You wouldn’t want to pay Diamondbacks general manager Josh Byrnes’cell
phone bill this month.
With Major League Baseball’s July 31 trade deadline just weeks away, Arizona’
s front office will be fielding plenty of calls from teams looking to poach
talent out of what is considered baseball’s best farm system. The Diamondbacks
may be placing a few calls of their own in hopes of improving their chances in
the National League West.
Time will tell whether the Diamondbacks will be buyers or sellers in the trade
market. Three games before the All-Star break, they are just five games behind
first-place San Diego in the NL West standings. Whether they trade one of their
prospects for a starter or call up one of several major league-ready players
for the stretch run, these names are worth noting.
What about us?
It’s easy to be overlooked in a farm system like the D-Backs have. Here are
a few more prospects who are grabbing the attention of scouts.
Dustin Nippert, 25, SP, AAA, Despite poor showing in recent spot start with
D-Backs, 2002 draftee will be a candidate for next year’s rotation.
Garrett Mock, 23, SP, AA, 2004 draftee has progressed slowly, but with
seasoning he’s expected to catch up with other prospects.
Micah Owings, 23, SP, AAA, Owings has risen quickly from the 2005 College
World Series to Triple-A in his first full professional season.
Miguel Montero, 22, C, AA, Catches every day in the heat of the Southern
League and is said to excel at managing the pitching staff.
Alberto Callaspo, 23, 2B, AAA, Acquired in a trade from the Angels, Callaspo
could wind up a top utility player like Alex Cintron.
Other names to remember: 1B Chris Carter (AAA), UTL Jerry Gil (AA),
2B Danny Richar (AA), RHP Matt Torra (inj.)
要不要猜猜那位會被交易出去XD
