我又要來洗版了，這次是Top 50的翻譯文眼看春訓即將來到，不放上來到時候有其他更重要的大聯盟消息這些就只能石沉大海囉... 先來一篇LYNN HENNING的排名這位在美國鄉民人稱老虎糗爺，或許對他的排名不用太認真XD 另外他是不將還沒來美國的拉丁小朋友放進來的所以跟Mark Anerson會有更多差異原文網址：http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20111219/SPORTS0104/112190386/ The-Detroit-News-ranks-Tigers-top-50-prospects-2012?odyssey=tab%7ctopnews% 7ctext%7cFRONTPAGE DECEMBER 19, 2011 AT 1:00 AM The Detroit News ranks the Tigers' top 50 prospects for 2012 BY LYNN HENNING THE DETROIT NEWS Detroit- No question, young talent is a bit thinner than when the Tigers took inventory a year ago. 毫無疑問，與一年前相比，大貓農場變貧脊了 Their farm system, much maligned for years and for sound reasons, has lately been raided by teams that like what the Tigers have been raising on all that minor-league acreage. But this year saw some losses: 這座農場在幾年前曾經一片荒蕪，DD總管上任後勵精圖治，已有明顯改善，但是今年我們損失不少糧作 A pair of blue-chippers, Francisco Martinez and Chance Ruffin, went to the Mariners as part of a Tigers trade for Doug Fister. 用兩個績優股作用Francisco Martinez and Chance Ruffin當祭品換來神之拳兒 Antonio Cruz, Julio Rodriguez, Cole Nelson, and Lester Oliveros were swapped for the likes of Delmon Young and Wilson Betemit. 用左手牛Antonio Cruz+防守型捕手Julio Rodriguez租Wilson Betemit半季用左手牛Cole Nelson+未來終結者Lester Oliveros換來季後賽全壘打王大猛 And yet the Tigers' minor-league outposts remain, particularly at the lower levels, healthier than at any time since the 1970s. 至少，農場的目前強壯的很，自1970以來從沒這麼健康過 (really..??!!) Particularly on the pitching side, there are enough skilled prospect to expect that additional trades involving Tigers farmhands will be part of the next year's business cycle, which continues as the Tigers attempt to make upgrades ahead of their 2012 spring camp. 特別是投手群，只要他們持續保持健康、進步、投出身價，2012球季我們又有更多的交易籌碼來季中升級！ A deeper analysis of the Tigers' farm chain reveals 50 prospects who at least figure to have a shot at the big leagues. As happens in any year, some prospects who look as if they're safely on course for Comerica Park can hit a speed bump that might or might not spell trouble. Others who were taken lightly often find their way - and in a hurry. It's the way a science as inexact as projecting big-league evolves annually. LYNN HENNING：我的排名都有經過一番深入、科學化的分析，並在衡量一切因素下….. x0x0x0x0x0x0x，總之，這份名單的產出很嚴謹 But after careful discussions that have spanned the past year, this is how The Detroit News Top 50 Tigers Prospects for 2012 shapes up. 特製2012年50大新秀，請享用 Players who have had several stops in Detroit (Danny Worth) or who were on the team for significant time in 2011 (Duane Below) are not included in the prospects list. 名單中不會包含近年大小聯盟多次來回的 (例如：Danny Worth)，11球季在大聯盟蹲太久的也自動畢業 (例如：Duane Below) Others who were here only briefly (Jacob Turner, Andy Oliver, Adam Wilk, etc.) are still considered part of the minor-league galaxy. Also, teenage players in the Venezuelan developmental league, for example, do not qualify until they have reached the United States. 至於只上來純觀光的則仍保有資料，照作者習慣，還在拉丁聯盟的球員不列入討論，等哪天他們真的踏上自由國度再說 With those debatable points ready to be chewed upon, The Detroit News Top 50 Prospects for 2012 are presented. 1. Jacob Turner, RHP, 20 http://zzb.bz/jdKRt What counts most in baseball is pitching. And no pitcher in the Tigers system has more upside or a better package than Turner, a first-round pick in 2009. 