1. 紅襪告知Sweeney球隊不會買下他的合約，Sweeney很有可能會opt-out
--
所以JBJ和Carp應該是最後的兩位(但還沒正式宣佈)


2. 記者問Farrell關於JBJ在2018年/2019年的自由球員資格問題，Farrell表示明天會發
生什麼事都沒人知道了，遑論六年後


3. Bard in 8 ST games: 8 IP, 9 H, 7 R, 6 ER, 4 BB, 10 K, 2 HBP.

Nieve談把Bard下放到AA的原因： http://tinyurl.com/d678oaj

「很多AAA的球員會覺得打了六七場好比賽就可以準備回大聯盟了。我們注重的環節是
他的穩定度。春訓掉不掉分不重要，我們要的是他未來能在大聯盟投出優質的球路─
他也知道這需要花上好一陣子。」

4. http://t.co/18Ch0phUPM

＊ Carp沒有option了，如果下放他得經過Waiver─但是Carp這種等級的球員百分之一
萬會被撿走

＊ Sweeney的service time達到五年了，有權拒絕被下放。他可能沒辦法找到能讓他
上大聯盟的球隊，但是至少能找到機會比紅襪多的地方。

＊ 水兵DFA鯉魚的原因是前面擋了Smoak和Morales(陣容也沒有位置)，不是因為他很差

＊ Carp到2016年才會拿到FA資格

＊ Carp在2011年一共轟了32發全壘打(MLB+MiLB)，是個強打者。他甚至能守LF。

＊ Nava在春訓中展現驚人的上壘能力(OBP .446)，位置應該穩了。


5. 雙城第三任投手是規則五挑走的Pressly，有機會爭取雙城的最後一個位置
--
另外，Josh Fields順利的進入太空人的開季名單

6. Happy birthday to Ryan Kalish


7. Middlebrooks的日記： http://t.co/xWQBl6QUk7


With spring training winding to an end, I'm looking around and I have to say
that I love everything about this team. Everyone is already best friends and
gets along. While we have fun, we still push each other to be better.

--

＊ 老爹不在打線中，壓力會不會很大？

不會，I feel zero pressure. 這裡有很多很棒的打者。

＊ 常常去亂老爹，保持他的精神。不過老爹以情緒穩定著稱，He's still David. 他準
備好要回來了。

＊ Jonny Gomes是守左外野的Linebacker。他很棒，看他打球很有趣；他也會逼我認真打
球。他已經是這一隊的領導者了。

＊ Victorino是Flying Hawaiian，很有趣。他很有活力，也帶來了具有破壞力的速度。

＊ Dempster是隊上最有趣的人之一，待我很好。補他進來是很棒的事情。

＊ Hanrahan和我是很要好的朋友，前幾年都一起在達拉斯練球。他是能封鎖對手的投手
，也是個很棒的隊友。

＊ Drew是我的locker-mate，不過他因為腦震盪不能上場。腦震盪得經過一連串的測試，
這段期間很難熬。不過他開始練球了，希望他能趕快回來。

＊ 我都叫Napoli "Nap"，他是新面孔之中關係跟我最近的人之一。他住的地方離我家很
近，我們常常一起出門或是吃晚餐。

＊ 很期待JBJ能在今年拿出亮眼表現。我很希望他能打進開季陣容，這樣一來我就不是菜
鳥了。


8. http://t.co/yLW9LJE3OG Ranaudo 前一場(不是今天)的評價

Ranaudo has an ideal pitcher’s frame at 6-foot-7, but his mechanics are
inconsistent. He has a lot of moving parts in his delivery as a result of his
height, and he struggled to find his release point in the outing. When he got
locked into his arm slot in the third and fourth innings, however, he started
to cruise and easily overpowered hitters.

(姿勢很不穩定，找不到放球點；但是當他找到正確的姿勢後就開始電對手)

Ranaudo’s fastball velocity fluctuated greatly last year, sitting in the
high-80s in some outings. However, on this occasion Ranaudo had his normal
velocity, sitting 92-94 mph throughout the outing. He reached back to hit 95
mph on one occasion in the second inning, getting a strikeout on perfectly
located pitch on the outside corner. Struggles with command and balance
plagued him in the first inning as his arm slot fluctuated and he was
consistently slipping on his landing foot. He gave up only two hits off his
fastball, but one was a wind-aided grand slam that he left up in the zone.
Other than that, he overpowered Twins hitters with the pitch, recording nine
swing-and-misses. The pitch showed heavy arm-side run, especially when it was
located down in the zone.

