Eastern League
Theodore Lester Beam Jr., known to all in baseball as "T.J.," is making quite
an impression as a member of the Thunder's 2006 bullpen.
T.J. Beam 身為2A牛棚一員良好的表現給人印象深刻.
Standing 6-foot-7 is just a part of it.
身高六呎七只是其中一個原因.
Beam, a 25-year-old right-hander drafted out of the University of
Mississippi in the 10th round in 2003, is making manager Bill Masse smile
with his work and the Yankees' minor-league brass notice his progress.
25歲右投 畢業於密西西比大學 在2003年第十輪選秀中選出
目前表現正讓Bill Masse經理滿意 而洋基MiLB高層正注意著他
"He's just been great," said Masse of Beam, who, in eight appearances and 21
innings, is 2-0 with a minuscule 0.43 ERA, having surrendered just one earned
run. "T.J. has shown he can pitch at this (Double-A) level."
" Beam很棒" Masse說, 他在8次出場 21局投球內 成績2勝0敗 era 0.43
只有一分自責, " 他已經證明他可以主宰2A這層次"
After opening 0-10 and 1-12, the Thunder (9-16 heading into weekend play)
have begun to dig out of their hole with the bullpen leading the way. Of the
club's nine wins, seven have come from the bullpen.
在球隊季初以0勝10敗 接連1勝12敗之後 球隊(9勝16敗領先進入weekend play)開始
藉著牛棚的力量突破困境,在九勝之中 七勝落在牛棚上
"We really have nothing set as far as a setup man and a closer," said Beam,
although the return of Justin Pope from Triple-A Columbus may change that.
"Everyone has pitched well -- J.B. (Cox), Charlie (Manning), (Francisco)
Butto.
" 我們真的沒有明確定位的SU和CP是誰" Beam說 ,即使從3A回來的Justin Pope可能
改變這個狀況,"每個人都投的很好 J.B. Cox, Charlie Manning, Francisco Butto
"I'm really comfortable at this level," he said. "We have a lot of veterans
and a lot of good leaders on this team. We had a tough start, but we'll be
fine. This is a good team."
我在這真的覺得很好, 我們有很多經過歷練的老手和好的帶領者,
我們有個艱苦的季初, 但我們將會上軌道, 這是個好球隊.
Beam, rated the Yankees' No. 24 prospect by Baseball America, is following
the road paved by Matt Smith and Manning, taking residence in the bullpen
after coming into the organization as a starter.
Beam, 由BA評價 洋基的No.24 prospect, 從先發位置補上Matt Smith和Manning
後援的位置,
At Ole Miss, Beam used a fastball that touched 92-93 mph to dominate the
Southeastern Conference, a league often filled with sinker-slider types and
off-speed specialists.
在Ole Miss, Beam以92-93mph的快速球控制整個Southeastern Conference聯盟,
這聯盟充斥著沉球 滑球 和off-speed的選手.
After a 2-1 mark at short-season Staten Island to begin 2003, the Class-A
Midwest League proved tougher, as a 2-1 mark in Battle Creek came with a 5.81
ERA. After a combined 4-9 mark with same two teams in 2004, the decision was
made to move Beam to the bullpen.
2003年,Staten Island A-短季聯盟取得2勝1敗的戰績之後,
在 Battle Creek A-聯盟 更顯的艱苦,取得2勝1敗的era 5.81戰績,
2004年, 在同樣的兩個球隊取得總成績4勝9敗之後,轉入牛棚.
Two things happened. His fastball picked up velocity and he got command of
his slider, a needed second pitch. He was 4-4 combined with the Yankees' two
Class-A teams -- Charleston (S.C.) and Tampa (Fla.) -- with his effectiveness
increasing as the season went on.
兩件事發生了,他的快速球球速增加,也掌控了第二個武器--滑球
他在Charleston 和Tampa兩個A聯盟取得4勝4敗的戰績,且隨著球季的進展逐漸增加實力
A pair of saves at Charleston and a strikeout-to-walk numbers of 105-25 were
strong indicators of his progress and earned him a spot on the Yankees'
40-man roster.
在Charleston的2SV和78SO 18BB 證明了他的進步,也因此進入40人名單
"I'm glad I was able to start at Double-A this year, and I realize I have a
lot to learn," said Beam. "So far, it's gone well."
"我很高興今年從2A出發, 我也發現到我有很多需要學習,到目前為止進展不錯"Beam說
Toward the end of spring training, Beam and Yankees minor-league pitching
coordinator Nardi Contreras began working on an additional pitch.
Beam和洋基小聯盟coordinator Nardi Contreras開始發展新球路,朝著春訓的終點進展
"Nardi taught me the split-finger fastball, and I've been throwing it some
here," Beam said. "I'm not looking to throw it for strikes yet, but just to
get the feel of it."
"他教我SFF,我也在這丟了一些" Beam 說,"我並沒有尋求好球, 只是去感覺他而已"
Another offspeed pitch -- Beam also throws a changeup -- would solidify his
status as a prospect. These days, his fastball can hit 96 mph, enough to
overpower hitters when spotted successfully.
另一種offspeed投球-Beam也投變速球-將使他prospect的地位更穩固,這些日子,
他的快速球可以達到96mph,當登板的時候 足以成功擊倒打者
"What's nice about our organization now is people like (Yankees player
development chief) Mark Newman and (chief scout) Damon Oppenheimer have a lot
of confidence in us," Beam said.
"我們組織的人物非常棒,像是Mark Newman(洋基球員發展長和)Damon Oppenheimer
(主球探),他們對我們很有信心"Beam說
"They know we have some talent, with both pitching and hitting. There will be
trades, and new guys being signed, but we look to guys like Robinson Cano,
Chien-ming Wang and Matt, guys from our system who have made it.
"他們知道我們在投球和打擊方面很有能力, 有交易, 新人會簽約加入,
我們期望有人會成功, 像是Robinson Cano, 王建民, Matt"Beam說
