No.20: Nick Goody ( https://goo.gl/kYhN53 ) No.19: Bradley Zimmer ( https://goo.gl/D7ng28 ) No.18: Lonnie Chisenhall ( https://goo.gl/WzwMVr ) No.17: Yan Gomes ( https://goo.gl/EYgwh3 ) No.16: Zach McAllister ( https://goo.gl/Zmes94 ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No. 20: Nick Goody made a name for himself in 2017 Cleveland Indians reliever Nick Goody had the best season of his career in 2017 and should receive even more time on the mound in 2018. Nick Goody‘s arrival at the end of 2016 was overshadowed by the big news surrounding the Cleveland Indians‘ acquisition of Edwin Encarnacion, but Goody earned himself some recognition in 2017. He wasn’t immediately set to be part of the Opening Day bullpen, but Goody made his first appearance on April 14, logging two scoreless innings. He would not allow a single earned run until June 3. Goody didn’t have a massive workload in 2017, but still logged 54.2 innings in 56 appearances. He allowed 17 earned runs and 20 total runs, but eight of those earned runs came in just three appearances. With Bryan Shaw now gone, Goody figures to have a more important role in this bullpen. At the top is the dominant duo of Andrew Miller and Cody Allen, while it will be a competition between Goody, Dan Otero, Tyler Olson and Zach McAllister to see who can become the go-to third option. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Olson may be exempt as he could become the matchup guy against lefties. The best thing about Goody is that it is easy to forget his name when mentioning the bullpen because he didn’t make any major mistakes. He never had a truly horrific outing, and quietly did his job for most of the season. He had two outings in which he allowed at least three earned runs, but never had a game that made fans hate him like some hated Shaw. 2017 was Goody’s first year of regular work in a major league bullpen, so fans should expect an even better year from him in 2018. His sample size is small, but his strikeouts increased with the full year of work while his walks went down when considering the extra work compared to his short year in 2016. Some fans are panicking a bit now that both Shaw and Joe Smith will be playing elsewhere in 2018, but Goody should do just fine in a bigger role. The panic can set in at the end of the 2018 season when Miller and Allen are free agents. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No20: 2017，Nick Goody 成名的那一年笑臉人的中繼投手Nick Goody在2017年投出生涯至今最佳的表現，也替自己明年球季贏得更多出賽的機會。 Nick Goody在2016年季末加盟笑臉人的消息被EE接受笑臉人合約這個更重大的新聞蓋過去了，但他在2017年用自己的表現贏回了應有的關注。 2017年的開幕戰其實Goody還沒被放入笑臉人的牛棚名單中，但他在4月14號球季初登板就繳出中繼兩局無失分的表現，直到六月三號才失掉第一分自責分。Goody在2017年球季的工作量並不算太大，56場出賽中吃下54.2局，掉了20分，其中有17分是自責分，不過有八分自責分是集中在三場比賽。隨著Shaw的離隊，Goody對笑臉人的牛棚而言勢必更加重要，笑臉人牛棚目前主要是由A米和Cody Allen坐鎮，Goody預計將會和Dan Otero、Tyler Olson與Zach McAllister共同爭取銜接先發與這兩位八九局主力牛棚中間的要角。Olson也可能不會去競爭這個位置，他或許會被任命為專職對付左打的投手。當提到Goody時，大多數人似乎沒有太多印象，這對Goody來說是件很棒的事，這代表他在牛棚並未犯下任何讓球迷耿耿於懷的重大失誤。他從未經歷過一場很糟糕恐怖的出賽，在球季大多數的時刻，他都是靜靜的完成他自己應做的工作。他有兩場出賽掉了三分以上的自責分，但未曾如Shaw一樣，投出極為糟糕的比賽讓球迷痛恨咒罵至今。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017年是Goody在大聯盟牛棚固定出賽的第一年，所以球迷可以期待他在明年球季能有更好的表現。雖然樣本數不夠多，但他的三振能力在去年球季卻是上升的，保送率和2016年不多的出賽數相比，也是降低的。有些球迷會對Shaw與Smith在季末離隊的消息感到難過，但Goody有能力在未來球隊中負擔更重要的角色，補足牛棚戰力。