選Biddle何需猶豫?

[Carreras (古 典 愛 樂)]

Phillies say picking local lefthander was a no-brainer
        POSTED: June 8, 2010 ; By PAUL HAGEN

Officially, the Phillies didn't make the decision on who to take in the
first round of this year's draft until shortly before 9:30 last night.
Now it can be told. The truth is that, barring an unforeseen road block,
they'd known since last Wednesday that they intended to spend the 27th
overall selection on a local product, lefthander Jesse Biddle from German-
town Friends School.

They made up their minds last Wednesday after Biddle, 18, auditioned
privately in the bullpen at Citizens Bank Park and wowed the assembled
baseball people.

        費球團居然在上週  把必多請到市銀公園  獨自試投給費高層看

        看得大家驚呼連連  於是PHI就決定第一輪要選他!

"He was outstanding, even better than he had been during the course of
the year," scouting director Marti Wolever said. "We just felt at this
time he was the best high school lefthander on the board. And it really
was a no-brainer."

        費球探老大Wolever表示  他們以為Biddle是今年度選秀最棒的南面爪

        所以選他  一點兒都不掙扎  考慮都不必考慮  是個很舒湖的決定!

Wolever compared the 6-5, 225-pound Biddle to Dodgers lefthander Clayton
Kershaw, who was drafted in the first round in 2006, made his major league
debut 2 years later and was 8-8, 2.79 in his first full big-league season
last year.

        馬上就被拿來跟道奇的科爾蕭比擬

        為啥不是跟黑魔使比呢?

        顯然Biddle的拿手球路不是變速球  噗 :D~~~

"They're about the same size. Jesse's arm might work a little easier,
quite frankly, than Clayton's did. But I think ceiling-wise and stuff-wise
they're very comparable. We think Jesse has a chance to be that guy in the
big leagues."
Some teams may have been concerned about Biddle's signability. The Phillies
apparently aren't.

        必多的順位可以更前面  問題在於他可能跑去讀大學

        他與奧勒岡大學已經有喏入學約定...

"I think it's very good. He has a commitment to the University of Oregon.
But I think he at least expressed a desire to pitch [professionally]. And,
of course, now's a pretty good fit here in your hometown. I think any young
man would be pressed to walk by this opportunity, especially in the first
round," Wolever said.

        Wolever不太擔心  因為Biddle是費城當地人

        據說開車到市銀球場  只要十幾分鐘 XD  "這點對他來說很誘人!"

He quickly added that being from the area wasn't the reason the Phillies
drafted Biddle. "He's a legitimate guy. "It has nothing to do with where
he's from. It's all about what we think he's got as chance to be," he said.
"There's a tremendous top side to him."

        Wolever又急忙澄清說  選Biddle絕對跟他是哪裡人無關

        Biddle是正港的貨真價實!

        潑盆冷水  想當初南爪狀元Joe Savery也是被說得多好又多好

        現在呢......orz

Biddle is being advised by Northern California-based agent Matt Sosnick,
who represents Dontrelle Willis, among others. Wolever noted that "he tries
to get his kids out to play."

        必多的經紀人跟火車董催威利斯是同一人

The more the Phillies saw of Biddle this year, the more they liked him.
His stock rose as the season progressed, culminating in last week's workout.
He's still considered raw but with a lot of potential.

        姥姥看女婿  愈看是愈滿意

        必多被認為還很嫩很菜  不過潛力無窮...天花板很高 XD

"He wasn't overwhelmed by being here in the park. He got prepared properly.
He's very intelligent, knows what to do," Wolever said. "He really handled
himself well. He just really acted like he belonged.

        Wolever說  那天Biddle並沒有被市銀公園迎接他的盛況嚇到

        一切都表現得很沉穩  更讓費高層欣賞他的心理素質...

"He's got fastball, curveball, slider and change. His slider is really
the pitch that's come on here recently. It's really developed quickly.
Everything has really developed quickly with him. He's come a long way
really fast. That was another intriguing point to us, how far he's come
from the beginning of spring until now.

        必多學東西很快  他現在會曲球  會滑球  會變速球 ...

"On Wednesday he was up to 94. A very easy 94. And I think there's still some
more there yet. Earlier in the year I think he was 89, 90, 91, in that range.
So I think there's still a ceiling to him yet."

        Wolever說  那天Biddle輕輕鬆鬆的  就飆出喏９４麥的快速球

        本來今年初  他以為Biddle大概就是90麥上下mediocre的直球

        沒想到過不到半年  居然... o_O

        因此  費認為他的快速球還有更往上飆的潛力!

       (贊曰: 你確定那天市銀的測速槍沒有故障?

              還是被別隊的史敗給動喏手腳  啊啊啊 XD~~~ )

Biddle was 9-2 with a 1.06 earned run average this season with 140 strikeouts
in 59 1/3 innings. He allowed just 21 hits and walked 29. As a junior, he was
5-0 with an 0.64 ERA.

        最好是可以這麼誇張!!

        59.1局  １４０次三振

        這啥鬼ㄚ  (￣ ￣")│││

        其他學校的打者: 哪有醬的啦... 這還算比賽嗎?

                        都給你玩好了! (翻桌... 不對 是甩棒 XD)

... 其餘略

The draft will continue today with rounds 2 through 30 and conclude tomorrow
with rounds 31 through 50.

        明天會繼續進行第二輪～第30輪的選新星

        別瞧不起後面的喔! 想想多摩君是第幾輪的 ccc
