Tigers Prospect Profile #40: Jay Voss
In 2010, Jay Voss got the all-important promotion to Double-A, but struggled
out of the bullpen for the SeaWolves, so in 2011 he returned to Lakeland,
where he again shined and pushed a promotion, only this time he stayed in the
rotation, and this time around, he shined. What does the left-hander bring to
the mound, and can he maintain his success?
2010剛來老虎時,Jay Voss在2A牛棚提著汽油桶燒自家人一整年,去年轉成先發投手在A+
重新出發,這次他找回自信,靠著好表現再次回到2A,這樣的成功有辦法繼續嗎?

Background
The Marlins plucked Voss from Kaskaskia Junior College in the eighth round of
the 2007 draft, inking him for a reported $80,000. His contract was done
quickly and he appeared in 15 games in the New York-Penn League going 0-7 with
a 7.63 ERA.
馬大魚2007第8輪簽約金8萬,該年在短期1A出賽15場,成績很悲慘:0勝7敗ERA 7.63
Sent to the Low-A South Atlantic League for the 2008 season the then 21-year
old Voss posted a 6.39 ERA in 69 innings giving up a whopping 106 hits along
the way.
隔年成績一樣爛! ERA 6.39,69局竟然有106支安打 (發球機嗎…)
In 2009 Voss's career began to take off as he notched a 2.02 ERA in ten games
with Jupiter in the Florida State League and then rattled off a 2.97 ERA in
30 outings at Double-A. He struck out nearly a batter an inning across the two
levels that year while allowing less than a hit per inning.
2009年有點樣子了,在A+ ERA 2.02 (出賽10場)接著在2A ERA 2.97 (出賽30場),被安打
數終於低於比投球局數,K9值接近9
The Marlins traded Voss to the Tigers in exchange for big league left-hander
Nate Robertson at the end of spring training 2010 and he was quickly assigned
to High-A Lakeland to start his Tigers career.
Voss quickly proved he was too much for another tour through the FSL and was
sent to Double-A to work out of the bullpen He posted a 5.81 ERA in 33 outings,
reverting back to his hittable ways from early in his career.
2010春訓時,我們將病入膏黃的Nate Robertson換到馬大魚拿個Jay Voss當安慰獎
瞭表心意
原本先丟到Lakeland很快就證明他不屬於這裡,但來到Erie又發現這裡的世界太複雜…
成績是似曾相似的 ERA 5.81…而且安打隨便送不用錢
Voss got back on track in 2011 with a strong start to the season back in
High-A. He posted a 3-0 record in eight games (six starts) with a 3.21 ERA
and a four-to-one strikeout to walk ratio.
He capitalized on another opportunity in Erie with a strong performance across
19 starts with the SeaWolves. He finished the year with a 9-7 mark and 3.67 ERA,
allowing only 96 hits in 115 1/3 innings while striking out 101 hitters.
2011,Voss不得已再度回到A+,這次是以先發投手的身分,3勝0敗ERA 3.21,
三振保送比4:1 (水喔!!)
再次挑戰2A,現在他~準備好了,19場先發,9勝7敗ERA 3.67,115.1局96安101K
Scouting Report
Voss is a classic three pitch lefty. He features a fastball, slider and
change-up in his arsenal with the confidence to throw all three pitches.
會速球、滑球、變速球,沒有哪一種球是特別不敢投的
In 2011 Voss's fastball velocity settled in at 88-90 mph with an occasional
bump to 91 mph. Prior to joining the Tigers Voss had flashed 92-93 mph velocity
with the Marlins before regressing in 2010 and settling in with a
fringe-average heater in 2011.
去年Voss球速維持在88-90MPH,偶爾爬上91MPH,交易到老虎之前球速曾經有92-93MPH,
但我們的投教還找不到那個開關
Most scouts prefer Voss's slider to his change-up. The slider frequently shows
solid two-plan break though it can be a bit transparent at times, particularly
to right-handers that see the ball well out of Voss's hand. The pitch can be
effective against left-handers. His slider has a chance to be an average pitch
with added consistency.
這段前半部不確定該怎麼翻
Voss的滑球評價比變速球好,只要加強穩定性可望有平均水準,但目前只對左打者有效,
因為右打者可以很清楚看到他的握法而知道是滑球要出招了!
The change-up has made good strides over the last three years and is now a
pitch he can use on the outer half against right-handers to keep them from
sitting on his fastball. He gets some arm-side fade and occasional sink on the
change but neither is significant or consistent.
這3年來變速球有長足進步,足夠拿來最對付右打。他有學到一些arm-side fade 技術
(我的理解是讓打者誤認球種的揮臂速度OR動作)加上有下沉尾勁,不過都還不夠穩定
Voss shows the potential for average big league command of all three pitches.
He works down in the zone regularly and typically only elevates with a purpose.
He is still learning how to utilize his slider as a chase pitch away from
lefties or on the back foot of righties, but that should come with more
experience.
Voss看來有淺力能將三種球都控制得服服貼貼,但他現在還要學著如何靈學應用搭配來
對付打者
Voss earned high marks for his composure on the mound in 2011. He remained even
keeled throughout his starts and showed good work ethic between outings.
Though Voss has had more success as a starter since joining the Tigers most
scouts see him as more of a middle reliever or swing man. If he tightens his
slider he could be an option as a second situational lefty in the bullpen.
Voss在2011讓大家記住他的名,同時展現更好的工作態度來準備每場比賽,雖然在小聯盟
是先發投手,如果想在大聯盟混口飯吃,(長)中繼左手牛還是比較合理的預估。
如果滑球再練好一點,會是二號左手牛的選項之一 (1號是誰??)
Performance
http://zzb.bz/vrXfD
Level Team W-L ERA G GS SV SO BB IP WHIP
A+ Lakeland 3-0 3.21 8 6 0 30 7 33.2 1.19
AA Erie 9-7 3.67 19 19 0 101 37 115.1 1.15
Health Record
Voss has not seen any significant time on the disabled list in either the
Marlins or Tigers organization. He has maintained a solid workload and showed
minimal signs of tiring toward the end of the 2011 season where he jumped from
less than 70 innings in 2010 to almost 150 innings. He has a clean arm action
and he uses his lower half well, limiting any abnormal stress on his arm.
球員生涯至今沒遭遇任何重大傷痛,只有再去年季末感到手臂疲勞 (原因應是投球局數
暴增兩倍,從不到70局衝到150局)
Voss有簡潔的投球動作,有效利用下盤不過分依賴上半身都降低手臂當機的機率
The Future
Voss will spend the spring working with both the Double-A and Triple-A squads
and could see some limited time in big league camp to help fill out the roster
during some split-squad games.
春訓Voss將會加上2A/3A組,熱身賽大聯盟如果碰到一日兩戰需要多點人手或許會上來透透
氣投個一兩局
If he can't find a spot on the Toledo pitching staff to start the season he
should be back in the Erie rotation for another turn. He is a ways down the MLB
depth chart and would need 40-man roster space to make his big league debut in
2012, but if he pitches well enough he could get a look if injuries strike.
3A搶不到的話,2A輪值一定有它的位置,這個球季如果表現良好,有可能就上來啦
With the current and projected makeup of the Tigers pitching staff over the
next two or three years he will have to either dominate at the upper levels of
the system to get a chance or survive as an up-and-down guy that fills a
variety of roles on the roster.
看看咱們未來兩三年的投手布局,Voss必須要很殺,殺到球團願意給他機會,不過他能扮
演球隊投手布局需要的任何腳色