如果球迷要難過的話，留到明年球季結束後，雙A並肩成為自由球員時再好好難過吧。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No19: Bradley Zimmer had a solid start to his career in 2017 Cleveland Indians outfielder Bradley Zimmer made a positive impact on the team in 2017 and will look to get better in 2018. The sight of Jason Kipnis in center field during the 2017 postseason was shocking for some Cleveland Indians fans, but it may have never happened if Bradley Zimmer didn’t get injured. Zimmer knocked himself out for the postseason with a headfirst slide into first base just three weeks before the end of the regular season. If not for that, who knows what would have happened in October. It is a stretch to say that Zimmer’s presence would have changed the outcome of the ALDS, but it is fair to say that he had a solid rookie season stepping into a situation such as this one. He joined a contending team and never did anything to hurt his team while in town. Zimmer slashed .241/.307/.385 in 101 games, although his numbers would have been much better if not for a slump that lasted from August up until his injury in September. Zimmer slashed .141/.215/.155 in an August to forget. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ But Aaron Judge was also slumping during the latter part of the season, so let ’s chalk it up to being a rookie for now. The best thing about Zimmer is his range in center field. He actually covers so much ground he has to be careful in the future because he can reach the wall so quickly and he seems to not realize when he is running out of room. Crashing into the wall to make a catch is an exciting sight, but it could lead to some unnecessary injuries. That range was sorely missed in the postseason, but the good news is that Zimmer proved himself to where he is an asset for this team moving forward. He also had 18 stolen bases and was only caught one time. If he can raise his average and begin to draw more walks, Zimmer can be a weapon in the leadoff spot with players like Francisco Lindor, Jose Ramirez and Edwin Encarnacion waiting to drive him in. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fans are hoping Zimmer’s year wasn’t a fluke, and even his slump later in the season didn’t seem to be due to him losing his ability. Striking out a lot happens to some rookies, so hopefully having a year of experience and an offseason to study what went wrong will lead to a true breakout season for Zimmer in 2018. It sure would be nice to have another star in center field. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No19: Bradley Zimmer，擁有穩定先發機會的2017球季 Zimmer在2017年對球隊有相當正面的貢獻，明年的他應該能有更好的表現。 Kip在2017年季後賽鎮守中外野的那幕確實讓許多笑臉人球迷感到驚訝，但只要Zimmer能夠保持健康，這個情景將只能追憶。Zimmer在球季結束前三周，因為一次往一壘的頭部滑壘導致無法於季後賽出場。如果這件事沒有發生，今年十月最終的結果會怎樣還很難說。雖然說Zimmer的出賽能完全改變美聯分區系列賽的結果是有點誇張，但至少他能夠完整地走完這個菜鳥球季，並且帶著最佳狀態進入季後賽，我們是可以期待這樣的Zimmer對球隊能有更多的貢獻，畢竟他是在一支具競爭力的球隊，同時他的表現對球隊來說是加分的。 Zimmer在101場的比賽中繳出.241/.307/.385的打擊成績，如果不考慮他在八月底到九月受傷前的那段低潮的話，他的成績會更好看。他在低潮時的打擊三圍只有.141/.215/.155 ，不過即使強如Aaron Judge也會在球季尾端出現低潮，就讓我們把Zimmer的低潮當作是菜鳥必繳的學費。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Zimmer在中外野的守備範圍一直都是他最銳利的武器，但他守備時的移動速度與範圍反而是我們需要特別小心的事情，因為他速度太快了，能夠很快地移動到全壘打牆邊拚一些困難的case，但他似乎會因為太專注於球的位置忽略他與全壘打牆間的距離。