[bj0 (我是誰)]

Date of Birth: May 13, 1991 in Bradenton, Florida

Height/Weight: 6'0", 190 pounds

Position: Catcher, Third Base

J.R. Murphy was selected by the Yankees in the second round of the 2009 MLB
June Amateur Draft. His stock rose during his senior year of high school when
he made the switch from outfield to catcher, and that showed with his
inclusion in Baseball America's and Keith Law's top 100 draft prospects. His
commitment to the University of Miami provided the leverage he needed for a
$1.25M signing bonus.
In his professional debut, Murphy saw very limited action. In 37 plate
appearances, Murphy's triple slash was impressive at .333/.405/.485. Granted,
this was a very small sample size. In 2010, Murphy spent the year with
Charleston, the Yankees' A Ball affiliate. In his first full season of
professional baseball, Murphy held a triple slash line of .255/.327/.376 with
7 homers and 15 doubles at the age of 19. So far in 2011, his line at
Charleston is .333/.348/.524 with 3 homers and 3 doubles.

洋基在2009年以第二輪選上了他，高三時他從外野手轉成捕手，
從名列BA和Keith Law's top 100新秀中可以知道，這個轉變使他引人矚目
當時曾經表示要去念大學，這使他的簽約金達到了1.25M。

職業生涯的初次登場，表現機會不是很多。在小樣本的37個打數中
打擊三圍是.333/.405/.485。2010年整年都待在Charleston
這年19歲的他的打擊三圍.255/.327/.376 七發全壘打 15支二壘打
2011年迄今，目前表現是333/.348/.524  3hr  3 2B

Scouting Report: Per Mike Axisa of RAB:

    The first thing everyone notices about Murphy is his swing and hitting
ability. He has a simple, compact, and level swing that produces good bat
speed and is conducive to line drives. Combined with a disciplined approach,
Murphy should have no trouble hitting for average as he climbs the ladder. At
6′-0〃 tall and 190 lbs, he stands to add muscle as he fills out, which
should allow him to drive a healthy amount of balls out of the park down the
road.

    Murphy’s an above average athlete, though he’s not quite as good of a
runner as you’d expect, and will only slow down as he matures. Defensively,
he didn’t start catching until his senior year of high school, so he’s very
raw behind the dish. He does have a strong and accurate arm, though he needs
experience at just about everything the position demands. Murphy’s athletic
enough that he can play other positions – including third base – but the
Yankees are going to try to extract as much value as possible out of him
before making a switch.

首先大家會注意到的他的是他的揮棒和打擊能力。他簡單、簡潔、筆平的揮棒
使他有好的揮棒速度，並且有助於他打出平飛球。如果未來能有選球能力
一路向上升級不是問題。6"-0  190 lbs，未來長大能更壯，這應該可以
讓他未來有機會將球打出場外。

Murphy是個平均水準以上的選手，但在跑壘上則不夠好，而且未來長大速度會更慢
防守上，因為是到高三才轉變成捕手，雖然臂力及準度都有，但仍缺乏經驗
他的運動天分可以讓他改守其他位置，例如三壘，但洋基在他轉換之前會試著
從他身上挖掘出更多價值。


A switch back to the outfield or to third base is not out of the question,
especially with the wealth of catching depth the Yankees possess.

Another thing I read in the past is that Murphy has shown very good power in
batting practice, but that power has not translated well to games. As that
power begins to translate, he'll see more success and his stock will rise.

在人才濟濟的洋基農場，從外野轉變到三壘不是問題。
Murphy在打擊練習時有顯示出很棒的power，可是比賽中卻發揮不出
如果power能顯現出來，他能更成功，價值更大。

Here are multiple scouting reports on the former second rounder.

Estimated Time of Arrival: If J.R. Murphy ever sees time behind the plate for
the New York Yankees, I will be very surprised. With Russell Martin,
Francisco Cervelli, Jesus Montero, Austin Romine, and Gary Sanchez in the
organization, it will be very difficult for him to crack the depth chart. He
is more likely to change positions or be traded.

However, knowing the Yankees, Murphy will stay behind the plate until it
becomes blatantly obvious that he cannot stay there in order to maximize his
value. Athletic catchers with decent power potential don't come along very
often, so if his defense improves, the Yankees will be in luck, as Murphy
would be another catcher in an already loaded system.

If he stays with the Yankees, Murphy will most likely be going
station-to-station when it comes to his development. I don't think he'll play
in the Bronx, but if he does, late 2013 or 2014 seems to be a realistic date
for his arrival, assuming all goes well.

如果未來有一天他能為洋基蹲捕，這會讓人滿驚訝的。因為整個洋基系統裡
有Martin,Francisco Cervelli, Jesus Montero, Austin Romine,Gary Sanchez這些人
他要讓這捕手深度更強些未來不大可能，因為可能會轉換位置或被交易。

然而，我們也知道洋基會怎麼做，他應該會一直蹲捕，直到明顯地了解到繼續當捕手
只是為了最大化這位選手的價值，有不錯power的捕手不多見，如果他的防守能進步
洋基將很幸運，因為他會是農場滿滿捕手中的一員。

如果他能繼續留在洋基，隨著發展將一級一級往上升，我不認為他有天會為洋基打球
如果有機會，假設一切順利，2013或2014或許是個適當的時間點。
