即使Girardi再怎麼愛用Cabrera, 看下面數字也應該知道, 天熱了牛奶真的是酸了。 2009 BA OBP SLG OPS April .327 .400 .571 .971 May .321 .348 .429 .777 June .225 .312 .375 .687 July .220 .278 .320 .598 他已經打了超過1900個PA，但每年都最多只有兩個月可以打出平均水準，尤其是IsoD更是越打越差，數字是逐月像溜滑梯。也難怪被許多blogger酸。 waswatching.com: “Don’t Drink The Leche, It’s Spoiled!” noMaas: "Are the Yankees showcasing Melky?": 意思是現在洋基是準備讓Melky多上場讓想要他的球隊看看，準備將他送走。但越打越差恐怕是反效果。先前的 "Our Melky Cabrera theory" 便認為洋基已經有5個外野手了，還送 Ramiro Pena下去3A加練CF，原因便是7月31日前準備將Melky送走，到時候Pena 可以當Gardner的替補。還有riveraveblues.com的這篇，如果洋基不想在7月大限前交易回來更好的CF，實在沒有必要浪費這麼多時間在Melky這種幾乎練不出來的年輕人，趕快讓Gardner上來吧。明星賽後Gardner才只有4個打數，幾乎都上來守備而已。 Whither Melky, again By Benjamin Kabak www.riveraveblues.com While the Yankees downed the Orioles last night to move into sole possession of first place, Melky Cabrera did not have a night to remember. He went 0 for 4 and saw his triple slash numbers decline to .274/.333/.418. For the first time all season, Melky’s OPS+ has dipped below 100. He is now a below-average hitter for the Yanks. Earlier in the year, things were looking up for the Melk Man. He was hitting .327/.400/.571 through the end of April and followed that up with a .321/.348/.429. The power drop was precipitous, and the decline in his IsoD, the difference between his batting average and on-base percentage, was notable. Yet, through the end of May, he was still hitting .323/.368/.481, and we all would have taken it. Last night’s 0-fer caps what has been a miserable two months for Melky. Since the start of June, he is just 29 for 130, good for a .223 batting average, and has a .297 on-base percentage. He is slugging just .353 in that stretch, and his OPS has declined to .751, a drop of over .200 points since the end of April. We can’t really be surprised by Melky’s post-spring slump. In 2008, he had a stellar April, hitting .299/.370/.494 and then put up a triple slash line of .235/.281/.300 through the end of the season. It’s little consolation that his 2009 swoon is a slight improvement over his 2008 nose dive. He’s still producing at a level that should get him benched. At this point, I don’t know what to do with Melky Cabrera. We’ve long been accused of being Melky haters, and to a certain extent, we are. But we don’t hate Melky due to any sort of personal grudge. We hate him because Joe Girardi insists on playing him in spite of the numbers. Melky Cabrera has over 1900 plate appearances at the Big League level and has never managed to be an above-average hitter for more than two months at a time. While his fielding is good, it can’t overcome his inability to get on base or hit for average. He is basically a fourth outfielder in sheep’s clothing. The Yankees probably won’t look to improve upon center field at the trade deadline. They would end up spending far too many prospects on a player who just won’t be that good. But at the same time, they can’t keep sending Melky Cabrera out there day in and day out. It’s time for Brett Gardner to be the de facto center fielder. When or if he shows he can’t handle it, the Yanks can begin to think about ways to fill that hole, but the reign of Melky and his .297 on-base percentage since June 1 needs to end. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.225.150.229 ※ 編輯: leddy 來自: 61.225.150.229 (07/22 23:28)