對外野手來說，用盡全力去拚一些全壘打牆邊的球是件很爽的事情，但同時也會造成一些不必要的傷勢。他的傷勢已經讓笑臉人在季後賽失去了頂尖的外野守備。但好消息是Zimmer已證明他自己的身手，他將會是球隊未來重要的資產。Zimmer上季有18次盜壘成功，只有一次失敗被抓到，如果他能提升打擊率並試圖獲得更多的保送，Zimmer將會是稱職的前段棒次，利用高上壘率與速度等著Lindor、Jose Ramirez與EE來將他送回本壘。球迷都希望Zimmer去年球季的表現不是曇花一現，球季尾聲的低潮並不是被看破手腳。極高的三振率對某些菜鳥來說是無法避免的，希望他能好好利用這一年的大聯盟經驗，在季後做些調整與修正，期待他能在2018球季能破繭而出。能在中外野擁有一位明星球員是件非常好的事! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No.18 :Injuries limited Lonnie Chisenhall’s potential in 2017 Lonnie Chisenhall put up some solid numbers for the Cleveland Indians in 2017, but may have been a much bigger asset if not for several injuries. Cleveland Indians fans saw Lonnie Chisenhall put up some nice numbers in 2017. The problem was he only appeared in 82 games. Chisenhall missed time in every single month of the season due to several setbacks, but still managed to slash .288/.360/.521 in 236 at-bats. He was unfortunately one of several Indians who was brought back for the postseason right off an injury, and was never able to get much of anything going in the ALDS. The veteran figures to receive a major role as a starting outfielder in 2018, but his health remains a question. His career-high in games played is 142, which came back in 2014. To be fair, the platoon system used by Terry Francona also has an impact on Chisenhall’s usage. Chisenhall’s slash line would have been near the top of the list for the entire team if he had played an entire season, so fans are hoping he can keep it up in 2018. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ His career marks are .266/.316/.426, so gradual improvement would be nice yet again. The likely departure of Jay Bruce, (has anyone heard from him?), means Chisenhall is the starting right fielder to start the season. He may be in a platoon role with Brandon Guyer, but it all depends on whether Michael Brantley will be healthy enough to be the everyday starter in left. But what we do know is that no matter the position, we should see a lot of Lonnie this season if he stays healthy. Chisenhall has been with the Indians since 2011 but has never had a season that has blown fans away. 2017 had the potential to be that year, but maybe his improved numbers mean a healthy year in 2018 will be his breakout season. Just in time for a potential year of free agency in 2019. Lonnie has always been a consistent figure in the lineup, but it is about time he takes the next step and puts up All-Star numbers. I certainly believe he is capable of doing just that in 2018. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No18：傷勢限制了Lonnie Chisenhall 的發展潛力 Lonnie Chrisenhall 在去年球季的確繳出了一定的成績，但如果他能夠避免頻繁的受傷，他將會是球隊更重要的資產。笑臉人的球迷會注意到Lonnie Chisenhall在2017球季的表現其實不錯，但問題是他只出賽了82場比賽，每個月他都會因為舊傷復發的關係而缺席一些比賽，不過在236個打數中，還是繳出.288/.360/.521的成績。不幸的是，他也是那群剛離開傷兵名單就馬上投入季後賽的球員之一，導致他在美聯分區系列賽中無法提供球隊太多貢獻。這位老鳥明年球季應該會是主要的先發外野手，但問題還是在於他的健康。他生涯目前單季最多的出賽數是在2014年，但也只出賽了142場。嚼嚼的左右病也會影響使用Chisenhall的時機。如果Chisenhall能夠打滿整個球季，以他的打擊三圍來看，他的打擊貢獻應該會是球隊的前段班，這也是球迷會期待他能在2018年繼續保持打擊手感的原因。他生涯的打擊成績是.266/.316/.426，因此能像今年一樣再次獲得大幅進步的話，會是一件很棒的事。 Jay Bruce的離隊表示在明年開季Chisenhal應該會擔任先發右外野手，預計他會和Guyer 一起依照對方先發的慣有手來輪流上場，但前提是Michale Brantley的健康狀況足以讓他每天都在左外野奔馳。不論如何，我們可以確定只要Chisenhall能保持健康，他會在球隊中獲得大量出賽機會。