218. TAMPA BAY RAYS Pick Value：165,400 Tyler Young Drafted by: Tampa Bay Rays (No. 218 Overall) Position：2B/3B DOB: 07/17/92 (Age: 20) Height/Weight: 5’10”/175 lbs Bats/Throws: L/R School: Louisville (KY) Ranking：BA#129 ESPN#-- MLB.com#-- ****** From RaysColoredGlasses.com Young was not at third base for his power bat–that’s not his game. But he did prove to be quite a formidable hitter. Using a smooth swing from the left side, Young led the Cardinals in hitting at .340. Young has a short stride at the plate with nice balance to set up a quick, compact swing with excellent bat speed that he uses to hit the ball hard all over the field. Young is about the definition of a pesky hitter, fouling a lot of pitches off and doing whatever he can to get on base, actually getting hit by 18 pitches this season. He doesn’t show much power and needs a little work on pitch recognition, but he’s a very tough out and can drill the ball if you give him anything to hit. And once he gets on base, Young doesn’t have much speed but has outstanding instincts and should be a solid stolen base threat moving forward. Young 的打擊不符合大眾對三壘手的期待，但他曾經證明自己是位有威脅性的打者，在左打區有著流暢的揮棒，Young 的打擊率是領銜全隊的.340。跨步小，在打擊區展現不錯的平衡，簡潔的軌跡配上出色的揮棒速度可以將球打到球場各個角落，是投手很討厭的打者類型，製造一堆界外球，為了上壘他可以做出任何犧牲，本季被觸身的次數高達18次。雖然沒有太多長打能力，球種判斷也需要再加強，但依舊是個很難拿下的出局數，只要投手失投，他就能讓對手付出代價。在壘包上，出色的意識彌補了速度的缺陷，未來也會產生一定的盜壘威脅。 Defensively, Young will be more of a second baseman than a third baseman moving forward, and he shows the actions necessary to be a strong defender there, showing nice hands, good range, and a solid arm. Young did have some throwing issues with the Cardinals this year, but hopefully that should be resolved naturally. But we can’t talk about Young without talking about how incredible it was that he played third base for the Cardinals. Young is a natural second baseman and played the position as a freshman at Louisville, but team need forced him to third base and he played there and did a pretty good job there the last two years. Between his ability to change positions and his ability to get hit by pitches, it’s clear that Young is an excellent team player who does whatever he can to help his team win. Adding that to his talent makes him the type of player you want on your roster. Young is another guy who may end up as more of a utility or super-utility type moving forward, especially given his ability at second and third base, but his pure hitting and all-around game gives him the ability to make a major league impact within a few years. 防守端， Young移往二壘的可能性較高，穩定的臂力，不錯的接球動作，出色的守備範圍，具備成為出色防守者的要件。 Young過去在大學時期有傳球問題，幸好後來自然修正回來。僅管未來在三壘出賽的機率不高，他大學時期在三壘展現的優異守備還是讓人覺得不可思議。 Young在大一就證明了自己是天生的二壘手，之後為了配合球隊需求移防三壘，但他在過去兩年在這個位置的守備工作做得很棒。更換守位和觸身球上壘這兩件事說明他是位很棒的團隊球員，為了獲勝願意做出任何貢獻，結合天分，教練會很樂意這樣的球員出現在名單裡。 Young在未來有機會成為另一位水準之上甚製頂級的工具人，尤其是在二三壘。乾淨的打擊技巧和全方位的能力給了他在接下來幾年挑戰大聯盟的機會。光芒球探長R.J. Harrison評價： "We like his bat. We like his legs. He'll play third base," Rays scouting director R.J. Harrison said. "We'll probably move him around and get him some work at second base. But he's a good athlete and a good college bat." 我們愛他的打擊和腳程，他將會在三壘出賽。我們也許會更換他的守備位置，磨練在二壘的防守，但他有很棒的運動能力和出色的大學打擊表現。 ------ 248. TAMPA BAY RAYS Pick value：152,200 Roel Ramirez Drafted by: Tampa Bay Rays (No. 248 Overall) Position：RHP DOB: 05/26/95 (Age: 21) Height/Weight: 6’1”/205 lbs Bats/Throws: R/R School: United South HS (TX) Ranking：BA#301 ESPN#-- MLB.com#-- ****** Roel Ramirez is athletic and well-built, but at 6'1", 205, he’s not projectable at all. In addition, Ramirez’s arm action is very clean and repeatable, certainly a good thing, but it also rids the Rays of another avenue to potentially get him some more velocity. The Rays are going to try their best to develop him assuming they can get him signed, but for the large part, his stuff right now may be essentially the same as what it is moving forward. The good news for Ramirez and the reason he got selected as high as he did, though, is that his current stuff is still quite impressive. Roel Ramirez 的運動能力不錯，肌肉發達，6'1"，205磅的體型已達成熟，揮臂動作簡潔而且可以不斷重複，但這也表示他可以接受調整的空間不大，球速無法再進一步的提高。我們相信如果 Ramirez順利簽約，光芒會盡可能的栽培他，但他的球質在未來進步的機會不大。好消息是他目前的球質已經足夠讓球探印象深刻，讓球團願意在這個順位選中他。 