避免有人說我輕視自己的農場, 同一link裡發表以及研究更徹底的Tom球迷有
不同意見. 這我也他X滴同意:
Sorry Cubtex, I work a late shift on Thursday and I just
got back home.
I stand by what I've reported about LeMahieu, that he has
offensive skills and has the potential to contend for a
batting championship. As for those who feel he has no
speed, consider that he has batted either second or third
in the line-up for nearly all of his professional career.
Those are not spots that usually are free to run at will.
When given a chance in the AFL, LeMahieu was second in the
league with 14 stolen bases.
As I've always reported, the problem that LeMahieu is
defensive. He is agile, has quick hands, and a strong arm.
However, at 6'4", he will very quickly out-grow a middle
infield position. He is better suited for third or first.
But considering most fans believe it to be carved in stone
somewhere that those positions have to display 25+ home run
power, he probably won't get many chances at those
positions.
Many fans forget Colvin's punctured lung at the end of the
2010 season. This injury set him back, as he was supposed
to attend winter ball and concentrate on playing first
base. Management panicked, and signed Carlos Pena instead,
basically taking a position away from Colvin. The best
thing they could have done was send him to Triple-A.
However, they decided to use him in a reverse-platoon,
catering to a veteran.
Overall, this was a good scouting job by the Rockies. They
acquire a younger, more athletic player than Seth Smith,
whom Colvin will compete with for the starting position.
They also get a better hitter in LeMahieu than two aging
Oakland A's castoffs Kevin Kouzmanoff and Mark Ellis who he
will vie to replace. All for two players the Rockies no
longer had a use for. Not as bad on scale as last year's
Garza trade, but the same concept. The Cubs didn't get
equity in return for what they gave up.
