Draft - 美國職棒

※ 引述《KoAnne (I love Boston)》之銘言：
: 55th Overall - Nicholas Hagadone
: - University of Washington
: Pitcher - 6'5", 230 lbs. - Bats/Throws: L/L
: ---Hagadone spent last season starting behind Tim Lincecum, who's already
: pitching in the majors for the San Francisco Giants. Because of Washington's
: lack of depth this year, Hagadone was moved to the closer's role after just
: two starts and demonstrated the ability to save games and go longer
: distances. It's unclear whether he will be a starter or reliever in the big
: leagues, but most scouts believe he has the stuff to be a good starter. He
: has three pitches -- a live 90-93 MPH fastball, an above-average slider that
: tears up left-handed hitters, and a decent (work-in-progress) changeup.

Hagadone上個球季是Tim Lincecum(SF新秀,火球男,下一個Oswalt)之後的第二號先發,
因為球隊陣容的缺乏深度,這個球季在兩次先發之後被移到終結者的位置上,現在還不清楚
未來會先發或是呆在牛棚,不過大部分球探認為他有能力成為好的先發投手,擁有三種球路,
會跑的90-93 MPH速球,平均以上的對左打特別有效的滑球,仍在發展中相當不錯的變速球
可能會循Papelbon模式進職業後再回到先發,被認為至少可以成為大聯盟的Set-Up

: 62nd Overall - Ryan Dent
: - Woodrow Wilson High School (Long Beach, CA)
: Shortstop - 6'0", 190 lbs. - Bats/Throws: R/R
: ---Dent is a very good hitter with blazing speed. He's shown the ability to
: run wild on the basepaths while also hitting to all fields with decent power.
: While he played shortstop in high school, his average arm strength and
: just-OK fielding may require a move to second base or possibly the outfield.
: He's a possible leadoff hitter with the athletic ability to contribute in
: many areas.

很棒的打者閃電一樣的速度,展現跑壘的天份,可以把球打到球場的任何角落,不錯的力量,
高中是游擊手,平均以上的臂力還可以的防守,進職業後可能會被移往二壘或外野(CF),
可能的第一棒打者,在場上很多方面都能做出貢獻

: 84th Overall - Hunter Morris
: - Grissom High School (Huntsville, AL)
: First Base/Outfield - 6'4", 200 lbs. - Bats/Throws: L/R
: ---Morris has great raw power from the left side and hit tons of home runs
: throughout high school. However, his approach at the plate could use some
: work and he isn't considered a great fielder. Either way, his power is the
: huge upside here and that's why the Red Sox took him.

很棒的長打能力,高中幹了一大堆左半邊全壘打,防守不好,揮棒機制還要調整

: 114. Brock Huntzinger- RHP
: He's a polished high school pitcher who can repeat his delivery and maintain
: a low-90's fastball. Should be an interesting follow. Not a high ceiling here.

成熟的高中投手,穩定的投球機制保持速球在low-90's,值得觀察,沒有很高的潛力

: 144. Christopher Province-RHP
: Typical Sox 4th round pick, where they look for an undervalued player.
: Province will be a senior sign and come relatively cheap. He can throw a mid
: 90's fastball from the pen with a high 80's slider.

典型的紅襪第四輪選秀,被低估的選手,比較便宜的約,mid90's 速球,high 80's 滑球

: 174. Will Middlebrooks- RHP
: A legitimate two-way player,Middlebrooks got scouted as both a pitcher and
: infielder. While he throws up 94mph, most see his future as a position player
: ,probably at third base. He's got obvious arm strength and is a tremendous
: athlete who also was a football standout. At the plate,he's got some serious
: power potential with the kind of frame teams like to see from a future run
: producer at hot corner

這在國外論壇被稱為紅襪選秀一大偷,原本可能在第一輪後段被選,投打雙棲,在投手丘上
可以投出94mph,但身為野手的發展性較投手更佳,可能位置在三壘,極佳的臂力和強大的
運動能力,高中也是美式足球的外接員,有長打潛力,能在內野兩個角落對球隊有所貢獻

: High School- 4
: College- 2
: Pitcher- 3
: Position Player- 3
