5. Shooter Hunt | Starter | DOB: 8/86 | Throws: Right | Draft: 2008-1 YEAR LV G GS ERA IP H HR SO BB 2008 RK 4 4 0.47 19.0 4 0 34 6 A- 7 7 5.46 31.1 26 2 34 27 Rarely do the Twins target young pitchers with sub par control, but Shooter Hunt's electric stuff was too much to pass up with the 31st overall pick in June's draft. Ranked by Baseball America as the draft's fourth-best pitching prospect, he had a 2.65 ERA, .204 opponent's average, and 230 strikeouts in 200.1 innings at Tulane University and whiffed 68 in 50.1 frames while holding opponents to a .172 mark in his pro debut. However, Hunt struggled to throw strikes once he moved from rookie-ball to Single-A. Twins通常喜歡控球型的投手,但Hunt的能力實在好到難以讓人忽視他被BA排為當年第四的投手新秀但是,他上到了low-A後好像忘了怎麼投好球 After walking 3.8 batters per nine innings at Tulane he handed out 27 free passes over 31.1 innings at Beloit, which led to a bloated 5.46 ERA despite opponents hitting .230 with a .328 slugging percentage. Learning to harness his raw stuff will be the biggest challenge for Hunt, but if the Twins can get him to fit into their strike-throwing mold he has legitimate No. 1 starter potential with a fastball that regularly clocks in at 92-95 miles per hour and a big-breaking curveball. Oh, and a great name. 31.1IP裡投出27個BB 控球是他目前最重要的課題如果Twins的教練可以幫助Hunt把控球練好有著mid-90s的速球,大幅度曲球的他絕對具有成為球隊王牌的潛力 For an organization that has long been flush with command/control pitchers with middle-of-the-rotation upside Hunt sticks out very much like Matt Garza once did, so hopefully the Twins can avoid becoming similarly frustrated if he's equally slow to change his stripes. Hunt will likely begin this season back at Single-A, but has the potential to move quickly if he can cut the walks and could be a bullpen option by 2010 if there's no room for him yet in the rotation. 在總是充斥著控球型中後段輪值的雙城系統, Hunt是非常不同的,就像之前的Garza 希望Twins能對他多點耐心本季他將還是從low-A出發但如果他能減少BB的量,應該可以快速的升級甚至在2010就能看到他在牛棚或是輪值出現 4. Angel Morales | Center Field | DOB: 11/89 | Bats: Right | Draft: 2007-3 YEAR LV PA AVG OBP SLG HR XBH BB SO 2007 RK- 143 .256 .357 .405 2 11 12 44 2008 RK 218 .301 .413 .623 15 28 26 72 Ben Revere got most of the attention by flirting with .400 for much of the year, but on a per-game basis Angel Morales was actually the Twins' best minor-league hitter last season. Despite being 18 months younger than Revere and six months younger than 2008 first-round pick Aaron Hicks, Morales batted .301/.413/.623 in 54 games at short-season Elizabethton, leading the rookie-level Appalachian League in homers and slugging percentage. Morales應該才是去年雙城小聯盟最好的打者他比Revere小了一歲半,也比Hicks小了半歲去年在Elizabethton打出.301/.413/.623的驚人成績 Morales' numbers are plenty great on their own, but become even better after accounting for the fact that the Appalachian League as a whole hit .262/.331/.387. Slugging .623 in an environment where the average slugging percentage was a measly .387 is equivalent to slugging .670 in an environment with MLB-level offense. Morales' breakout consists of just 218 plate appearances, so there are sample-size issues at play, but an 18-year-old center fielder with an adjusted line of .303/.415/.670 is pretty sick. Morales的數據在弱打的Appalachian聯盟實在太突出不過他的樣本數有點少但總之一個18歲的CF能打出.303/.415/.670(調整後)的成績,實在是太變態了 Morales has whiffed 116 times in just 92 pro games and striking out in 32 percent of your trips to the plate at rookie-ball is a major red flag, but the 2007 third-round pick has shown a unique combination of power, speed, and plate discipline for someone who will be a teenager for the entire 2009 season. He's a very long way from the big leagues, but few Twins prospects can match Morales in terms of raw potential and he'd get a lot more attention if not for Hicks and Revere being in the same system. Morales最大的問題在於被三振太多但他所展現出的各項能力都很值得被期待他離major還非常遠如果不是跟Hicks還有Revere在同一個系統中,他會得到更多的注意 3. Wilson Ramos | Catcher | DOB: 8/87 | Bats: Right | Sign: Venezuela YEAR LV PA AVG OBP SLG HR XBH BB SO 2006 RK 172 .286 .339 .435 3 16 12 14 2007 A- 316 .291 .345 .438 8 26 19 61 2008 A+ 500 .288 .346 .434 13 38 37 103 Signed out of Venezuela as a 16-year-old in 2004, Wilson Ramos debuted at rookie-ball in 2006, spent 2007 at low Single-A, and played last season at high Single-A, posting eerily similar offensive numbers at each stop. While hitting .290/.345/.435 in three straight seasons doesn't look all that spectacular at first glance, that type of production is outstanding when it comes from a good defensive catcher playing against significantly older competition in pitcher-friendly environments. Ramos在不同階層,連續三季都繳出幾乎一模一樣的打擊成績 .290/.345/.435乍看並不出色但若考慮到這是一個防守型的捕手,且在該層級中相對年輕則是非常優秀的表現了 He played last season as a 20-year-old at high Single-A, ranking 14th in the Florida State League in OPS. The league's two best OPS totals belonged to a 24-year-old and a 27-year-old, the average age of the 13 guys ahead of Ramos was 23, and only two other catchers were in the top 40. Catching is so physically demanding and driven by defense that major-league backstops were five percent below the MLB average offensively in 2008. For his career Ramos has been 13 percent above average. 