Top 100 Prospects Chat with Jim Callis 以下是跟D-backs有關的 ------------------------------------------------------ Q: Jaypers from IL asks: Very pleasantly surprised to see Upton make such an auspicious debut at # 2. In a best case scenario, if he lives up to every single expectation, how fast will he have ascended through the system by this year's end? A: Jim Callis: Best case, he's pushing for the big leagues by the end of the year and gets there toward the beginning of 2007. I really think he's going to be the next Ken Griffey Jr. (the uninjured star version). Q: Jaypers from IL asks: Well, we have a kid with amazing potential, yet no minor league experience under his belt versus a potential R.O.Y. candidate who will make his debut in the show this year. How close was it between Upton and Delmon for the coveted # 1 spot? Did any of your staffers actually rank Upton ABOVE Delmon? A: Jim Callis: If I believed Upton was definitely a shortstop, I might have been able to put him at No. 1. None of us had him over Young. I didn't ask anyone else, but I think it's the fact that Young has proven himself all the way up the ladder versus Upton's lack of pro experience, plus that they'll both probably be outfielders. Q: Russell Lynn from Atchison, KS asks: In BA's 2006 Top 100 Prospect List, Justin Upton is ranked # 2 and Andrew McCutchen is ranked # 50. Looking at both player's senior High School stats, McCutchen clearly blew Upton away in my opinion. I know hype plays a part in the rankings, and Justin is BJ's little brother, and has been talked about since age 12. However, going by Justin's and McCutchen's senior high school stats, how can Justin be rated so high, and McCutchen so far down the list? A: Jim Callis: It would be a grave mistake to rate players based on their high school stats. I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from Rookie ball stats, and Rookie ball is light years ahead of high school ball. Any idea how either player's home ballpark might have contributed to their stats? What kind of protection they had in the lineup? How to compare their quality of opposition? Q: Simon from Montreal, Canada asks: Wow, so many D-Backs in the top 35. Are we looking at a future dynasty? A: Jim Callis: Very well could be. I think they may have set a record with six guys that high on our list. Q: Dean from Madison asks: What player in the top 100 has the best chance to shoot up the list next year? Outside the top 100? A: Jim Callis: To steal an answer from my ESPN.com chat, I think Carlos Gonzales (No. 32) could jump right up to the very top of the list after 2006. From off the list, watch Devil Rays righthander Wade Davis. Q: Matt in Oakland from Oakland asks: UPTON numnber 2 is joke. He will never go to an All-star game and you will regret it forever. A: Jim Callis: Thanks for the laugh, Matt. If you can find someone to hold our money, name your price and you have a bet. Justin Upton will play in some All-Star Games. -- 關於Upton的問題還真多 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.63.110.60
