王建民 2003 年排洋基農場第五, 排名最高的一年, 2005 排第十, 沒進過 BA 百大

5. Chien-Ming Wang, rhp

Age: 22. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-3. Wt.: 200.

Signed: Taiwan, 2000. Signed by: John Cox/Gordon Blakeley.

Background: Signed to a $1.9 million bonus, Wang came to the United States
with high expectations. His 2000 pro debut was solid, but a shoulder
injury knocked him out for all of the following year. He returned in 2002,
tossing eight shutout innings to clinch the New York-Penn championship for
Staten Island, then earned the MVP award for Taiwan at the Asian Games.

Strengths: Wang is polished in spite of his relative inexperience. He
maintains 90-95 mph velocity on his fastball with a clean delivery and
free arm action. His splitter and hard, late slider give him two more
knockout pitches, and his changeup is also a reliable option. He can
command all four pitches in the strike zone.

Weaknesses: While Wang looked to be back to 100 percent, he hasn't pitched
a full season yet. There hasn't been a Taiwanese pitcher who has come to
the States and avoided major injury, so his durability remains a question.

The Future: If Wang stays healthy, the Yankees are prepared to put him on
the fast track. He could start 2003 in high Class A and reach Double-A
Trenton before the end of 2003.
