最新出來的 Ask BA 又有球迷問到 Conor Jackson 以及 Carlos Quentin 的近況
而且這名球迷很有意思
因為他提到了與 Austin Kearn 以及 Adam Dunn 的比較
我覺得非常的有創意....
Seeing Diamondbacks outfielders Conor Jackson and Carlos Quentin destroy
the minor leagues reminds me of what Austin Kearns and Adam Dunn did a few
years back. What do scouts think in regards to if Jackson and Quentin have
the same timetable for reaching the majors, and whether one is a more
natural player than the other?

I hadn't made the Jackson/Quentin-to-Kearns/Dunn connection before, but
that's an interesting one. Cincinnati took Kearns in the first round and
Dunn in the second round of the 1998 draft, while Arizona made Jackson and
Quentin first-rounders a year ago. Jackson and Quentin came out of college,
so they're more advanced than Kearns and Dunn were entering pro ball out
of high school, but both combinations did plenty of damage to minor league
pitching. Let's take a quick look at what Kearns and Dunn did in low Class A
in 2000, compared to how Jackson and Quentin have fared between high Class A
and Double-A this year:
Kearns/Dunn, 2000 vs. Jackson/Quentin, 2004
G AVG HR RBI SB BB SO OBP SLG
-------------------------------------------------------------
Kearns/Dunn, 2000 258 .294 43 183 42 190 194 .421 .517
Jackson/Quentin, 2004 173 .334 31 135 11 84 86 .432 .551
The comparison holds up well statistically. Jackson (22) and Quentin (21)
are older than Kearns and Dunn (both 20) were, but they've also faced
stiffer competition. Kearns and Dunn are a bit more athletic, an advantage
that shows up in stolen bases. Both pairs have identical strikeout-walk
ratios, with Kearns and Dunn being more prolific in both categories.
Though Quentin missed all of last summer recovering from Tommy John surgery,
he and Jackson still figure to arrive in Arizona at the same time, which
figures to be the end of 2005 or beginning of 2006. I wouldn't characterize
one as more of a natural hitter or athlete than the other. They've very
similar corner outfielders, with Jackson owning a little more raw power
and Quentin possessing more arm strength.
D-Backs 農場中積極培養外野手
除了 Jackson 和 Quentin 之外
剛升上大聯盟的 Luis Terrero 也頗令人期待
另外還有 Josh Kroeger (AA), Marland Williams (AA)
甚至今年剛選進來的 Jonathan Zeringue (A) 都是非常有潛力的新秀....