大家應該都很熟了，現有實力跟未來淺力都是最棒的！ 2. Nick Castellanos, 3B, 19 http://zzb.bz/obAel He was everything the Tigers envisioned ahead of his first full year in the minors. Terrific hitter, with power to all fields. Solid defender. Best position prospect by a mile. Nick這一年讓老虎當初選他的所有願望一次滿足，有棒子有power有不錯的防守，position prospect第二名都看不到他的車尾燈 (LYNN HENNING跟Mark Anderson最大的相異處，他目前對Danry Vasquez評價還是非常保守) 3. Drew Smyly, LHP, 22 http://zzb.bz/D8Otf Second-round pick (2010) had a big first year in the system. Good pitches and command. Could become a major contender for Tigers rotation as early as 2012's spring camp." 11球季宰制小聯盟打者，他真的知道怎麼"投球"和"控球"，最快的話，春訓結束就能搶到5號先發投手的位置迷之聲：如果這位置有空的話 4. Casey Crosby, LHP, 23 http://zzb.bz/0d3Mz Had troubles with control in 2011, but don't be fooled. Crosby's Tommy John surgery is history and his repertoire is top-of-the-rotation good. Should bust out in 2012. 控球問題還是困擾著他，但別過分擔心，TJ手術已經是歷史了 (真的嗎…??)，他就是前段先發輪值的料，新球季等著看他大爆發！迷之聲：Crosby的傷病史太恐怖，哪可能會過去就過去 5. Rob Brantly, C, 22 http://zzb.bz/Z9KH4 Solid in all areas, which is how you get selected in the draft's third round (2010). Should be Alex Avila's back-up in 2013. Also looms as a good trade chip. 攻守兼具的捕手，也許再下個球季就能在本壘板支援Avila，或是…成為好的交易籌碼。 6. Andy Oliver, LHP, 24 http://zzb.bz/BXtlF Talent is there. Is the consistency? Major issues with the strike zone in 2011, but has the skill to become a top-shelf pitcher. Pivotal season ahead. 還有多少天分能轉成實力？11球季控球大爆走讓他失去了光芒，天分還在那。 7. Avisail Garcia, OF, 20 http://zzb.bz/kgyod Not surprising that he had a setback in 2011, although Garcia finished strong. Only thing in greater supply with Garcia than talent is his youth. Bounce-back year anticipated. LYNN HENNING對他11球季在A+的普普成績不感意外，小米糕不只有天分，這麼多年過去他還是幼齒的很，預期這季會回到正途。 8. Hernan Perez, IF, 20 http://zzb.bz/DrsE9 Needs some seasoning, but could find himself in the picture as early as 2013. Has size (6-foot, 160) and is steadily growing stronger. Leap to Double A in 2012 is possible. 還需要幾個球季來養，也許再下個球季我們的二壘接班人就有人選的，有身材而且持續變壯，精彩的一季也許能讓他爬到2A 迷之聲：我還是覺得現在把他放40-man roster太早了 9. James McCann, C, 21 http://zzb.bz/UCqAl A few years ago, the Tigers had zero catching. Now they've got a full shelf, including last year's first-round pick. McCann is 6-2, 210 pounds, with blue-chip defensive skills and a decent bat. 遙想不過幾年前，農場捕手深度幾乎等於0，現在我們卻擁有滿桌的好料，這位11梯選秀狀元，有頂級的防守+及格的棒子 10. Brenny Paulino, RHP, 18 http://zzb.bz/6CnCr One of the hotter up-and-comers in the system, Paulino is a 6-4, 170-pound gunslinger from the Dominican Republic. Has diesel-engine stuff. Should be a major farm-system story in 2012. 這一年最新竄起的快紅新生代，這位來自多明尼加的小夥子，有成為大投手的一條件，下個球季農場追夢成功的最佳代言人。 11. Tyler Collins, OF, 21 http://zzb.bz/orAgd Tigers got him in the sixth round last June (Howard J.C. by way of Baylor) and might have gotten the steal of their draft. Left-handed hitter who has power and surprising speed (5-11, 205, left-handed batter). 老話，LYNN HENNING也認為他是選秀會一偷，有power的左打，還有意想不到的速度！ 12. Danry Vasquez, OF, 17 http://zzb.bz/uOs4g No one will know for a few years yet, but as much as a 17-year-old can be projected, the 6-3, 169-pound Vasquez (bats left-handed) has a shot at becoming a star. Skills are broadly packaged. 