10. Yoan Lopez, right-handed pitcher, 23 years old
YoanLopezWhy He’s in the Top Ten: Signed out of Cuba, Lopez agreed to the
largest bonus in history for an international amateur at $8.25 million on
January 13, 2015. He was coveted by many MLB teams, including the Yankees,
Giants, and Padres, mainly because of his stuff and his effective pitching
for Isla de Javentud in the Cuban National Series. Over that three-year span
when he was between 18 and 20 years of age, he combined to throw 232 innings,
allow 235 hits and just ten home runs, and strike out 117 batters while
posting a 3.76 ERA. His final season in Cuba in 2013 was his bet yet, when he
surrendered 17 earned runs and tallied a career-low 11 walks over 49 innings.
He has a good, moving fastball that consistently started out in the low 90s,
but can now reach the mid-90s thanks to the size and strength he has added to
a relatively small, 6-3, 195 pound frame, to go along with a plus side-arm
slider that can be very difficult on right-handed hitters. At the time he was
signed, he was only given a minor-league contract, but the Diamondbacks
invited him to spring training and general manager Dave Stewart expected him
to legitimately compete for a spot in the Opening Day starting rotation.
為什麼他在前十:
從古巴簽來,Lopez在2015年一月13號簽了史上國際業餘球員最高的的825萬簽約
金。他之前被很多MLB球隊追,包含養雞、巨人和教士,主要的原因是因為他的
stuff和他為古巴國內聯賽的sla de Javentud有效率的投球。在他18~20歲的這
三年之間,他投了232局,被打了235隻安打,只有十隻全壘打三振了117位打者,
同時有著3.76ERA。他在2013年也就是最後一年在古巴的球季更加出色,49局只有投
出生涯最低的11次保送,17分自責分。他速球很好而且會移動,大部分穩定的在
low-90不過因為他的相對小隻6-3,190磅的骨架所以可以投到mid-90,加上一顆
對右投而言可能會很難打的側投滑球。在他被簽的當下,他只有被簽小聯盟約,
不過響尾蛇因請他到春訓來,且GM Dave Steward期待他能夠加入競爭開幕先發輪值
的行列中。
Why He’s Not Ranked Higher: Lopez ended up starting the 2015 season with the
AA Mobile YoanLopez2BayBears, but he never really got on track. Over ten
games, he went just 1-6 and allowed 46 hits, 27 earned runs, and 24 walks in
48 innings. He battled through a blister and elbow soreness, and he took an
unexpected leave of absence from the BayBears in July. Control and command
has always been an issue for Lopez; in his first two years for Isla de
Javentud, he walked more batters than he struck out (109 to 89) and had
elevated WHIPs (1.63 and 1.59). He also hit 11 batters in 2012 and – in Cuba
’s 18U National League in 2011 – he ranked second in walks (45) and third
in wild pitches (9) despite dominant numbers elsewhere (1.74 ERA and 88
strikeouts over 77 1/3 innings). He’s a huge wild card with limited upside;
he’s capable of being a starting pitcher in the middle to back end of the
rotation, but he’s more likely to be a shut-down reliever in the seventh or
eighth inning mainly due to his fastball and slider. His changeup and
curveball are average at best. Unless Lopez develops a consistent third
pitch, harnesses his control with his fastball, and really dominates the
minors, I don’t see him having an impact for the Diamondbacks in 2016. The
big-league pitching staff is deep and has a lot of options with more upside.
