Hansen跟Pedroia的評價好低....
不過這好像是我第一次看到Buchholz排在Ellsbury的前面!!
1. Clay Buchholz, rhp
DOB: 8/14/84
Height/Weight: 6-3/190
Bats/Throws: R/R
Drafted: 1st round, 2005, Angelina (Texas) JUCO
What he did in 2006: 2.62 ERA at Low A (103-78-29-117); 1.13 ERA at High A
(16-11-4-23)
The Good: Every part of game took a step forward in 2006. Fastball bumped up
from low-to-mid 90s, curveball moved into plus status, changeup remained
outstanding as ever and control got better. Added all up, this is a
tremendous leap.
The Bad: The biggest concern is just of a regression. By the end of 2006, he
had no major issues – throwing three-plus pitches for strikes with clean
mechanics. He's yet to really be tested, and some would like to see him put a
few pounds on to help his stamina.
The Irrelevant: While Buchholz set new single-season records for ERA (1.05)
and strikeouts (129) during his one year at Angelina, he has a long way to go
to become the most famous alumni. That honor goes to Mark Calaway, better
known as professional wrestling's "The Undertaker."
In a Perfect World, He Becomes: An early-rotation starter.
Gap Between What He Is Now, And What He Can Be: Average – During trade talks
in the offseason, most teams were asking about Buchholz over anyone else, and
he seems to be unavailable on any level. The Red Sox might skip him to
Double-A to avoid the California League.
2. Jacoby Ellsbury, cf
DOB: 9/11/83
Height/Weight: 6-1/185
Bats/Throws: L/L
Drafted: 1st round, 2005, Oregon State
What he did in 2006: .299/.379/.418 at Low A (281 PA); .308/.387/.434 at AA
(225 PA)
The Good: Prototypical leadoff hitter/centerfielder. Excellent bat speed and
good pitch recognition allows him to lace line drives all over the field.
He's a 70 runner (on the 20-80 scouting scale), and knows how to use it –
excellent base stealer and outstanding range in the outfield.
The Bad: Power ceiling is limited. Hit for a good average and draws a good
numbers of walks, but neither skill is overwhelming enough to project as a
real impact player, as opposed to simply good. Below-average arm.
The Irrelevant: While this has probably changed since he received his $1.4
million signing bonus, Ellsbury listed his favorite restaurant on his college
media guide bio as The Olive Garden. Live it up a little, Jacoby.
In a Perfect World, He Becomes: An every day leadoff man/centerfielder. Wait,
I already said that.
Gap Between What He Is Now, And What He Can Be: Low – Ellsbury is moving
quickly, as there is a need for a player like him in Boston. Depending on
roster shenanigans, he'll start the year at Double- or Triple-A and should be
up before the season is out.
3. Michael Bowden, rhp
DOB: 9/9/86
Height/Weight: 6-3/215
Bats/Throws: R/R
Drafted: 1st round, 2005, Illinois HS
What he did in 2006: 3.51 ERA at Low A (107.2-91-31-118); 9.00 ERA at High A
(5-9-1-3)
The Good: Nice combination of size and skill. 89-92 mph fastball is brought
up a grade for Bowden's ability to command the pitch, and his curveball gives
him a second plus offering. Big-bodied and maintains his stuff well into the
later innings.
The Bad: Like many young arms, Bowden never needed a changeup in high school
and is still trying to get a feel for the pitch. Scouts don't like his
multi-stage delivery and would like to see smoother mechanics. Has tendency
to gear up in pressure situations and overthrow.
The Irrelevant: Work on the warm-up: Opposing hitters batted .303 against
Bowden in the first inning, but .211 thereafter.
In a Perfect World, He Becomes: A middle-rotation innings eater.
Gap Between What He Is Now, And What He Can Be: High – Bowden is two years
younger than Buchholz and not as polished a product, so the Red Sox will take
it a little slower with him. He'll begin the year at High Class A.
