http://tinyurl.com/4bhg8h7 Yazy Arbelo, 1b, Diamondbacks Born: April 7, 1988. B-T: L-R. Ht.: 6-4. Wt.: 220. Drafted.: Keystone (Pa.), 2010 (26th round). Signed by: Shawn Barton. Arbelo turned out to be a real find after the Diamondbacks signed him for $7,000 as a 26th-round pick last June. One of three players Arizona drafted out of tiny NCAA Division III Keystone (Pa.) College, he led the short-season Northwest League with 55 RBIs and ranked second with 15 homers in his pro debut. Arbelo is a dead pull-power hitter with loft in his swing. He hits singles to the opposite field but most of him home runs went to right field. He's primarily a fastball hitter, and one NWL manager commented that he probably couldn't hit a changeup if you told him it was coming. He's a below-average athlete, runner and defender who shows stiff hands at first base, so his bat will have to carry him. Arbelo will get challenged by better pitching and more difficult hitting environments when he advances to Low Class A South Bend in 2011, so learning to hit offspeed pitches will be imperative. Josh Collmenter, rhp, Diamondbacks Born: Feb. 7, 1986. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-4. Wt.: 235. Drafted.: Central Michigan, 2007 (15th round). Signed by: Matt Haas. Collmenter confounds scouts by continuing to get batters out with his mostly unimpressive stuff. He pitched at three levels in 2010, posting a combined record of 14-6, 3.38 with 133 strikeouts in 152 innings while reaching Triple-A. He finished the year with an impressive 4-0, 3.04 stint in the Arizona Fall League. Collmenter adds deception to his pitches by hiding the ball behind his thick body before delivering it with a funky, over-the-top delivery with a pause in the middle. He does a good job of command his football, though it sits at 85-88 mph and lacks life. His best pitch is a plus changeup that he delivers on the same plane as his fastball, and he can vary the speed on hit from the low 60s to the high 70s. His average curveball comes out of the same arm slot as his other two pitches, making it more difficult to pickup. Collmenter's stuff doesn't seem good enough to be a big league starter, but the Diamondbacks will keep him in the rotation as long as he keeps succeeding. They added him to the 40-man roster in November. He'll return to Triple-A Reno to begin 2011 and is on track to make his big league debut later in the year. Cole Gillespie, of, Diamondbacks Born: June 20, 1984. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-1. Wt.: 205. Drafted.: Oregon State, 2006 (3rd round). Signed by: Brandon Newell (Brewers). After helping Oregon State win the 2006 College World Series, Gillespie signed as a third-round pick and became one of the Brewers' best outfield prospects. Milwaukee sent him and Roque Mercedes to Arizona in a July 2009 trade for Felipe Lopez, and Gillespie reached the majors with the Diamondbacks last year. He mostly struggled with major league pitching, hitting .231/.283/.365 in 104 at-bats, though he homered off both John Ely and Yovani Gallardo. Gillespie profiles as a reserve rather than a regular. He controls the strike zone well and should hit for a decent average with gap power. He struggles against righthanders, who pound him inside with fastballs. Gillespie has average speed that plays up on the bases and in the outfield because of his instincts. He has average arm strength and saw most of his big league action in left field after playing primarily center and right field at Triple-A Reno. Gillespie will go to spring training with a chance to win a backup outfield spot, but he could spend 2011 on the Reno-Phoenix shuttle. Yonata Ortega, rhp, Diamondbacks Born: Nov. 11, 1986. B-T: R-R Ht.: 6-1. Wt.: 220 Signed.: Dominican Republic, 2005. Signed by: Junior Noboa. Ortega won just two games in his first four seasons after signing, missing all of 2008 following Tommy John surgery. He had a breakout year in 2010, saving 33 games between two Class A stops, including 11 in 13 appearances at high Class A Visalia. The Diamondbacks responded by placing him on their 40-man roster rather than risk exposing him to the Rule 5 draft. Ortega's main weapon is a 93-94 mph fastball that touches 96 and has heavy sink. He also throws a hard splitter that can be nasty when it's on. He also throws a slider, but it's unreliable. Ortega's funky delivery makes it hard for batters to pick up his pitches, but also hampers his command. He has closer potential, one of the few such arms in the Arizona system, but he'll need to become much more consistent to get there. He's ready for Double-A Mobile. Konrad Schmidt, c. Diamondbacks Born: Aug. 2, 1984. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-0. Wt.: 225. Drafted.: Nevada-Reno, NDFA 2007. Signed by: Jim Dedrick. Since signing out of Nevada-Reno as an undrafted free agent in 2007, Schmidt has progressed from an organizational soldier into a prospect with a chance at a major league career as a backup catcher. He had a strong year at Double-A Mobile in 2010, batting .315/.373/.490, before getting rewarded with a late season call-up to the big leagues. Schmidt has an aggressive, early-in-the-count approach but avoids the usual peaks and valleys associated with those types of hitters. He hits the ball line to line and has fringy power. Schmidt's defense has improved considerably in pro ball, especially his receiving, and he's now a plus catcher. He has strong hands and solid arm strength, and he threw out 26 percent of basestealers last year. He's a well below-average runner. A gamer who gets the most out of his ability, Schmidt will battle John Hester for Arizona's backup job behind Miguel Montero. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.25.133
