Jim Callis: Let me put it this way: He's not on the Top 30.
