Link：http://ppt.cc/tMUq Shortstop We wrap up the position player recaps with one of the more interesting positions in the organization. The Rays have struggled developing their own long-term solution at the position, but maybe they can break that trend with one of the players listed here. In addition to the four top 30 prospects, there are a number of under the radar players that could be on the rise. 游擊手是光芒農場最有趣的守位之一，接下來我們將揭開它的神祕面紗。光芒一直在尋求游擊區的長期解答，也許名單裡其中一位球員可以滿足他們的期望。除了進入Top 30的四位新秀外，還有許多在名單外的球員也蓄勢待發。 Teams generally value the defense tool here more than the others. Part of the Rays' remarkable franchise turnaround can be attributed to their emphasis on defense, particularly at shortstop. Arm strength is important as well on the left side of the infield, and anything they get at the plate is a bonus. 大多數球隊對這個守位的守備要求很高。特別是對光芒這種強調防守的球隊來說，游擊手更是整個內野的靈魂。臂力對於防守左半邊內野的野手來說很重要，如果又有其他上壘技巧的話那就是額外的收穫了。 4. Hak-Ju Lee (22 Y.O. at Triple-A) 57 PA, .422/.536/.600, 19.3 BB%, 15.8 K%, 5 XBH, 6 SB (75%) Lee was off to a great start in 2013 before a devastating knee injury ended his season in April. Obviously all caveats of a small sample size apply, but it appeared he was ready to move beyond his mostly disappointing 2012 with Montgomery. I don't know if it's possible to find something he wasn't doing at a career best, but again, what happens in 57 plate appearances doesn't necessarily happen over the next 570. A .514 BABIP is probably difficult to sustain. 四月嚴重膝傷之前，Lee在'13年有個很不錯的開局。雖然是小樣本，但顯然他已經掙脫去年在AA的低潮。我不確定他是不是在打擊方式上是不是做了改變，但並沒辦法從57個打數的成績去推估接下來的570個。.514的BABIP也顯示這個成績很難維持。 Thanks to Yunel Escobar's solid play, Lee's injury didn't drastically affect the team's 2014 plans. The Rays are "really encouraged" by his rehab, and the 23 year old will return to Durham next year and prove he can hit there over the course of an entire season. He'll have to prove his injury didn't significantly hurt his best tools, his defense and speed. 幸好Yunel Escobar在大聯盟交出不錯的表現，Lee的傷勢並不會嚴重影響光芒明年的佈局。光芒對他的康復情形也很樂觀。將滿23歲的Lee明年將會從AAA出發，並讓大家知道自己有實力站穩這個層級。他必須證明自己的傷勢對打擊、防守和速度不會造成嚴重的影響。 ------ 9. Jake Hager (20 Y.O. at Class A-Advanced) 498 PA, .258/.318/.305, 7.6 BB%, 16.3 K%, 12 SB (60%) After completing a strong second half with Bowling Green in 2012, Hager didn't have the same success. His season was a tale of two halves; in the first, he posted a .697 OPS, essentially the league average. In June, he suffered a shoulder injury, and he was never the same player when he came back. After his two week stint on the DL, his OPS was just .551. 去年在A以強勢的下半季成績收尾的Hager，今年並沒有交出同樣的表現。整季可以分成兩個部分，上半季OPS .697剛好是聯盟平均，但六月肩傷後就回不到原來的水平。從傷兵名單歸隊後OPS只有.551。 Ideally for the Rays, the injury is the reason for the poor performance over the last two months of the season. The most glaring difference between 2012 and 2013 for Hager was his modest pop. His ISO with Bowling Green was .131, compared to just .047 with Charlotte. He hit no home runs, but the difficult hitting environment of the Florida State League and his injury may not explain the entire decline. 對光芒而言最合理的解釋是傷勢造成最後兩個月糟糕的表現。Hager 這兩年最大的不同點在長打能力。去年在A的ISO是.131，今年在A+只有.047，整季沒有全壘打，但A+場地對打擊者較不友善和傷病也許可以解釋整季的下滑。 ------ 20. Tim Beckham (23 Y.O. at Triple-A and Majors) 522 PA, .276/.342/.387, 8.4 BB%, 20.7 K%, 36 XBH, 17 SB (70.8%) (minor league stats only) Beckham gonna Beckham. His walk rate of 8.4% wasn't much different from his career mark of 8.3%. His 20.6% strikeout rate wasn't very different from his career rate of 21.3%. His .111 ISO is quite similar to his career ISO of .115. His .729 OPS beats his .686 OPS from last year in Durham, especially considering the league average dipped from 2012 to 2013. Beckham 依舊是Beckham，保送率8.3%、三振率20.6%和長打率.111都跟生涯差不多。OPS .729倒是比去年的.686來得出色，特別是考量到今年聯盟平均的 OPS比去年來得低。 Beckham continued to play a little second base with the Bulls in 2013. The defensive flexibility will help him add value if his defense isn't good enough to be an everyday player at shortstop or have the power to be an everyday player at third base. Maybe he can follow the same career path as Sean Rodriguez. Beckham今年在AAA有過幾場防守二壘的經驗。如果游擊區的防守沒有好到足以搶下固定先發，長打能力也不足以站三壘，防守的多元性可以提高他的價值。也許他可以循Sean Rodriguez的路線在大聯盟找到一席之地。 ------ 27. Brandon Martin (19 Y.O. at Class A) 292 PA, .206/.268/.347, 6.5 BB%, 22.3 K%, 7 HR, 10 SB (66.7%) In the past, I've written about the track record of first rounders who start their second full season in extended spring trianing. To be fair to Martin, he was injured at the beginning of the year, but when he was on the field, he showed he's still very raw. He's batted under .210 each of the last two seasons, and that highlights his biggest weakness: the hit tool. In his career, he has struck out in nearly 24% of his plate appearances, and he can't take advantage of his other tools if the ball isn't in play. 過去我曾追蹤過第一輪新秀經過第二年延長春訓的表現。Martin在年初受傷，當他重回賽場，只證明自己的球技還不夠成熟。打擊率連續兩年都在.210以下，也凸顯了他最大的缺陷：打擊。生涯三振率接近 24%，如果球無法打進場內，再多的優勢也無法展現。 Martin will still only be 20 next season, so time is not an enemy yet. His standout defense at shortstop will keep landing him chances in a lineup, and his speed and decent power potential remain intriguing. Players who can't hit rarely learn how to do so, but staying on the field and playing a full season can't hurt his chances. Martin下季只有20歲，所以年紀不是影響他成長最大的障礙。在出色的游擊區防守讓他能留在打線裡，速度和不錯的長打潛力依舊讓人對他抱持期待。不會打擊的球員很少突然開竅，但一個完整賽季的磨練對他還是有幫助的。個人補充：除了三振過多，Martin右殺的傾向很明顯，今年稍微回歸一致，卻是因為對左投不像過去這麼突出，在打擊上有很多問題有待解決，不過這也是他比較明顯的缺點。水準之上的長打能力和優異的防守範圍與臂力，讓他依舊是農場前段新秀，但如果要走得更遠，打擊成績勢必還要有明顯的提升。 ------ Riley Unroe (17 Y.O. at Rookie/Gulf Coast League) 202 PA, .246/.376/.341, 16.3 BB%, 21.3 K%, 11 XBH, 7 SB (77.8%) Unroe signed a little bit above slot for $997,500, and the middle infielder acclimated well to pro ball. He didn't make great contact, but his advanced approach allowed him to reach base consistently. He was an effective base stealer, and the power he showed at the end of his amateur career showed it has the potential to carry over in the tough hitting environment of the GCL. He won't be a major power threat, but 10+ home runs isn't out of the question for the switch hitter. Unroe 的簽約金略高於建議簽約金，這位中線內野手在職業賽場有不錯的起步，沒有展現出色的擊球能力，但水準之上的打擊觀念讓他可以保持穩定的上壘率。有效率的盜壘者，業餘時期最後的幾場比賽展現的長打能力，讓球探認為就算到了對打者比較不友善的GCL 依舊有機會展現出來。他不會是長打威脅，但對這位左右開弓的打者來說 10+全壘打並不是難事。 His defense is solid at shortstop and has the arm to play the left side of the infield, but it's not out of the question that he has to move to second base or center field down the road. He's smart and plays the game hard, and that effort will help him stay in the middle of the field. 游擊區防守紮實，臂力足以負荷內野左半邊的防守，也有球探認為他在未來會移防二壘或中外野。