為什麼他沒有排更高:Lopez後來在AA的Mobile開始他的球季,不過他從來沒有在
該在的軌道上。在十場比賽中,他只有1勝6敗,48局被打了46隻安打,27自責分,
還有24次保送。他遇到了水泡和手肘的傷勢,而且他在七月無預警的暫時離隊。
控球對他一直都是問題:他在古巴的前兩個球季,他保送得比三振得還多(109對89)
且WHIP相當高(1.63和1.59)。他在2012也投了11個觸身球,而在古巴十八歲以下的
聯盟的2011年球季中,他在保送排名第二(45),暴投第三(9)雖然其他方面還蠻
宰制的。(77.1局內1.74防禦率和88次三振)他是個具有有限優勢的外卡球員、他
可以變成一個輪值圈後段或中萬的先發,不過看起他應該更像個因為他的速球和
滑球,變成個可以封鎖打者的七或八局後援。他的變速球和曲球就頂多普通而已。
除非Lopez長出個穩定的第三的球路,並且找到控制速球的方法,還有真的在小聯盟
宰制,我不認為他能夠在2016能對大聯盟有什麼戰局影響力。目前的大聯盟投手們
陣容很深、有很多可以選的而且優點更多。
9. Peter O’Brien, catcher/infielder/outfielder, 25 years old
peterO'Brien1Why He’s in the Top Ten: Originally selected by the Yankees as
the 94th overall pick in the 2012 draft and then shipped to the Diamondbacks
in a 2014 trade deadline deal featuring infielder Martin Prado, O’Brien is
coveted simply because he has extraordinary power. He has smashed 92 total
home runs in 408 games and 1,548 at-bats in the minor leagues, including 34
alone for three different teams during the 2014 season, and he’s pounded at
least ten jacks in all of his minors seasons. He participated in the 2015
Triple A All-Star Game as a member of the Reno Aces, finishing as the
runner-up with 20 total homers. Additionally, he has 107 doubles on his
register, with a career-high 39 coming at the Single A level in 2013 and
another 35 coming last year. He’s been known to put up decent walk rates (41
in 2013 and 31 in 2014) and his career on-base percentage isn’t horrible
(.323). He drove in 107 runs in 2015, his first time reaching the
triple-digit plateau in that category.
為什麼他在前十:本來是被洋基2012年全部94順位選,他在2014年因為那個Prado
交易被送來響尾蛇。 O'Brien被人期待就因為他有非一般的砲瓦。他在小聯盟
的408場比賽,1548個打數共幹了92隻全壘打,包含2014在三個不同隊伍總共幹了
34隻。他小聯盟球季每一季都至少幹了十發。他2015在Reno Aces被選進AAA明星賽,
總共幹了20隻全壘打。他總共生涯打了107隻二安,生涯最多是2013年在A的39隻,
後一年則是35隻。他的保送率還可以,(2013年41,2014年31)他的生涯上壘率也
不差。他在2015年首次打了到達三位數的107分打點。
Why He’s Not Ranked Higher: As is the case with every power hitter of O’
Brien’s caliber, he is one dimensional. He has struck out 431
times in his minor-league career, and he has topped 120 Ks in each of the
last three seasons. He has no speed to speak of (one stolen base, caught five
times) and his walk rate could still improve (he walked a meager 21 times in
2014). His glove leaves much to be desired and he lacks a true position
anyway. He has primarily been behind the plate and that is where the
Diamondbacks wanted him to stick, especially since they are in sorely need of
talent and depth at that spot, but they scrapped that experiment with O’
Brien in May of 2014 and converted him into a full-time outfielder instead.
The three current starters in the major-league outfield – David Peralta,
A.J. Pollock, and Yasmany Tomas – are locked in for the distant future, and
Socrates Brito and Gabby Guerrero are probably first in the wings in the
event that one or more of the incumbents goes down to injury. If O’Brien is
going to be in the field, he is best-suited for first base, but that spot is
taken by Paul Goldschmidt, one of the five best players in all of baseball.
Given his overall pedigree and his enormous build (he’s 6-4, 235), he
logically projects as a designated hitter. Unless he figures out how to
catch, he doesn’t fit the Diamondbacks and – quite frankly – it is a shock
that he’s still in the organization. He might scratch out a spot on the
bench on the Opening Day roster in 2016, but he more than likely will
languish in Reno, where he has nothing to prove.
為什麼他沒有排更高:在和他一樣有泡瓦的人一樣,他就只強這項。他在小聯盟生涯
總共被三振了431次,過去三個球季每季都被三振120次以上。他也沒有任何速度可言。
(一次盜壘,五次被抓到)他的保送率可以再加強。他的守備還有進步空間而不管怎樣
他沒有什麼天然屬於他的位置。他之前有主要在本壘板接球過,這也是響尾蛇當初
把他弄來想要他的位置,尤其是當年他們非常需要那個位置有天份的球員,不過他們
發現這O'Brien的實驗炸裂所以在2014年五月開始把他轉成全職的外野手。不過現在
響尾蛇大聯盟有三個:Pollock、Peralta和Tomas,而且短期內都不會變。就算有人
受傷,Brito和Gabby Guererro還是在第一波補上去的名單。如果他要上場守備的話
他的最好的位置是一壘手,不過你也知道那個位置現在被一個叫GoldSchmidt的那個
大概是全聯盟前五強的球員站著。以他的出身跟大隻程度,他理論上最好的位置是
DH。除非他在接球方面開竅,響尾蛇並不是個適合他的地方,而且老實說,他現在
還在敝隊其實都讓人有點驚訝。他可能會在開幕戰的板凳某處,不過更有可能回去
那個叫Reno的地方,而且在那邊他也沒啥能進步的了。
8. Brandon Drury, infielder, 23 years old
BrandonDrury2Why He’s in the Top Ten: Acquired from the Braves on January
24, 2013 in the blockbuster trade involving Justin Upton, Drury is a contact
and line drive hitter, as he has hit .285 over 2,487 at-bats in the minor
leagues. His two best seasons are 2013, when he posted a .302 batting average
with 15 home runs, 51 doubles, and four triples at Single A South Bend; and
2014, when he posted a .300 average with 19 home runs and 35 doubles in 107
games at High A Visalia. He also had a strong 2015 season spanning AA Mobile
and AAA Reno, hitting .303 with 40 doubles and 159 total base hits, although
his power dipped considerably (five total homers). He has a good eye and
discipline at the plate, drawing a career-high 48 walks while posting a .362
on-base percentage in 2013 and registering a .384 OBP over 63 games and 251
at-bats at Reno last season. For his minor-league career, he has walked a
total of 162 times and has a .334 on-base percentage, and he has not reached
the 100-strikeout mark in any minor-league season. The Diamondbacks called
Drury up to the majors for the first time on September 1st of 2015.
