Adam Jones被放在10個只差一點的名單裡
看理由果然是因為防守XD
Adam Jones: Seattle Mariners (SS)

A personal guarantee: if Jones keeps up at even a shade of the pace he's on,
he'll finish the year on my top 75. At 19, the former first-round pick
dominated the California League, and has yet to slow down in AA. Also armed
with a first-round caliber arm as a pitcher, it's safe to say Jones doesn't
struggle with throws deep in the hole. I have him behind Cabrera, who has a
resume with more consistent success. If I tried to play Jim Callis' game, I
would go with this order: Cabrera, Jones, Betancourt, Tuiasasopo, Morse,
Navarro. All in all, our disagreement comes from Asdrubal. It's hard to not
be high on Jones.

我可以擔保：如果Jones能夠維持現在炙熱的打擊狀況，即使他的防守問題持續下去
他還是會出現在我的年終Top 75上面。以19歲的年紀，前第一輪選秀屠殺加州聯盟，
而且即使2A都沒能讓他慢下來。雖然擁有媲美投手，第一輪等級的手臂，對於Jones
的防守，只能說他對把球丟到洞裏這件事沒有出現低潮。我把他放在Cabrera後面，
因為Cabrera比起他在攻守兩面都很穩定。要我像Jim Callis一樣幫水手農場的游擊手
排名的話，我的順序是這樣：Cabrera, Jones, Betancourt, Tuiasasopo, Morse,
Navarro。差別在於Asdrubal的位置。很難不把他擺在Jones上面。