聰明且認真的球員，他的努力會讓他成為一位不錯的中線野手。 ------ Jonathan Quinonez (22 Y.O. at Short-Season Class A and Class A-Advanced) 178 PA, .325/.376/.476, 3.9 BB%, 12.4 K%, 22 2B Quinonez's 2013 season started in June with Hudson Valley, but after a sudden breakout offensive performance, he finished the year with Charlotte playing all around the diamond. He hit 13 doubles in 25 games with the Renegades on his way to a .902 OPS, and he continued hitting well after the big jump to the Stone Crabs. He didn't walk once in 65 plate appearances with Charlotte, but even with his aggressive approach he hardly strikes out. Quinonez今年六月從A-起步，進攻上的成長讓他快速升上A+。整年下來他守位相當多元，從內野守到外野。在A-的25場比賽擊出13發二壘安打，交出OPS .902的成績，上了A+表現也不錯。在A+的65個打席沒有選到任何保送，但積極的打擊型態讓他也很難被三振。 Quinonez never seems to play the same position two days in a row, and if he keeps hitting, it won't matter if he can't handle short. He was old for a player in short-season though, so it'll be important to see how he performs at more age appropriate levels. Quinonez從未連續兩天防守同個守位，如果能保持這樣的打擊成績，他能不能防守游擊也不會是重要的問題。年齡對A-層級而言偏大，所以在更高層級的打擊成績相當令人關注。個人補充： '08年簽約後，Quinonez隔了4年才來到美國，雖然有不錯的擊球和長打能力，但因為在所屬聯盟都屬於大齡新秀，所以很少被注意。去年受傷整季只出賽 8場比賽，光芒今年很大膽的提高他升級的速度（有點期末考的意味…），也意外得到不錯的效果。Quinonez每年的長打率都維持在.150上下，即使是放眼整個光芒農場，都屬於前段班，以中線野手的標準來說自然也是水準之上。生涯的防守成績很漂亮，明年應該還是會在A+適應一陣子，季中升上AA磨練。無庸置疑的，今年的好表現讓Quinonez未來更受到期待。 ------ Leonardo Reginatto (23 Y.O. at Class A) 466 PA, .325/.388/.393, 9.2 BB%, 12.4 K% Reginatto's season began in the World Baseball Classic representing his home country, a surprisingly competent Brazilian team. It finished with the best season of his pro career with Bowling Green. His .370 BABIP was surely a huge factor, but he was able to maintain a lower strikeout rate while increasing his walk rate to a career high. His .068 ISO was also a career high, but that's really splitting hairs compared to his .062 career mark. Reginatto今年率領巴西在WBC打出令人意外的好成績。隨後在 A交出了生涯最佳的表現。雖然BABIP .370明顯過高，但在保持低三振率的同時，也提高了保送率。長打率.068也是生涯新高，不過幅度並不明顯。 Hot Rods manager Jared Sandberg observed better defense from Reginatto in 2013, and some of that could probably be attributed to his work with Barry Larkin, the manager of Brazil in the WBC. He had mostly played third base going into this season, but he saw a majority of action at shortstop with Tyler Goeddel at the hot corner. 23 is clearly too old for the Midwest League, and it would've been nice to see him get bumped up to Charlotte last year. A-球隊經理Jared Sandberg注意到 Reginatto今年在防守端的成長，這可能要歸功於擔任巴西隊總教練Barry Larkin的調教。今年以前他防守三壘的機會較多，但為了要避開Tyler Goeddel所以移防游擊。23歲對A層級來說是偏大齡了，希望明年可以看到他在A+的好表現。 ------ Darryl George (20 Y.O. at Short-Season Class A) 258 PA, .286/.363/.339, 8.0 BB%, 15.5 K%, 9 SB (100%) George had a solid season with Hudson Valley, posting a .702 OPS in the tough hitting environment of the New York-Penn League. He's been a polished hitter who can put the ball in play with a nice approach, but the power that was expected of him has not been there as of yet (BA, $). A report from this season says he has below average tools but good instincts (BA, $), and it was mentioned that he was arrested recently. I can't find any further evidence of that. George今年在對打者不友善的A-交出OPS .702的好成績。打擊觀念已經很成熟，可以將球穩定打進場內，但長打能力還沒展現出來。今年BA的球探報告指出他的天分不高，但有很棒的球感，也許接下來的發展會受到阻礙。但目前還沒有明顯的證據可以說明這個觀點。 ------ Pat Blair (21 Y.O. at Short-Season Class A) 133 PA, .168/315/.243, 12.8 BB%, 21.1 K%, 7 SB (87.5%) Blair was one of college baseball's most patient hitters at Wake Forest, but he struggled to do much more at the plate as a professional. His 12.8% walk rate was merely really good instead of comically high like when he was an amateur, and he didn't make enough contact to make up for his lack of power. Since he's a good base runner and defender, he could stick around for a bit. Blair 是NCAA最有耐心的打者之一，但到了職業賽場，他在打擊區遇到不小的麻煩。以他在大學的標準來說，12.8% 的保送率只能算是還不錯，打擊的表現也不足以彌補長打能力的不足。跑壘和防守是他還有機會受到注意的理由。 ------ Enmanuel Paulino (19 Y.O. at Rookie/Princeton and Class A-Advanced) 128 PA, .246/.305/.331, 6.8 BB%, 27.3 K% Paulino started a whirlwind year in the Dominican Summer League, the first of four leagues he would play in during the season. For my convenience, the stats displayed are from his last two stops, the Appy League and FSL. He hammered the DSL in his brief time there, and his .994 OPS in 42 plate appearances is way out of line with the rest of his career. He was clearly overmatched as an injury fill-in with Charlotte, but even with Princeton he showed he has to cut down on his strikeouts. Paulino今年在DSL的起步很順利，42個打數裡交出OPS .994的成績，明顯高過生涯其他時刻的表現。做為傷兵的暫時補充，他的實力明顯還沒到A+，但在Rk的成績也顯示他需要降低三振次數。 ------ Spencer Edwards (20 Y.O. at Rookie/Princeton) 213 PA, .232/.290/.330, 7.0 BB%, 23.5 K%, 13 SB (81.3%) Edwards struggled again in year two of his pro career, but he was still better than last year's debut. His athleticism helps him on the bases and will keep him up the middle of the diamond, even if it's not at shortstop. He was able to improve his walk rate a little, but he still has to cut down on strikeouts and make more consistent contact. With the other young infielders in the system, he's probably ticketed for another year of extended spring training. 第二個職業賽季，Edwards 再次在職業賽場遇到麻煩，但表現還是比去年來得好。運動能力提高了在壘包間的威脅性，就算不守游擊，也是他將中線防守維持在水準之上的利器。保送率有進步，但還需要降低三振次數，並把擊球技巧磨練得更穩定。在農場還有其他年輕內野手的情況下，他明年可能還是得從延長春訓出發。 ------ Cristian Toribio (18 Y.O. at Rookie/Gulf Coast League) 160 PA, .266/.354/.338, 11.3 BB%, 24.4 K%, 10 SB (83.3%) Prior this off-season, Toribio was unknown to pretty much everyone except Ben Badler (all BA, $ req. for last three.) Now that he's playing in the U.S., he should be on some more radars. His slash line isn't incredibly impressive, but his average, OBP and SLG were all either at or above the league averages. He's probably always going to strike out a bit too much because he's an aggressive swinger, but he should make decent contact and hit the ball gap to gap and utilize his speed to get extra bases. 今年休賽期以前，除了Ben Balder之外還沒有人注意到 Toribio。但來到美國後他值得更多的關注。打擊三圍並不是特別令人印象深刻，但打擊率、上壘率和長打率都在聯盟平均之上。太過積極的出棒讓他的三振也許多了點，但未來有機會展現一定的擊球技巧把球打到防守佈陣的空隙，再利用速度跑出長打。 With his athleticism and solid arm strength, Toribio should be able to stick at shortstop. Because of all the other young infielders in the system, he'll also get experience playing all around the infield, like he did when he played almost half his games at third base. Maybe he never reaches the majors, but for $65,000, the Rays have probably already gotten their money's worth with Toribio. 運動能力和臂力會幫助 Toribio留在游擊，因為農場裡還有其他年輕內野手，他有機會嘗試防守其他守位，就像他今年幾乎有一半的時間待在三壘。也許他無法登上大聯盟，但這筆65 K的投資已經看到收穫了。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.118.235.118
