[球員] Irving Falu
Born: 1983/06/06 Age: 28
Height: 5-11 Weight: 180
Place of birth: Hato Rey, PR
Bats/Throws: B / R
Drafted by: the Kansas City Royals in 2003 (21st round)
Irving Falu is one of the prospects we aren't allowed to get excited about,
for some reason. Actually, the main reason is that he's probably not that
good.
Irving Falu就某些因素來說是一個我們不感到興趣的新秀。講真的，可能就是因為他不
夠好
A quick summary of my ignorance: I thought Irving Falu was a) older b) a
minor league journeyman and c) a little better than he is. He is none of
those things. In my mind he was a minor league free agent that Dayton signed
in 2008 or something, but he's not. He's a Baird-era draft pick, taken in the
21st round of 2003. I thought Falu was 30 by now, easily. He isn't. He'll be
only 29 next season. And, perhaps because of some good Spring Training stats
or just a plain mistake, I had in my mind that Falu was a consistently good
hitter in AAA.
在我空空的腦海裡的印象:我想像中的Irving Falu是一個a.老頭b.小聯盟浪人的以及c.只
是稍微好一點。但他其實都不是。我的印象中他是Moore在08年FA市場簽下來的之類的，
但並不是。他是Baird世代的新秀，03年21輪的球員。我還以為Falu早就30了，不過他下
個球季就要29了。或許是因為他春訓都打的不錯以及誤認，我以為他是一直是一個很好的
3A打者。
Eh:
Year Age Lev G PA 2B 3B HR BA OBP SLG OPS
2009 26 AAA 122 532 19 5 2 .269 .342 .344 .686
2010 27 AAA 119 552 14 6 1 .272 .327 .330 .657
2011 28 AAA 111 437 10 9 2 .301 .358 .390 .747
Basically, I've been living a lie. Or, more specifically, the Irving Falu
that lived in my mind was a lie. I imagined that he was a classic
under-appreciated AAAA hitter, who probably has no position and has a
terrible defensive rep. Part of that may actually be the case. I dare you to
look at Falu's defensive assignments last season and figure it out.
我的印象中他就是個不被賞識的4A球員，他可能沒有定位跟有一份糟糕的防守報告。可能
有一小部分是實際狀況。但我敢保證當你看他去年的防守就知道我想說的
We don't think about future utilitymen as something you develop, but there's
actually something to it. If Falu can truly play a competent middle infield
(both positions) and look OK in the OF in a pinch, then maybe, he might have
some use as the 25th man down the road. Better Falu at the minimum than
Bloomquist for $2 million.
我不知道未來工具人的發展如何，但肯定是現在少不了。如果他在內野中心手的不錯，外
野野看起來都OK的話，那麼他可能成為第25個前往大聯盟路上的人。至少他比Bloomquist
便宜2M呢
Of course, this is irrelevant because Ned Yost doesn't believe in using his
bench, ever. So anyway, Irving Falu
當然，這些可能根本是空談，因為Yost根本不會相信他的板凳。
