原文網址:http://www.minorleagueball.com/ 簡短翻譯一下 XD Not a Rookie: Rick Vanden Hurk By John Sickels Posted on Wed Feb 20, 2008 at 01:57:49 PM CDT Not a Rookie: Rick Vanden Hurk Rick Vanden Hurk was signed by the Marlins out of the Netherlands in 2002. He made his North American debut in '03, posting a 5.35 ERA in 39 innings for the Gulf Coast League Marlins, with a 30/20 K/BB. At this point he was a basically a raw thrower, showing good arm strength but needing better command. He wasn't on the radar for the book at that point, being a basic Grade C rookie ball arm who might or might not develop. 荷蘭仔Rick Vanden Hurk在02年被馬大魚簽下,03年在GCL初登板,但這年他投的成績不太好,只是一個相當普通的grade C 新秀. Moved up to Jupiter in the Florida State League in 2004, he posted a 3.26 ERA and a 43/31 K/BB in 58 innings. Command was still a major issue, but that was quite a jump in competition compared to '03 and he held up well. I should have put him in the book, probably with something like a Grade C+, but I didn't do so. Then Vanden Hurk made six starts in 2005 but blew out his elbow and had Tommy John surgery. All bets were off at that point, and you'd have to reduce his rating to Grade C given the injury uncertainty. 2004年荷蘭仔到了1A,這年他的控球還是有問題,不過ERA降了許多,這個時期他應該有C+的評價,但他05年動了TJ,所以在考慮傷病因素後,他的grading還是停在C. '06 was a rehab year. He made five starts in the Gulf Coast League, then three more at Jupiter, combining for a 1.80 ERA with a 41/14 K/BB in 25 innings. Control was still a problem but the spike in K/IP was evident, and he showed no diminution of stuff from the surgery. He also pitched great in the Hawaiian Winter League. I finally put him in the book with a Grade C+ rating, noting his high upside but projecting that he would be best off in the bullpen due to his erratic secondary pitches. 06年他從TJ復原,並屠殺新人聯盟跟1A,他的K/9很高,但仍有控球問題,TJ對他的stuff沒有影響,所以他的評價升到C+,但因為缺乏有效的第二球種,所以在書中我認為他最終會往牛棚發展. The Marlins didn't listen to that, of course. He made four starts in the majors in April, with a 12.75 ERA. He made three starts in June and three starts in July, then entered the rotation for most of August and early September. In between all that he made 11 starts in the minors and pitched well, showing much improved command compared to past seasons, with a 75/25 K/BB in 66 innings between Double-A and Triple-A.. Overall in the majors, he made 17 starts and was crushed, with a 6.83 ERA and a 84/48 K/BB in 82 innings, 94 hits allowed and 15 homers. 馬大魚顯然不打算這樣做.07年他被rush上來大聯盟的層級,然後爆炸了.不過當他被下放 3A跟2A的時候他控球明顯改善,66局中的K/BB:75/25.這年他在MLB共投了82局,ERA 6.83, K/BB=84/48. What did they expect? Given his lack of experience at the higher levels, his struggles were completely predictable. Statistically I like the K/IP ratio, but his control is still weak and he gives up a lot of home runs. His arm strength and upside are obvious, but given the injury rehab and command issues, the decision to give him so much major league time last year does not strike me as a particularly wise player development decision, granted more goes into roster decisions than just what is good for one particular player. 我認為馬大魚rush到他了,他去年在大聯盟呆太久,他面對高階打者的經驗太少了,所以他才會核暴的如此慘,雖然他的K/BB還不賴,但他被打太多長打了. Vanden Hurk is still just 22. If I were the Marlins, I would send him to Triple-A to begin 2008 and leave him there as long as possible. He has a bright future as long as his confidence remains intact, but I think he needs more time to consolidate his skills. He could develop in any number of directions....he could be a really good starter, or could settle into a relief role, or he could be mediocre, or he could stall out in Triple-A and never really improve. I see no particular reason to favor one scenario over another right now. 荷蘭仔他只有22歲,如果我能決定的話今年開季我會讓他呆在3A,如果去年被核爆的經驗沒有擊垮他的信心,那他仍會有光明的未來,他會是個很好的先發,但是他還沒準備好. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 123.195.1.14 ※ 編輯: supin 來自: 123.195.1.14 (02/28 23:34)