(這次的速球大約92~94mph，最高95mph。但是他的手臂位置一直變動，平衡也有問題，移
動腳碰地後會滑。他的直球只被打兩支安打，但是變化球沒掉下來被扛出滿貫砲。不過
他也製造了九次揮空；他的球很有尾勁，會往右打者方向削過去，尤其是在好球帶底部的
時候。)

In the second inning, Ranaudo struggled somewhat with control, missing up
consistently. In the third and fourth innings, however, Ranaudo was locked in
with his arm slot and release point, and showed excellent command. He located
the fastball on both corners and up and down in the strike zone at will, and
the Twins hitters had no chance. In these two innings, he recorded five
strikeouts, four on fastballs, including striking out the side in the fourth
on three heaters up in the zone.

(第二局走鐘，控球不見了。三四局找回手臂的正確位置和放球點，控球變的很棒。直球
都隨心所欲的塞內外角、好球帶上下。這兩局三振了五個人，其中四個是用直球三振的。)

Ranaudo mixed in his curveball and changeup to complement the fastball. His
curveball was the better of the two secondary pitches, showing as a plus
offering at times during the outing. He clearly has confidence in the pitch,
demonstrating a willingness to throw it in any count. The pitch is a true
hammer curveball, which comes to the plate at 77-83 mph and has tight break
when he doesn’t release it late. He gave up two hits off the curve, one of
which came on a well-located pitch that the hitter was able to muscle to
right field. He got one strikeout on the pitch and two other
swing-and-misses, all three times when he buried the pitch down in the zone.

(Ranaudo用curveball和changeup配球，其中curveball比較好。)

Ranaudo’s changeup isn’t as advanced as his curveball, but he showed some
feel for it and it has the potential to be average-to-better. The pitch comes
from the same arm slot as his fastball, but he struggled to locate it down in
the zone during this start. When he leaves the pitch up in the zone, it is
flat and very hittable. He got away with the missed location on one occasion,
getting a deep fly out to center field, but another time he gave up a double.
When he did locate the pitch down in the zone, it showed some drop and fade.
His best changeup of the day came in the fourth inning when he threw one that
faded away from a left-handed batter with the count at 2-1.

(他的changeup沒那麼優，不過還是有希望成為average-to-better的球路。這場比賽中放
球方式和直球差不多，但是沒辦法壓低。)

While Ranaudo looks to be healthy and on the right track heading into the
year, he was still inconsistent with his command and delivery, and has plenty
of work left to do. Likely to start in Portland for a second time, he is one
of the more interesting prospects in the system and I am looking forward to
scouting him there to see if the stuff he showed in Saturday’s spring outing
carries over into the season.

(雖然他恢復健康了，但他還是有控球和姿勢不穩定的問題。)

不過，Ranaudo今日表現：4.1 IP，BF:13、7K、0H、0BB

https://twitter.com/seadogsradio/status/317344506183835648

Ranaudo topped out at 98...command of fastball was outstanding.


9. http://t.co/iCkrEMkWBM FO是怎麼做決定的呢？

1) 一對一對話或是小組討論

2) 包含Farrell、Cherington、教練團和FO職員大略12人進入"The War Room"進行辯
論(不過最終決定權握在Cherington一人手上)

--

很多棒球界人士會告訴你GM都會開會聽大家的意見，不過最後還是只聽自己的。

不過Farrell表示：

"I think that's where you get the true opinion and feeling and recommendation
in the room because it is accepted. It's not the loudest voice in the room is
the decision-maker. The ability to come and offer what you think, which may go
against the grain, there's mutual respect across the table and I think that,
over time, is what allows guys to feel comfortable to say, 'This is my true
belief.' Then we can take a different scenario and critically think out one,
two, three steps ahead to talk about what might unfold. The hypotheticals can
be more talked about.

"There are going to be times where he can poll everyone in there but he will
have to take the information in there and maybe in his own most quiet moment
be the swing vote and make a decision. He's very thorough. He's obviously
very smart. And he's not going to make a decision without turning over every
last rock."


10. Salty在AA(vs LHP)和AAA (vs RHP)都有出賽，想辦法多賺一些打席
