這個球迷Gary寫的很好, 與其po那些mlbTR的意見(everything is opinion, mind you), 還不如參考觀察農場許久的小熊迷來: http://chicagocubsonline.com/archives/2011/12/cubsnews120811_1.php 我還沒吃飯, 所以懶得翻譯了. 請愛用網路翻譯工具. Seriously? Longing for the days of Hendry? Over THIS??? The mgmt team has been here for about a month. Talk about a lack of a honeymoon period - sheesh. From my perspective.... Stewart - a guy that had a horrible season last year but would slot in as our starting 3b currently or at least a utility guy as he's played 2b before as well. As someone pointed out on here as well, he was a highly thought of prospect coming up (http://www.baseballamerica.com... ranking as high as 4th in 2005, but never falling out of the top 50 and coming in at 39 when he got the call in 2008. At 26 he's not a bust just yet. He had two decent years in 2009 and 2010 before the rails came off last year. But as the roster stands right now, he slots as the starting 3b. Weathers - a guy that had tommy john surgery in 2008, missed 2009, but has overpowering stuff (11+ k/9 in his minor's career).... when he can find the plate that is (k/bb ratio 1.58 for his career... and with that many k's that's scary - nuke laloosh territory). Even so, last year he ranked #9 in their organization by BP (http://www.baseballprospectus..... If he can harness things, he can still pan out. He was on the Olympic team before his TJ surgery. It's not too late for this guy. Colvin - just like Stewart, the wheels came off last year and then some. Personally I lost a little respect for him when he whined about being demoted when he was hitting in the low .100's... to me it just sounded like a sense of entitlement. You're crap right now meat - go get your head right and come back strong.... which he didn't. That said though I wish him luck. He's still got time to come around and the change of scenery hopefully will do him good. But let's be honest... he's no longer in the team plans for the OF or 1B. Szczur and Jackson are for sure ahead of him for OF prospects and at 1b LaHair (short term) and Vogelbach (future) are ahead of him. He was surplus. We don't need to hang onto OF prospects but we do need a 3b as Vitters goes through one more year of seasoning. LeMahieu - OK - I don't like losing him. Enough bat control to be a consistent .300 hitter. But honestly a slap hitting guy with no pop. He ranked 17th this past year by BP in an admittedly weak Cubs system. (http://www.baseballprospectus..... But then again all he has to offer is batting avg. Average speed, average (or slightly below) D, zero pop. I think he could have been a good player, but Barney deserves the shot this year and LeMahieu in limited action last year didn't even have the avg working for him. Granted though it wasn't much of a chance - more of a taste. I like LeMahieu - but he's no All-Star in waiting either. Let's not put him on a pedestal. So.... The Cubs got their possible starting third baseman for 2012 as it stands right this moment (to keep the position warm hopefully for Vitters) and the Rockies #9 prospect in 2010 for a OF in desperate need of a change of scenery that isn't in the team plans and a pretty decent slap hitting middle infield prospect. You can like the deal or don't like it - everyone is entitled to their opinion obviously.... but wishing for the days of Hendry and calling the mgmt team morons? This deal looks pretty fair to me. Fills a hole and you can't get something for nothing. -- *~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* Chicago, Change. *~~*~~*~~*~~*~~* -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 112.105.139.180