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chisenhall自從2011年成為笑臉人的一員後，從未讓球迷失望過，但2017年的表現有可能讓球迷開始對他感到失望，不過打擊數據上大幅的進步也可能讓球迷期待如果他在2018年球季能保持健康的話，將會是大爆發的一年。而且他在2019年就會成為自由球員，所以為了拚大約，他明年的表現是讓人相當期待。 Chisenhall過去在球隊打線中一直都是那種穩定但表現普通的球員，但現在差不多是時候該成長，往明星球員的身手邁進的時刻。我非常期待能夠看到他在2018年的蛻變。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No.17: Yan Gomes didn’t excel or disappoint in 2017 Cleveland Indians catcher Yan Gomes didn’t have an amazing season in 2017, but he still stood out as the top catcher on the team. The Francisco Mejia hype train keeps rolling along, but Cleveland Indians fans can get used to seeing a lot of Yan Gomes behind the plate once again in 2018. Gomes appeared in 105 games in 2017, slashing a disappointing .232/.309/.399, but keeping the #DontRunOnYan tweets alive. He didn’t play well enough to completely fend off Roberto Perez, who still appeared in 73 games last season. Luckily for Gomes, Perez didn’t do much better at the plate. Offense from the catcher position has been an issue since Gomes won the Silver Slugger Award in 2014. Injuries have been a factor, but this poor play on offense has caused some fans to be ready for Mejia as early as last season. The tricky thing is the contract situation, as Gomes is with the team through at least 2019, with the organization holding options in both 2020 and 2021. Perez is here through at least 2020 with two club options as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A trade is always possible, and Gomes’ name may come up this summer if Mejia continues to progress in the minors. He is already the team’s top prospect so it’s only a matter of time. But for now, Gomes is set to be the primary option at catcher once again in 2018. And while his 2017 wasn’t all that great, he played close to his career averages of .244/.291/.418. His best two seasons came in 2013 and 2014, so it remains to be seen if he is truly declining or if a full year of healthy baseball will lead him to having a breakout season in 2018. The other possibility is that he is what his averages state, and his defense is what makes him a weapon. Gomes isn’t a star player, but he isn’t expected to be one in this lineup. He is reliable behind the plate and capable of outbursts on offense, or even entire seasons of success such as what he did in 2014. Fans are just hoping he has another breakout year in 2018. If he doesn’t, it may cost him his job in Cleveland. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No17: Yan Gomes: 不突出也不至於失望的2017球季笑臉人的捕手Yan Gomes在2017年的表現並不突出，但他仍然是球隊目前的最佳捕手雖然Mejia的聲勢如日中天，但笑臉人的球迷在2018年大部分時間應該還是會看到Gomes在本壘板後出賽。2017球季，Gomes出賽105場，繳出令人失望的.232/.309/.399成績，但 #DontRunOnYan這個tweets的hashtag依然活躍。自從2014年獲得銀棒獎後，Gomes在進攻端的表現始終不如人意，傷勢或許是個原因，但他糟糕的棒子還是讓球迷在上季季末就開始期待能看到Mejia出賽。不過Gomes的合約狀況讓整件事情變得有趣，Gomes至少在2019球季結束前都還會是笑臉人的一員，且球團擁有他在2020與2021的選擇權，Perez的合約也是最快要到2020才結束，球團同樣擁有2020以後的兩年選擇權。交易一直都是個可行的選項，Gomes的名字或許在今年夏天就會變得熱門，如果Mejia在小聯盟持續進步的話。Mejia毫無疑問是球隊的頭號新秀，他登上大聯盟只是時間早晚的問題而已。不過目前的情況看來，雖然Gomes在2017年的表現不是很理想，但他仍被球隊視為明年捕手的首選，他上季的打擊成績與他生涯平均.244/.291/.418相差不大。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 他生涯最佳的兩個球季是在2013與2014球季，所以目前還很難說他這幾年的表現究竟是真的退化了，還是說只要能讓他在2018年獲得完整的出賽機會，他將會有令人驚豔的表現。還有一種可能性是，他明年的表現將會和他生涯成績差不多，他在捕手位置的守備能力將會是他最重要的武器。 Gomes一直都不算是擁有明星級身手的球員，也不會期待他能成為一位明星球員，但他在本壘板後方令人信賴的守備能力與具爆發性的打擊表現，會讓人期待他能否再度繳出一個成功的球季，如同他在2014年所展現的實力。