Is Ubaldo Jimenez a bona fide ace? UBall是貨真價實的ACE嗎? : Armed with one of the most electrifying fastballs, Jimenez cemented himself : early in the 2010 season as a pitcher to watch. I know that when I saw he was : pitching on television, I made sure my DVR was recording. 擁有可怕的火球，Jimenez是10球季初最亮眼的投手之一。當我看到他在電視上投球，馬上就把我的錄影機打開。 : Jimenez throws nearly 100 mph with incredible movement, and that’s just his : four-seamer. His two-seamer has equally devastating movement with slightly : less speed. According to Fangraphs pitch value index, his fastball registered : as the second best in the majors last year with a rating of 30.0. To give you : a frame of reference, only 11 other pitchers in the game had a rating higher : than 20.0. UBall有將近100mph、尾勁刁鑽的速球，這還只是他的四縫線。他的二縫線同樣很會跑，只是速度慢了點。根據Fangraphs的數據，他的速球在整個大聯盟中排名第二，拿到30分。 30分有多棒呢?其他投手高於20分的球路只有11種。 : His start to the 2010 season was by far the most talked about, especially in : the fantasy baseball communities. Every “expert” was staking his claim of : finding him first. I will argue that his lackluster control could be blamed : on how nasty his stuff is. 現在講到Uball，很少不提他那驚人的10年開季，特別是在FB社群。每個"專家"要證明自己的觀點，都先拿Jimenez出來舉例。不過我覺得，他在控球上的問題，會對他那優異的球路造成一些影響。 : He is a 200-plus strikeout pitcher who should pitch another 215-plus innings. : His delivery seems effortless while cranking it up in the high 90s. He’s 27 : years old and uses his power to get groundball rates in the low 50s. People : must remember that he is accomplishing all these feats, humidor or not, in a : top three hitter’s park. He is an ace in every sense of the word, and once : he gains more control of his filthiness he could be a 20-game winning Cy : Young Award winner very soon. 他本季應該能投出另一個215+局的球季，並且飆出200次以上的三振。儘管飆出high-90s 的火球，他的出手還是非常輕鬆。他只有27歲，能夠用球威把滾球率控制在50幾趴。人們應該牢記，他是在一個極端偏向打者的球場(不管有沒有保濕器)，達成這些數據。不管你怎麼定義ACE，他就是ACE。而且只要他能夠改善控球，UBall絕對是能夠20勝的賽揚級投手。 How will the West be won? 國西激戰誰會脫穎而出? : The Rockies have all the pieces in place to be successful in 2011. They have : three good starters. They play good defense. Their lineup has power, speed : and role players, and 2010’s playoff run should give them the confidence to : know that the postseason is within reach. 今年的洛磯準備好了。他們有三個好投手，好的防守陣容。打線部分，有砲有腿有替補。去年與季後賽擦身而過，今年的洛磯隊應該要更有信心。 : Obviously health will play a major factor, probably more so for the Rockies : than other teams in the National League West. Tulowitzki, Ian Stewart and : Street must stay healthy for the Rocks to compete against the 2010 World : Series Champion San Francisco Giants or the wildly talented Los Angeles : Dodgers. I don’t foresee the Padres performing as valiantly as they did in : 2010. The Padres will not be able to sneak up on anyone, and the Arizona : Diamondbacks are still a few players off from becoming a real contender. 當然健康很重要，對落磯來講可能更重要。Tulo、Stewart跟Street，都是球隊的基石，他們必須保持健康，才能跟衛冕冠軍舊金山巨人，以及才華洋溢的洛杉磯道奇隊一較長短我不認為教士隊能打出去年的戰績，他們應該不能當攪局者。至於響尾蛇，他們還缺少一些球星，讓他們能夠重返競爭者之林。 : How will the Rockies defeat the Giants? That’s going to be a task. The : Giants have lost nothing since last year and welcome Brandon Belt, a future : batting champion to their roster. The Rockies will have to have great : performances from the back end of the rotation with Jason Hammel and Esmil : Rogers and have one of their position players step hisr game up, whether that : ’s Dexter Fowler or Stewart or more likely Seth Smith. 洛磯怎樣才能打敗巨人呢? 這也許有點困難。他們的冠軍陣容今年捲土重來，還多加了 Brandon Belt這個潛力新秀。洛磯必須在輪值的後段(Hammel、Rogers)有所表現，同時也要有Tulo、Cargo以外的打者大爆發，像是Fowler、Stewart或者更有可能是Smith。 : I think the Rockies match up much better against the Dodgers in both hitting : and pitching. Colorado plays better defense and will not be intimidated down : the stretch if the action is forced under the lights of Tinseltown. 另一方面，我認為今年的洛磯在攻守方面都優於道奇。洛磯的防守比較好，也不會受到好萊塢刺眼鎂光燈的威嚇下做出錯誤決策(這句有點酸...) : A fight for a wild card spot is more realistic than an outright win of the NL : West. The Giants have too much of everything to bet against at this point. I : could see a real battle with Atlanta or Philadelphia into late September. But : I think the Rockies can give up their dreams of making it much farther than : that. Maybe next year. 爭奪外卡或許比搶下國西桂冠來的實際。巨人的陣容看起來還是非常嚇人。我可以預期費城人與勇士到了九月底還殺的難分難捨，不過我覺得洛磯應該可以讓其中一隊的外卡夢碎。他們明年再來吧! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.134.179.129