Ramirez’s fastball ranges in the 88-92 MPH range, and while it’s a relatively straight pitch, he does a good job locating it down in the zone for a high school pitcher. Its best purpose could very well be to set up his changeup, which he does a great job selling with the same arm slot as his fastball before finishing with nice sink. The Rays are well known for their ability to develop changeups in their pitchers, and adding Ramirez to their organization with a solid base for his changeup already will be quite a treat. Ramirez’s breaking ball is where it gets a little more sketchy, but Ramirez has shown some flashes with a big-breaking low-70's curveball while also fiddling around with a low-80's slider. For a high school pitcher, Ramirez has an impressive arsenal, and it should only get better as he works his way up the professinoal ranks. Ramirez的直球在88-92 mph之間，這是他軌跡相對平直的球種，把球控制在好球帶下緣的能力不是一般高中做得到的。直球的作用是用來建立變速球的球威，在產生下沉軌跡前，出手動作跟直球完全一模一樣。光芒以調教投手的變速球聞名，變速球已臻成熟的Ramirez加入農場體系後，這個球種會變得更有威力。Ramirez的變化球還很粗糙，但展現過軌跡銳利，球速落在Low-70s的曲球。Low-80s的滑球偶爾也會加進配球。對於高中投手來說，Ramirez 已經具備出色的武器，隨著職業賽場的磨練，這些武器會更具殺傷力。光芒球探長R.J. Harrison評價： "We like him," Rays scouting director R.J. Harrison said. "He's a sinker-slider-type starting pitching prospect." 我們很喜歡他，他是沉球和滑球結合的先發投手新秀。註：根據Laredo Morning Times，Ramirez會放棄San Jacinto College的獎學金與光芒簽約。他已經準備好前往佛羅里達。 ------ 278. TAMPA BAY RAYS Austin Pruitt Drafted by: Tampa Bay Rays (No. 278 Overall) Position：RHP DOB: 08/31/89 (Age: 23) Height/Weight: 5’11”/180 lbs Bats/Throws: R/R School: Houston (TX) Pruitt was too small to play for a Division I baseball program coming out of high school, so he ended up at Navarro Junior College in Texas. After a freshman year that didn’t attract much attention, suddenly Pruitt burst onto the scene as a sophomore in 2011, leading all junior college pitchers with a 0.81 ERA to find himself an opportunity at Houston. With the Cougars, once again he faded into the background after a season that saw him manage just a 4.25 ERA with only 57 strikeouts in 91 innings (5.6 K/9). But then once again Pruitt did much better the second time around. This season for Houston, Pruitt went 10-5 with a 2.85 ERA and a 92-24 strikeout to walk ratio in 113.2 innings pitched, completing at least 6 innings in each of his starts and tossing a Conference USA-leading 5 complete games, and this time teams couldn ’t ignore him. If the past few years are any indication, Pruitt won’t be too impressive in his pro debut, but once he adapts to his surroundings after that, who knows what kind of heights he can achieve. Pruitt高中畢業時個頭太小，所以無法加入NCAA第一級球隊，最後選擇進入二專，大一時還沒什麼人關注他的表現，但大二整個破繭而出。ERA 0.81領銜所有二專投手，也給了他進入休士頓大學的機會。在大學的第一年並不理想，ERA 4.25，91局只有57次三振，但到了第二年，Pruitt以2.85的ERA，92/24的三振保送比，為球隊貢獻 113.2局，10勝5敗，包含全美聯賽最多的5場完投，每場至少都投滿6局，這個成績讓球探們無法忽略他（當年 Gregg Olson Award年度最佳進步獎）。過去幾年球探並不看好Pruitt在職業賽場的表現，但隨著他漸漸適應大學賽場的強度，球探開始肯定他的球技達到一定的高度。 Pruitt is never going to be an overpowering pitcher, throwing in the high-80' s with his fastball with the occasional 90. But what he did in his senior season was drastically improve his command, throwing a ton of strikes and consistently locating his fastball down in the zone to force weak contact, especially on the ground. Pruitt doesn’t get much of a downward angle on his pitches, but it didn’t matter because he was just painting the bottom of the zone. Then Pruitt adds in his second offering, a curveball that has been effective for him since his high school days. Pruitt has honed it into a true 12-to-6 downer in the mid-70's with huge late break just as it approaches the hitter, and he can use it both as a chase pitch and for called strikes at the bottom of the strike zone. Pruitt also mixes in the occasional changeup, something you know the Rays will look to further refine. Pruitt makes all his pitches play up from a deceptive delivery that he does an excellent job repeating, just another way he seems to outperform expectations time after time. Pruitt從不是倚賴球威壓制打者的投手，直球落在80 mph，偶爾可達90 mph。但他在大四球季改善了他的控球，取得大量的好球數，可以穩定的攻擊好球帶下緣產生軟弱無力的出棒。Pruitt的下沉角度不夠銳利，但只要他能夠把球投進好球帶下緣，這就不會是大問題。第二球種是他從高中時期就能有效取得出局數的曲球，70 mph中段，12點往 6點鐘方向的軌跡直到貼近打者時才會產生變化，可以用來引誘打者出磅或在好球帶下緣取得好球數。偶爾會把變速球加入配球中，可以肯定的是進入光芒農場後這個球種會更進化。Pruitt把這些球種用迷惑的放球點包裝起來，而且可以不斷重複穩定的投球動作，這是他能夠一次又一次交出超乎預期成績的關鍵之一。光芒球探長R.J. Harrison評價： "Above-average curveball," Rays scouting director R.J. Harrison said. "The curveball's an out pitch." 水準之上的曲球是對決球。註：今年已經是大五生的Pruitt簽約問題不大，去年同樣是大五的Sean Bierman簽約金只有5K，為光芒省下不少預算，省錢投資在前面的簽位才是光芒在這個順位選擇Pruitt的主因。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.118.6.244