沒有人能斷定Million Boy到底能長到多高，但他真的具備成為明星的一切 13. Adam Wilk, LHP, 23 http://zzb.bz/b7rZB Probably could pitch right now for any number of big-league teams. Not a hard-thrower, but his "pitchability" quotient is high. Wilk現在就能在大聯盟任何一隊投球，他球不快，但是他真的懂投球 14. Bruce Rondon, RHP, 20 http://zzb.bz/kBzqY Has heavy work ahead on his control, but owns one of the best arms in the system. A strikeout pitcher who has time to put a collar on the strike zone. 控球還需要大改造，但他有整個系統最棒的"手臂"，等學會投進好球帶，他就無敵了 15. Tyler Gibson, OF, 18 http://zzb.bz/x4miq Tigers paid him handsomely last summer to turn down his Georgia Tech scholarship. He's a 6-2, 190-pound left-hand batter with a and significant potential. 給這麼多錢把他從Georgia Tech前挖來，就是看上這位左打的強大淺力。迷之聲：baseball background應該是指他有個打棒球的老爸 16. Aaron Westlake, 1B, 22 http://zzb.bz/Yj9Yo He was the Tigers' third-round pick out of Vanderbilt and for good reason: 6-4, 235 pounds, with big left-handed power. Tigers are preparing for the day a guy named Cabrera plays elsewhere. 這位11年3輪在Vanderbilt渡過一個美好球季，一壘左手砲，我們在準備如果哪天~~米糕不在的話…. 迷之聲：屁~~米糕無可取代~~ 17. Alex Burgos, LHP, 21 http://zzb.bz/N7CiJ Fifth-round pick in 2010 (State College of Florida) and had a nice first full season at West Michigan: 2.19 ERA and .189 opposing batting average in 16 starts. 第一個職業完整球季成績非常亮眼 2.19ERA，被打擊率只有.189 迷之聲：但他是個軟左投，要多保留點 18. Dixon Machado, SS, 19 http://zzb.bz/vOG1S Simply needs more time - and bulk. He's 6-foot, 140 pounds, with a crisp glove and arm. Right-handed bat needs to mature, and should. 只需要時間給他長大長壯長經驗，有手套也有雷射肩，成長指日可待 19. Matt Hoffman, LHP, 23 http://zzb.bz/MVwqT Shaping into a solid reliever, Hoffman doesn't have closer stuff, but could find himself in the big leagues as early as next season. 先發轉中繼結果非常成功，也許Hoffman新球季就能看到他穿老虎球衣上場雖然他的stuff沒有好到能當closer，還是有96MPH的快速球 20. Brandon Loy, SS, 21 http://zzb.bz/rNQ8n One of those guys who almost certainly will play in the big leagues. Has the hands, glove, with just enough bat to cut it. Tigers got him in the fifth round in June from the University of Texas. 光靠游擊區守備，我們就可以確定這位11梯選秀總有一天會來到大聯盟，是的，只要他打擊到及格邊緣就夠了。 21. Steven Moya, OF, 20 http://zzb.bz/vDwcH Numbers are misleading. Privately, Tigers believe he has as much potential as any hitter in the system. Moya is 6-6, 220, and must yet learn to hit the curveball, but projections are sky-high. 不要相信成績上所顯示的(AVG.204 / SO 127 BB 12 in 86 Gs)，Moya的天花板不輸任何一個人，除了打爆快速球，他還需要學會打更多的變化球 (例如：曲球) only the sky is the limit 22. Daniel Fields, OF, 20 http://zzb.bz/C6VVk Had a bruising season in 2011, no question. But with a trim to his swing, Fields could be back on track in 2012. Excellent athlete who should bounce back. 2011球季Daniel Fields打得很冏…季外好好調整，這一個新年他會再度抓回大衣的目光。 23. Bryan Holaday, C, 24 http://zzb.bz/MaN6Q Didn't hit the way he or the Tigers had hoped in 2011, but Holaday is a catcher, and that means a prospect with his overall package will probably play in the majors. 第一個球季沒有如大火預期的發光發熱，但他能防有有領導力，還有機會打開大聯盟大門 24. Argenis Diaz, IF, 24 http://zzb.bz/7Mj90 Not technically a prospect, Diaz has played a smidgen of big-league ball with the Pirates. But he has a tremendous glove and can handle himself at home plate. 去年自由市場簽來的前海盜內野工具人，也許不該再以新秀眼光視之 (那你還放他幹嘛…)，但他的防守很不錯，而且這季打擊也有進步。迷之聲：12球季有機會被call上來應急 25. Austin Wood, LHP, 25 http://zzb.bz/3EPZw Came back from 2010 shoulder problems and should more closely resemble the fifth-round pick he was in 2009 following a sweet career at the University of Texas. 