[Note] POLL: Do You Want Russell Branyan?
Last Saturday, the Arizona Diamondbacks released first base slugger and
35-year-old Russell Branyan. This past off-season, there were not a few of us
among the DRB community who hoped the Rays would bring back the lefty from
past(Branyan hit 12 homers for the Devil Rays in 2006).
上星期六響尾蛇釋出現年35歲的砲手 Russell Branyan,休季期間我們曾在DRB上討論
希望球團簽下哪位左打球員(Branyan 在2006年(魔鬼魚時期)擊出12發HR)
Anyway, the Rays did not get Branyan, but who cares? We got Manny Ramirez!
Well, now that Manny is prepping for the Latin leagues and Branyan is floating
around the free agent world again, do the Rays go for him now?
不管怎樣,球隊沒得到 Branyan,但誰在意呢?我們簽下 Manny Ramirez 啦! 好吧
,現在 Manny 在拉丁聯盟且 Branyan 在 FA,球團現在要爭取他嗎?
Do not be an uninformed voter! Follow the jump for the pros and cons of
Branyan.
不要做個無知的投票者!跟著老手們來了解 Branyan 的優缺點。
R.J. Anderson on The Process Report breaks down Branyan just about as well
as anyone, so let's take from that.
R.J. Anderson 在他的網站分析 Branyan,讓我們來看看。
Branyan Strengths 優勢
Power:
The Rays have not had enough power at first base this year. Even Kotchman's
biggest fans will admit the Rays have not had much power in the top bag. The
problem is Branyan has not shown his characteristic pop this year.
力量:
球隊今年1B打者缺乏長程火力。即使 Kotchm 最死忠球迷也承認無法帶來更多長打
這個問題今年在 Branyan 身上是看不到(長打下滑)。
Anderson: So far, Branyan hadn't shown that same pop. Branyan only has one
home run this season and his ISO is .129—an uncomforting fact: the sum of
Dan Johnson's and Casey Kotchman's ISO is .121 (only James Loney, at .043,
is a first baseman with a lower ISO than the Rays pair an more than 50 plate
appearances this season).
Anderson: 到目前為止 Branyan 沒辦法展現以往的Power。他在本季僅僅只有1發HR且
ISO(純長打指數)為相當差的.129:Dan Johnson 和 Casey Kotchman 的ISO總和為.121
(James Loney 只有.043---在本季超過50的打席的1B當中比光芒還低)
Contract: 合約
Because of the nature of his release, Branyan has his money. The Rays could
get him cheap, possibly a minor league contract.
因為被釋出,球團可以很便宜簽下他(也許是Minor約)。
Anderson:
The transaction cost involved is simple. Branyan would make the prorated
league minimum and the Rays would have to create a 25-and 40-man roster spot
(Justin Ruggiano would appear to be the most likely to go).
這筆交易很簡單。球隊必須按照25人和40人名單規則移出1個位置分給Branyan(目前40
人名單已滿)---Justin Ruggiano 很可能會被剔除在40人名單之外。
Branyan Weakness 劣勢
Cold as Ice: 處於低潮狀態
He's had only 69 plate appearances this year (which aught to make him a DRB
favorite), but a slew of those (15+) have come as a pinch hitter (where batters
tend to perform much worse). If the Rays sign Branyan to play first base
immediately, they will be taking a gamble in the short term. Anderson:
今年目前為止只有69個打席(沒有一項指數可以讓 DRB 去喜歡他),但可以擔任代打
(15打數做測試)---打者往往只會表現更糟。假使球團很快的簽下 Branyan,像是做
一個短期賭博。
Anderson: Branyan compiled 69 plate appearances and registered a .210/.290/
.339 slash line.
Anderson: Branyan 69個打席中繳出 .210/.290/.339 的三圍成績。
Age and Injuries:
Branyan has struggled a LOT with injuries. Also, power sluggers tend to lose
their pop at Branyan's age. This may be the first poor season of many to follow
in the evening of his career. It's unlikely he's collapsed this far, but given
Kotchman's strong defense, he may not be able to outplay Kotch if his oomph
disappears.
Branyan 在傷病中掙扎,Branyan 的力量會因為年紀而逐漸退化。這也許是其在生涯
後期第1個低迷球季。想要從低潮中回復不太可能,但有鑑於 Kotchman 的優良防守,
倘若Branyan優勢消失(力量)可能無法取代 Kotchman。
Anderson:
Without Branyan's power, his value is non-existent. As you would imagine, a
guy who fans in nearly 30 percent of his plate appearances isn't going to hold
a worthwhile batting average, and while he walks at a dandy rate (over 11
percent), it's not enough to justify his playing time if his stroke is sapped
of its power.
不提 Branyan 的長打,他的價值也不存在了。在你的印象中,這個男人其生涯打席中有
3成都吞三振不能維持打擊率,而且其被保送率低於百分之11,假如他的擊球力量減弱
無法為其上場時間做出保證。