球迷會希望看到他在2018年能有個成功的球季。但他的表現若仍不如預期，或許他就會失去在克里夫蘭工作的機會。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No.16: Zach McAllister continued his progression in 2017 Cleveland Indians fans saw some solid work out of the bullpen from Zach McAllister in 2017, who continues to progress at a steady rate. Cleveland Indians fans aren’t rushing to bring up Zach McAllister‘s name in any conversation about the team’s bullpen, but the veteran figures to be a key piece once again this season. 2018 will mark McAllister’s fourth full year in the bullpen and may also be his final year with the team. The Indians signed McAllister to a one-year deal to avoid arbitration, but he is a free agent next season. So in addition to Andrew Miller and Cody Allen, the Indians may be without McAllister as well in 2019. But that conversation can wait. Anyway, McAllister returns in 2018 after putting up some decent numbers a season ago. If anything, not bringing up his name often last year was a good thing. He simply went out and did his job. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The right-hander only made 50 appearances in 2017, but logged 62 innings and only allowed 18 earned runs. That 2.61 ERA is the best mark he has had as a full-time reliever. He also struck out 66 batters compared to allowing 21 walks. Once again, these aren’t dominant numbers, but McAllister never had a total collapse or a five-run outing that caused fans a great deal of stress. However, he did allow three earned runs in three of his appearances. The Indians went 2-1 in those games. McAllister’s role has usually seen him come into games to pitch at least a full inning, and that seems to be what he will be doing once again in 2018. Someone has to pitch when a game gets out of hand, while other things can come up such as a starter getting hurt and leaving early or an extra-inning game that goes late into the night. 2018 could be the swan song for one of the best bullpens or baseball, or maybe not, as the team could find a way to minimize the losses. And based on how he has progressed as of late, McAllister could be due for a raise in 2019. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No16: 2017年球季持續進步的Zach McAllister 笑臉人球迷在2017年球季看到Zach在牛棚區穩定的出賽，持續穩定的進步在任何對話中談到笑臉人的牛棚時，只要提到Zach McAllister，所有笑臉人的球迷都不會急著中止這個話題。 2018年的球季，這位老將預計將會繼續擔任牛棚要角之一，這也是他生涯第四個全職牛棚的球季，同時也可能是他在這個球隊最後一年。今年季末為了避免薪資仲裁，笑臉人與 Zach簽下了一年的合約。但明年球季結束後，他將會成為自由球員。因此除了雙A外， 2019的笑臉人牛棚中也可能會少了Zach，不過現在要討論這話題的話還太早。不論如何，上季成功讓一些數據變好看後，2018年Zach會繼續在牛棚區準備。他上季的好表現讓任何話題都無法打斷球迷對他的討論，2018年他需要做的事就是繼續出賽並且好好完成他的工作。這位右投手上季只出賽50場卻吃下了62局，只失18分的自責分，2.61的自責分率是他擔任全職中繼投手以來最出色的成績。他三振了66位打者，同時也保送了21位打者。我必須強調，雖然這不是甚麼了不起的數據，但Zach從未在投手丘上崩盤，未曾發生過單局掉五分之類的糟糕表現讓球迷擔心受怕。不過他也出現過三場比賽失了三分自責分的紀錄，這三場比賽笑臉人贏了兩場輸了一場。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Zach在球隊上的定位通常是只要出賽都會投至少一局的長中繼，2018年他的任務應該不會改變，畢竟球隊總是需要一些投手在比賽失控時登場止血，或是處理某些特殊場面，如先發投手因傷或其他原因提早退場，和那種一路打到深夜的延長賽。 2018年將會是這支球隊擁有耀眼牛棚的最後一年，不過也不一定，端看球隊制服組如何運作，讓離隊的球員降到最少。根據Zach近期不斷進步的表現來看，2019年他應能如預期地獲得一張好合約。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 123.241.181.27 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Indians/M.1517410091.A.8EE.html ※ 編輯: kobec (123.241.181.27), 01/31/2018 22:49:46