為什麼他在前十:從那個2013年著名的 Justin Upton的勇士交易盤來,Drury他
就是一個把球打結實和打平飛球的打者。他在小聯盟的2487個打術打了.285的打擊率
他最好的兩個球季是A的2013,.302打擊率,十五發和51隻二壘安打,四隻三安:
還有2014在High A的.300打率,19發和35隻二安。2015在AA和AAA總共.303打率40
二安和159隻安打,不過泡瓦就少了不少(五發)他選球不錯而且對好球帶判斷很好
,2013年凹了生涯最高的48次保送和.362上壘率,去年則是在Ren63場,251次打擊有
.384上壘率。在他的小聯盟生涯中,他總共凹了162次保送,.334上壘率,而且他從
來沒有被三振超過一百次過。響尾蛇在2015年九月一號第一次拉他上來。
Why He’s Not Ranked Higher: Take away his performance at Reno and Drury’s
2015 season is BrandonDrurylargely unimpressive. The Aces play at a high
elevation in the notorious hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, so any top
hitting prospects should have impressive offensive numbers at that level.
Drury put up a .278 average with 14 doubles in 273 at-bats and 63 games
overall at Mobile, but he batted just .250 with a sub-.300 OBP in his first
85 plate appearances, and his power all but disappearing (especially at Reno)
is a major concern since that was the primary aspect of his game that caused
his prospect stock to rise in the first place. Visalia is also in a hitters’
league – the California League – so the 19 jacks that Drury had there can
probably be considered a fluke. His swing is choppy and his hardest hit balls
tend to be line drives right at infielders. He lacks speed (17 stolen bases,
17 caught stealings in the minors) and he has a below-average arm. His lack
of strikeouts and his consistent contact should allow him to stick in the
majors, but he doesn’t have a true position. His power potential and quick
hands and footwork on defense probably make him a better fit for third base,
but the Diamondbacks already have 26-year-old Jake Lamb entrenched there
full-time. Second base is probably the organization’s weakest spot, but
Arizona just acquired Jean Segura to play there and they also have Chris
Owings as an option at the position.
