[情報] 2014 BA十大新秀 #02 A.J. Cole
02. A.J. Cole, rhp
Born: Jan. 5, 1992.
B-T: R-R.
Ht.: 6-4.
Wt.: 180.
Drafted: HS—Oviedo, Fla., 2010 (4th round).
Signed by: Paul Tinnell.
Background: The Nationals signed Cole for a fourth-round-record $2 million
bonus in 2010, then traded him to Oakland in the Gio Gonzalez deal after the
2011 season. He spent one year with the Athletics, struggling in high Class A
but dominating back in low A, then returned to the Nationals in the March
2013 Michael Morse deal. Cole’s stock soared after he earned a late-July
promotion to Double-A Harrisburg and made seven strong starts, lasting at
least six full innings in each of them.
背景：
2010年國民用破紀錄的第四輪簽約金2M簽下Cole，2011年季後把他交
易到奧克蘭換Gio Gonzalez。他在運動家系統待了一年，雖在A+投得
搖搖擺擺但降回A後又大殺四方。2013年三月時因Michael Morse交易
回到國民，七月底升上2A Harrisburg後振翅高飛，七次先發不但成
績漂亮而且每場都至少投滿六局。
Scouting Report: Cole pitches predominantly off his explosive fastball, which
sits at 94-95 mph and regularly touches 97. His fastball command is solid,
but it remains better to his arm side than his glove side. His second pitch
is a fringe-average changeup that flashes plus when he maintains his arm
speed. The biggest knock on Cole is his lack of a wipeout breaking ball, but
he worked hard to tighten it up and add some power to it this year. Sometimes
it looks like a short curveball, other times he gets on the side of it and
it’s more of a slider. The shape and depth of the pitch are inconsistent,
and so is the velocity, which ranges from 75-82 mph.
球探報告：
Cole的主力武器是 94-95且經常上飆97的火球，他的速球控得很棒，
但右打者內角進壘點還是比左打者內角要好。第二球種是平均邊緣的
變速球，當他能保持揮臂速度時則能發揮得更優異。對於Cole最重要
的是他必殺變化球還不夠純熟，不過他今年相當努力練習，也多加快
了些這顆球種的速度。有時像小曲，其它時間用起來更像是滑球。變
化的銳利度與深度並不穩定，速度也是，從75-82都有。
The Future: Cole needs to refine his offspeed stuff, but he should get a shot
in Triple-A in 2014. He could get a big league callup by season’s end and
projects as a mid-rotation starter.
未來性：
Cole得加強他的慢速變化球，但他2014年應有機會上到3A，也可能於
季末升到大聯盟。預計能成為輪值三號。
