9) Micah Owings, RHP Background: The Rockies drafted Owings in the second round in 2002 after he made a run at the national high school career home run record. A two-way star at Georgia Tech, he fell to the 19th round (Cubs) in 2004 because of signability concerns. After transferring to Tulane and leading the Green Wave in homers and pitching strikeouts in 2005, he went in the third round and signed for $440,000. 背景：在締造高中生涯全壘打紀錄後，落磯隊在2002年在第二輪選了Owings。進入Georgia Tech成為投打雙棲明星，但在2004年因為未知可否簽下，而掉到第19輪才被小熊隊挑走。轉學到Tulane後，在2005年全壘打數及三振數領先全隊，因而在第三輪被響尾蛇挑中，拿到了44萬美元的簽約金。 Strengths: Scouts long preferred Owings’ power arm to his bat, and he showed why in his pro debut. He saw his fastball jump to 94-97 mph as a reliever. He also made some adjustments with his mid-80s slider, which became a plus pitch with late downward break. He’s an aggressive strike-thrower who’s not afraid to work inside. 優勢：球探們喜歡他的強肩遠勝他的打擊，而他在職業初登場明白的展現原因。他的球速在中繼時可達94─97英哩，他也針對可達mid-80s的滑球做些許調整，使它變成很晚才變化的良好武器。他是個具侵略性的投手，對於攻擊內角毫不懼怕。 Weaknesses: Owings’ changeup is average at best, and will be his point of emphasis when he returns to the rotation in 2006. He still needs to mature from thrower to pitcher, working harder on setting hitters up instead of challenging them on every pitch. 缺點：Owings的變速球頂多是個平均水準的球種，這將會是他2006年重返先發輪值的重點所在。他仍需要更加成熟，從丟球者變成投手，多用心於誘使打者掉進他的投球策略而並非球球挑戰打者。 The Future: Arizona believes Owings could move quickly as a reliever but offers more value as a starter. He’ll most likely open 2006 in the Lancaster rotation. 未來：響尾蛇隊相信Owings如果在中繼投手的位置上會有較快的升遷，但在先發投手的位置上更能突顯其價值。他2006年可能會在Lancaster的先發輪值出發。 == 標題好像看不到Orz -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 211.76.250.44
