[農場] Prospect of the Day: Desmond Jenning …
原文:http://ppt.cc/-A7@
Tampa Bay Rays fans and many fantasy owners have been anxiously awaiting the
arrival of outfield prospect Desmond Jennings. Now that he's finally in the
majors, what can we expect?
光芒的球迷還有fantasy的玩家們引領期盼的一天總算來到:新一代草上飛傳人Desmond
Jennings總算上到大聯盟了,那我們還有什麼可以期待的呢?
The Rays drafted Desmond Jennings in the 10th round in 2006, from Itawamba
Community College in Mississippi. He stole 32 bases in his pro debut, hitting
.277/.360/.390 for Princeton in the Appalachian League, then followed that up
with a sharp .315/.401/.465 mark with 45 steals in 99 games for Columbus in the
Sally League in '07. He was limited to just 24 games for Vero Beach in 2008 by
back and shoulder injuries, but came back healthy in 2009 and hit .316/.395/
.486 for Double-A Montgomery (100 games) and .325/.419/.491 for Triple-A Durham
(32 games), combining to draw 67 walks and steal 52 bases. He hit .278/.362/
.393 with 37 steals for Durham last year, but went just 4-for-21 (.190) in 17
games for the Rays.
This year he was hitting .275/.374/.456 with 12 homers, 45 walks, and 17 steals
in 18 attempts for Durham, with 338 at-bats. In his minor league career,
Jennings is a .294/.382/.443 hitter with 188 steals and 240 walks in 2228 plate
appearances, including a .283/.375/.431 mark with 69 steals, 111 walks, and 18
homers in 992 Triple-A plate appearances.
Jennings是第十輪被光芒從Itawamba社區大學選出來的。他的'07年職業生涯初次亮相那季
就偷了32個壘包,且在Princeton打出了.277/.360/.390的三圍,接著在Columbus99場比賽
中,他打出了驚人的.315/.401/.465的三圍而且有45次盜壘。他在'08年由於他的背傷還有
肩膀傷只打了24場比賽,但'09年就回復健康而且在2A打了.316/.395/.486的成績(100場
比賽)以及在3A也有.325/.419/.491的表現(32場比賽),而且這兩個聯盟加起來,他總
共選了67次保送而且有52次盜壘。接著他去年在Durham打出.278/.362/.393的成績,不過
我們都知道去年他大聯盟成績不甚理想(4-21,.190的打擊率)。
今年他在3A依舊表現亮眼,有.275/.374/.456的三圍加上12支全壘打,45次保送,而且在
18次的嘗試盜壘中成功了17次(CC的複製人?)。在Jennings的小聯盟職業生涯中,他繳
出了.294/.382/.443的成績,而且有著188次的盜壘以及240次的保送在2228的打席中,其
中包含了他在3A的992個打席中他繳出了.283/.375/.431的三圍配上69次盜壘,111次保送
,跟18支全壘打。
Jennings is a 24-year-old right-handed hitter and thrower, listed at 6-2, 200
pounds. His power output can be sporadic, and his production has been harmed
at times by nagging injuries; he's had issues with his shoulder, back, and knees
. But when healthy, as he's been this year, he has good pop.
His best attribute is speed; he's at least a 70 runner on the 20-80 scale, but
unlike many speedsters, he doesn't just rely on his raw ability: he is a very
skilled baserunner and is an excellent percentage stealer. In Triple-A he's
stolen 69 bases in 76 attempts. He has a good feel for the strike zone and
draws walks, enhancing his value at the top of a lineup. His dynamism is also
a huge asset in the outfield. His arm isn't special, but he has excellent range
in center field and makes few mistakes.
The Rays have been cautious with Jennings and advanced him slowly through the
system. He has 330 games to his credit in Double-A and Triple-A, and has
learned all he can learn in the minors. The time is now for Desmond Jennings,
and his development makes a B.J. Upton trade all the more likely. His
combination of speed, on-base ability, moderate power, and strong defense
gives the rookie a very broad base of tools and skills.
Jennings是個右撇子,不管投還是打。他的長打能力可能哪天會靈光乍現,而且他的產值
會因為他的病痛史而稍微降低:他有過肩痛,背痛還有膝蓋傷痛的問題(慘了是個痛痛人
)。不過當他健康的時候,他就很有破壞性。
他最大的貢獻是速度,他大概是個有高過平均素質相當多的跑者(編譯:20-80 scale是
棒球用來評斷運動員的一種量表,通常是5分為一個量值,如55,60,65來表示,通常50
是表示平均值,在這邊球探報告給予70已經是相當於近滿分的素質),不過他並不像大部
分的輕功選手,他不只是靠他的天份,更大部分是他靠著他的技巧而且讓他成為一個有相
當棒的成功率的盜壘者。在3A他在76次嘗試盜壘中成功了69次。他有著相當好的選球眼所
以獲得不少保送,這增加了他能打第一棒的價值。他的活力更是個讓他在外野手這部份的
一個重要的資產。他不是個強肩,但他有非常好的守備範圍而且很少失誤。
光芒很小心翼翼的保護著Jennings而且讓他升級升的相當緩慢。他在2A還有3A打了330場比
賽,而且累積了不少經驗。現在是Desmond Jennings的時代(新DJ!不是Dan Johnson,是
Desmond Jennings!),而且他的成長讓B.J.交易案越來越可能成真。他的速度,好的
上壘率,普普的長打能力以及強大的防守能力讓這菜鳥有著無限的可能性。
以上是今天剛出爐的Jennings文章,有錯請指正謝謝。