他去年OPS在Florida聯盟中排名14 他前面13名選手的平均年齡為23歲,而他只有20歲排名前40的選手中,總共只有3個捕手此外,大聯盟捕手的進攻比全聯盟的平均值低5% 但Ramos則比平均高了13% He's also no slouch defensively, earning solid reviews for his glovework behind the plate and gunning down 42 percent of steal attempts over the past two years. Ramos strikes out quite a bit and like most players his age has sub par plate discipline, but he's a .288 career hitter who looks capable of 20-plus homers as he matures and is far from disastrous in terms of strike-zone control. Even holding his own as a 21-year-old at Double-A would solidify Ramos as one of baseball's top catching prospects. 他在本壘的表現也相幫不錯,所以敢嘗試盜他壘的人比平均值少42% 他的確被三振很多,但是這對這麼年輕的球員來說根本不稀罕選球也沒到"噩夢"的程度況且他是個.288/BA的球員,且上看20轟的捕手只要維持,上到2A也會是頂尖的捕手新秀之一 2. Ben Revere | Center Field | DOB: 5/88 | Bats: Left | Draft: 2007-1 YEAR LV PA AVG OBP SLG HR XBH BB SO 2007 RK 216 .325 .388 .461 0 16 13 20 2008 A- 374 .379 .433 .497 1 28 27 31 Roundly criticized for taking Revere out of a Kentucky high school with the 28th overall pick in the 2007 draft because most projections pegged him as a third-round talent, the Twins are looking pretty smart so far after the diminutive center fielder led all of minor-league baseball in batting average last year at low Single-A. Revere has hit .360 with 65 steals through 133 pro games, posting a .900 OPS that rates 30 percent above average for his leagues despite a total of one homer in 590 plate appearances. Revere在2007年選秀總排名28,的確是招來了一些質疑但現在看起來,Twins似乎是很有眼光的到目前為止他的BA是.360 65次盜壘成功 OPS為.900 全壘打只有一支 Revere is 5-foot-9 on a good day and lack of power potential is why he was considered an over-draft in the first round, but he's shown solid gap power with 23 doubles and 20 triples in 531 at-bats. In fact, his .118 Isolated Power last year was exactly average for the Midwest League. Revere's value is always going to come from getting on base and using his speed to swipe bags and track down fly balls, but developing some semblance of power is crucial because he's not going to hit .360 forever. Revere身材條件不夠好,又缺乏power,所以被認為順位太前面但他的長打數卻還不錯多,IsoP也在Midwest聯盟平均值 Revere的速度是他最大的本錢,還有上壘的能力對他來說還是得展現出一些power 因為他不可能一直都打出.360的成績 If he were to hit .300 in the majors with the type of power and plate discipline that he's shown thus far Revere would be at .300/.350/.420, which along with a weak throwing arm would give him upside that resembles Juan Pierre or Lance Johnson. If his power improves enough for Revere to be a 10-homer threat then his ceiling is more along the lines of Johnny Damon or Kenny Lofton. He's been great thus far, but if you're picking nits the components of his performance aren't quite as encouraging long term. 設想,如果他持續沒有展現出power 在major繳出.300/.350/.420 這不過頂多是另一個腿哥但如果能有10轟左右的實力則可能是Johnny Damon或Kenny Lofton般的球員 1. Aaron Hicks | Center Field | DOB: 10/89 | Bats: Switch | Draft: 2008-1 YEAR LV PA AVG OBP SLG HR XBH BB SO 2008 RK 204 .318 .409 .491 4 18 28 32 Hicks was a two-way star in high school and most teams liked him more as a pitcher, but prior to the draft he made it clear that he wanted to be a hitter and the Twins selected him as a center fielder with the 14th overall pick. Called "the finest prep outfielder/pitcher prospect in the greater Los Angeles area since Daryl Strawberry in the early 1980s" by Baseball America, Hicks lived up to the hype in his debut by hitting .318/.409/.491 with a dozen steals over 45 games in the rookie-level Gulf Coast League. Hicks是個投打兼修的明星球員很多球隊希望他繼續投球,但他則說自己想當打者 BA認為他是Daryl Strawberry以後,大洛杉磯地區最好的投打雙棲球員 Because the GCL is an incredibly pitcher-friendly environment those raw stats actually underrate Hicks' performance, which was the equivalent of hitting .332/.411/.574 in a league with MLB-level scoring. His strong 32-to-28 strikeout-to-walk ratio is also very encouraging, because high-school draftees typically lack patience and drawing walks isn't something the Twins are known for stressing. Hopefully he can follow the Joe Mauer path by bringing a disciplined approach at the plate with him to the organization. GCL是個投手友好的聯盟所以Hicks的成績在做些修正後會更漂亮更可喜的是他的選球很好,亮眼的三振保送比32-28 希望他可以像貓兒一樣把選球眼帶上major Hicks was considered one of the draft's elite athletes and it would have been tough for his pro debut to go much better, as he displayed every tool at the age of 18. Dominating rookie-ball hardly guarantees big-league success, but Hicks' combination of physical ability and baseball skills is extremely rare for someone so young and long-term ceilings don't climb much higher than a switch-hitting center fielder with a mid-90s fastball, track speed, plate discipline, and an impact bat. Hicks有優秀的運動細胞, 進入職業後,第一個球季的表現已經很好了雖然屠殺新人聯盟不代表未來會成功但他這麼年輕就展現出各種棒球能力集所有才華於一身,強肩,速度,選球,打擊,且又是左右開弓你實在不得不對他抱有極高的期待 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.57.234