順利從10年的傷痛中走出來，在2A有個不錯的球季，別忘了他當年在Texas的四年美好歲月 (記得有一場完投15局投超過180球的樣子，然後被我選到手就爆了…) 迷之聲：說的跟他的投球完全無關XD 26. James Robbins, 1B, 21 http://zzb.bz/gxrsu Could turn into one of those Matt Stairs-types, all because of his left-handed power. Not flashy, but solid, with power that should take him to the big leagues. 一壘左手砲，power就足夠把他帶到大聯盟了，LYNN HENNING把他比喻成也短暫待過老虎的卡車司機Matt Stairs。 27. Michael Torrealba, RHP, 22 http://zzb.bz/jpmzQ Had a here-I-am season in 2011 at Double A Erie. Torrealba (5-11, 150) struck out 89 batters in 81 innings and held batters to a .230 average. 81局89K被打擊率.230，用一個成功的球季讓大家記住他的名迷之聲：但是….Torrealba整季都在1Aㄟ….文章出包了XD 28. Kevin Eichhorn, RHP, 21 http://zzb.bz/4rYeo Tigers got him in the Diamondbacks trade for Armando Galarraga and are happy with this swap. He was 11-5 last season with a 3.61 ERA at Single A West Michigan. Good control, with decent stuff. 用Gala能換到這樣的貨色，我們應該滿足，整季在1A擔任先發，11-5/ERA3.61，控球好，整體不差 29. Luis Marte, RHP, 25 http://zzb.bz/WLZO0 Had a cup of java with the club at the end of 2011 and could find his way back to Detroit in 2012. Good arm, but the usual command issues loom. 去年在大聯盟驚鴻一瞥，新年新希望：這次要待久一點！！真的能投，只是有時控球會走鐘 30. Jamie Johnson, OF, 24 http://zzb.bz/xwSbJ Solid, all-around outfielder who can play center or a corner. Gets on base, has little power, but is on schedule. Tigers got him in the seventh round in 2010 (University of Oklahoma). 外野三個位置都能守／有選球眼能拿保送／but…砲管小了點，大聯盟不遠了 31. Jose Ortega, RHP, 23 http://zzb.bz/3mvJQ Ortega had high hopes that turned into had a bad time in 2011. Needs to re-groove his entire package if he hopes to stay on the radar in 2012. 在3A大爆炸，新球季需要激起點心火花把回大家的心 32. Michael Morrison, RHP, 23 http://zzb.bz/qNtVM Late-round choice (29th) who had a nice year at Single A Lakeland (2.72 ERA, 1.079 WHIP). Not dynamic, but a guy who could find his way into a big-league bullpen. 末輪選秀驚喜，有機會上來當免洗牛 33. Tyler Stohr, LHP, 25 http://zzb.bz/BIH7U Getting late in the game for Stohr, but he has pitched well enough at advanced levels to dent an active roster somewhere in the big leagues in 2012. 從TJ回來，在高階證明自己搶到40-man roster，新球季隨時可能上來觀光 34. Brayan Villarreal, RHP, 24 http://zzb.bz/yUrCE Was good enough to pitch in 16 games for the Tigers last season and could easily re-emerge as a back-end bullpen reinforcement in 2012. Needs a refined second pitch. 去年開級名單的最大驚奇，新球季可能再來一次快速球以外的球種都還需要加強迷之聲：有部分不同意，Villarreal的滑球去年還在農場排名前三，開季在大聯盟爆炸明顯的問題是控球太差，還有他的變速球完全無用 35. Jade Todd, LHP, 21 http://zzb.bz/kBzl4 Seems he will be in the bullpen to stay after beginning life as a starter. Solid overall package. One to watch in 2012 at Single A Lakeland. 看來是先發無望了，乖乖當你的左手牛吧 36. Kenny Faulk, LHP, 24 http://zzb.bz/PMfmk Easy to picture Faulk becoming one of next season's faster-risers among Tigers pitching prospects. He's done nothing but pitch well since he arrived (16th round, 2009). 加入後年年表現精彩，該讓大家注意到她的表現了 37. Tony Plagman, 1B, 24 http://zzb.bz/Gf4aj Slammed 18 home runs in the big Florida State League ballparks in 2011, which is why Plagman (ninth round, 2010, Georgia Tech) has a chance to play somewhere in the majors. 