為什麼他沒有排更前面:不算Reno,他的2015年球季其實他沒有表現很好。Reno在
惡名昭彰的高海拔偏打者太平洋岸聯盟,所以任何很前面的新秀都應該在這聯盟有
很威的打擊表現。Drury在Mobile的273打席,63場是.278打率,14隻安。不過他前
85個PA只有.250和低於.300的上壘率。他的泡瓦不見了(尤其在Reno)而他之所以
會突然被注意到一開始就是因為他的泡瓦。Visalia一樣也是打者聯盟(加州聯盟)
所以19發可能只是個假象。他會砍球而且打最強的球通常都是噴向內野手那種。
他沒有速度(17次盜壘,17次被抓)而且他的臂力也低於平均。他的低三振率和
碰球能力應該可以讓他待在大聯盟,不過他沒有什麼真正的位置。他的泡瓦潛力
和防守的快手、腳步可能會讓他比較適合三壘,不過響尾蛇已經有個叫做羊的26
歲三壘手,而且會在那裡待著。二壘手可能是整最弱的位置,不過響尾蛇剛盤來
Segura,而且Owings也會是個那位置的選項。
累了晚點翻 XD
7. Silvino Bracho, right-handed pitcher, 23 years old
SilvinoBrachoWhy He’s in the Top Ten: Born in Venezuela, Bracho has somehow
failed to grab a lot of headlines despite ascending through the minors
rapidly. He was at Single A South Bend as recently as 2014, where he had 70
strikeouts, just eight walks, and a WHIP of 0.76 covering 43 1/3 innings. He
started 2015 at High A Visalia, where 14 strikeouts, one hit, and one walk
earned him a promotion to Mobile after six games. With the BayBears, he
surrendered just nine free passes and ten runs while striking out 59 over 44
2/3 innings. The Diamondbacks called him up to the big leagues for the first
time on August 30th, 2015 and he didn’t miss a beat there, either. He
allowed two runs (both on homers), issued four walks, and struck out 17 over
12 1/3 innings. His full minor league career reads like this: a 1.52 ERA, 28
runs allowed, 211 strikeouts, a .193 opponents’ batting average, and 26
walks spanning 148 1/3 innings. Simply put, Bracho has been lights-out at
every level of professional baseball he has played and has given little
reason to doubt his ability to be a fixture in a major-league bullpen for
many years to come. He’s not overpowering, but his four seam fastball hovers
in the low-90s and is mixed with a slider that touches the low-80s, a cut
fastball, a curveball, and a slider. He’s also able to change speeds
effectively, as his curve and slider can be thrown as low as 79 mph. He’s
the Diamondbacks closer of the future.
Why He’s Not Ranked Higher: He won’t be a prospect for much longer because
he is likely in the SilvinoBracho2majors for good. He had a high chance of
pitching in high-leverage situations for the Diamondbacks in 2016 before they
signed veteran setup man Tyler Clippard, but he will now likely have to
settle for a role as a middle to back-end reliever in the immediate future.
Also, no matter how strong his credentials are, the upside of a relief
pitcher like Bracho is always going to be limited because he probably won’t
be pitching more than one or two innings unless he is a long man, and he’s a
bit susceptible to the longball (eight total homers in the minors, three in
each of the last two years).
6. Zach Godley, right-handed pitcher, 25 years old
Godley1Why He’s in the Top Ten: Drafted by the Cubs in the tenth round of
the 2013 draft out of Tennessee, he was picked up by the Diamondbacks on
December 9, 2014 as part of a trade that Arizona made mostly to dump the
bloated salary of catcher Miguel Montero, so expectations of Godley were
incredibly low. He preceded to break out in 2015, compiling a 2.27 ERA, 78
strikeouts, 19 walks, and a .228 opponents batting average in 14 games (12
starts) and 75 1/3 innings at High A Visalia before earning his first
promotion to the majors on July 23. Godley would become the first starting
pitcher since 1900 to pitch at least six innings, walk none, and strike out
at least seven in his MLB debut, and he would surrender just three total runs
while striking out 17 in 18 innings over his first three starts. Overall, he
would finish his big-league season with a 5-1 record, a 3.19 ERA, 34
strikeouts, and a .227 opponents batting average covering 36 2/3 innings and
nine appearances (six starts). Like Bracho, he’s not overpowering, but he
has four reliable pitches with considerable movement and he can change speeds
well. He features cutting and sinking fastballs that reach 91 and 92 mph,
respectively, and he includes a changeup and curveball that are each in the
low-80s. His four-seam fastball can hit as high as 93 mph, but he rarely
displays it. Both his change and his curve are high swing and miss pitches.
Why He’s Not Ranked Higher: Considering he had never advanced beyond Single
A before last godley2season, Godley is pretty old (he turns 26 on April 21st)
and not likely to get much better. He can have difficulty throwing strikes
(24 walks and a 1.32 WHIP in 55 1/3 innings over two levels of A ball in 2014
and at least two walks in four of his six starts with the Diamondbacks –
including six in just 3 2/3 innings in a September 4th start), his cut
fastball velocity and secondary pitches are largely uninspiring despite all
the movement, and he seemed to benefit from tremendous luck last season.
Also, despite starting 23 of the 30 games he pitched in during the 2016
season, all 54 of his appearances covering the 2013 and 2014 seasons were out
of the bullpen. The Diamondbacks optioned him down to Mobile on August 5th in
an effort to conserve his arm, but he still ended up shattering his previous
career-high in innings by approximately 80. Godley will enter spring training
of 2016 in a crowded competition for the #5 spot in the rotation and that is
probably his ceiling. Still, it’s difficult to complain about what Godley
brings to the table when he was originally nothing more than a throw-in to a
salary dump.