第一個球季就在投手聯盟A+轟18支全壘打，有機會在大聯盟佔有一席之地迷之聲：不過一壘就別想了 38. John Murrian, C, 23 http://zzb.bz/tLwJC Has a little Gerald Laird in him. Murrian should be in position for a back-up job, at least, if he stays on course during his third full season. 他讓人想到Laird (是好事嗎XD)，新球季有可能某個層級擔任第二號捕手 39. Brennan Smith, RHP, 22 http://zzb.bz/e3YD1 Another late-rounder (33rd, Bowling Green) who could pitch his way onto a roster. Had a combined 2.56 ERA at West Michigan and Connecticut in 2011. 又一個末輪選秀在河裡逆流而上的感人故事，去年在A-擔任先發表現不錯 40. Brandon Douglas, 2B, 26 http://zzb.bz/g0VZq Still has a shot, but needs to make a move in 2012. Douglas hit .281 at Double A Erie in 2011, but with light power, offense remains a question. Douglas：我甚麼時候有機會上大聯盟？路人：就在今年！就在今年！但機會不多了，打擊率還行，可惜零砲管+零選球 41. Gabriel Purroy, C, 19 http://zzb.bz/dsTRo Check out Purroy's numbers at the end of 2012. He could be one of the system's fast-track prospects. Not big (5-9, 160) but has interesting potential. LYNN HENNING認為新球季可能的快紅新星 (像去年的Julio Rodriguez)，小個子捕手，但人小志氣高 42. Dean Green, 1B, 22 http://zzb.bz/DyYea Big man (6-4, 255) and left-handed hitter who will be entertaining to follow in 2012. Tigers got him in the 11th round last year after a college career at Oklahoma State and Barry University. Can mash a baseball. 11梯新選來的大隻佬，有能力砲轟投手，新球季表現如何，大家都在看迷之聲：Mark Anderson評論D.Green跟T.Collins都是在大學經歷轉學和出賽問題影響身價跟名氣，才讓我們有機會在中段選到的隱玉 43. Kyle Ryan, LHP, 20 http://zzb.bz/7ZBGn Good horse to bet on in 2012. Ryan (12th round, 2012) has good stuff and surprising command for a pitcher so young. 新球季的淺力股之一，有超越同年紀的控球與Stuff 迷之聲：11球季在1A擔任開幕先發投手就已經嚇死一堆人了，聽說他家就住在球團訓練基地旁邊，休季還是每天跑去練球，所以進步神速，其他人不跟這樣的好學生看齊嗎？ 44. Jason King, 3B, 22 http://zzb.bz/OpJAE Another 2011 draft pick (fourth round, Kansas State) who could climb a rung or two next season. Switch-hitter with pop. 11梯新鮮貨，有可能在一兩年迅速竄起，三壘手／左右開弓／有砲管 45. Corey Jones, 2B, 24 http://zzb.bz/XdEGE Has a potentially plus bat. Defense isn't his strong suit. Just a matter of how Jones develops as a hitter following a lukewarm year at Single A Lakeland. 第一個完整球季在A+過的很安靜，為打擊而生的男人，防守或許不夠力，但一切亮點都是看他的手中的巨棒 46. Ramon Lebron, RHP, 22 http://zzb.bz/6EjfM Arm is there, but control and command are beneath sea level. If he throws strikes, Lebron will have a big-league job somewhere. 控球水準遠遠追不上他的100MPH火球，"如果"哪天能投好球了，大聯盟少不了他的位置 47. Brett Harrison, SS, 19 http://zzb.bz/Dbayc Was headed to the University of Hawaii before the Tigers steered him to a contract with an over-slot offer in 2011 (18th round, Henderson, Nev.) Probably a smart investment for both sides. 簽約前一刻才被我們從University of Hawaii抓回來，LYNN HENNING認為對雙方都是最好的結果迷之聲：Mark Anderson評估Harrison的身價跟實力大概是5輪左右 48. Ryan Strieby, 1B, 26 http://zzb.bz/iKKv1 Was finally free of wrist problems in 2011 - and then didn't hit up to Strieby-like expectations. Lost his roster spot and could have a tough comeback task. 終於跟困擾近三年的手腕傷痛說掰掰，結果打的普普通通…位置跟機會已經快沒了… 迷之聲：受傷前在A+跟2A有夠殺，真的可惜了 49. Eugenio Suarez, SS, 20 http://zzb.bz/wwRyg Venezuelan prospect and switch-hitter who has enough skill to move through a big-league club's farm system. 游擊手，左右開攻，有足夠的技術讓自己一步一步往上爬 50. Luis Sanz, RHP, 24 http://zzb.bz/IgvkE Needs to pitch at higher levels, and soon. But Sanz is a 6-1, 173-pound prospect who could find his way in a hurry. 時間不多，卻還在低階打滾，要趕緊加速了，他有這樣的能力嗎？ LYNN HENNING說：他反正是信了 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.137.198.5
