※ 引述《bounds (認真的人就輸了)》之銘言： : Pitching future plenty bright for Braves : Organization might have most top-flight prospects in its history : By Mark Bowman / MLB.com : LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- When Tom Glavine, John Smoltz, Steve Avery and Kent : Mercker were advancing through their farm system two decades ago, the Braves : didn't know exactly how special that group of young pitchers would prove to be. : But with their farm system now stocked with the live arms possessed by Tommy : Hanson, Jeff Locke, Julio Teheran and Cole Rohrbough, they understand why some : believe that they have more top-level pitching prospects than at any other : point in the organization's long history. 在老葛、老史、Avery與Mercker在20年前由自家農場系統助勇士後，勇士已不知道他們的年輕投手們是否能夠證明自己的特別。不過他們的農場現在擁有許多年輕的肉體如 Tommy Hanson,Jeff Locke, Julio Teheran 以及Cole Rohrbough等人。他們能夠理解為何有些人相信與漫長歷史中的任一時刻相比，這群投手新秀皆屬頂級。 : "This is fun to watch," said Guy Hansen, a long-time pitching coach in the : Atlanta farm system. "It's exciting. I'm like a kid in a candy store when I'm : watching all of these young kids pitch. This is the best depth I've ever seen : in any system." "嘿，等著瞧吧。"勇士農場中的投教Guy Hansen說，"太讓人興奮了，當我看到這群小朋友在投球時就好像小屁孩在糖果屋的感覺一樣。這是我見過最棒的農場深度了！" : Tabbed as the game's fourth-best prospect by Baseball America, Hansen heads : the cast of young pitchers that have created so much optimism. The 22-year-old : right-hander, who is expected to join the Atlanta rotation at some point this : season, is seemingly the best power-pitching prospect to come through the : Braves' organization since Smoltz. Hanson被BA認為是聯盟中第四好的新秀，率領著這班小投手們並讓人十分樂觀。這位22歲的右投將可能在季中加入勇士的輪值，並希望成為自老史之後勇士系統中的強力投手。 : "He's a fierce competitor," Hansen said. "I saw Roy Halladay at around the : same age, and I'd compare Hanson to him. They've both got great arms, and when : they get on the mound, they're not going to let [opponents] beat you." "他是位兇猛的競爭者，"Hansen說道。"我看過Roy Halladay在約相同年紀的時候，我把他與Hanson做比較，他們都有傷當好的手臂，當他們站上投手丘時，他們不允許任何人擊敗他們。" : Kris Medlen, a right-hander who pitched with Hansen with Double-A Mississippi : last year, has caught Braves manager Bobby Cox's attention and seems to have a : chance to begin this season in the Atlanta bullpen. But there's also a good : chance that he'll be a part of Triple-A Gwinnett's talented starting rotation. : Some Major League scouts have referred to Medlen as a poor man's Greg Maddux. : The 23-year-old, who stands 5-foot-10 and weighs approximately 190 pounds, : possesses a live fastball, an above-average curve and a plus changeup. Kris Medlen為Hanson去年在2A的戰友，今年接到考爺的邀請並有機會開季時在勇士的牛棚中亮相，但也有可能從3A的先發輪值出發。一些球探認為Medlen是窮人版的老麥。這位23歲的右投，高5尺10吋，重190磅，有著優異的速球、平均以上的曲球以及還可以的變速球。 : "He can drop any pitch he wants on you in any count, and that's what makes him : so special," Cox said of Medlen, who BA tabbed as the organization's best : prospect. "他能夠任意控制著他的投球(不太會翻>"<)，這讓他傷當特別，"考爺這樣評論著Medlen。 : Medlen began fast-tracking toward the Majors when he moved into Mississippi's : rotation midway through last year. Then he truly turned eyes during the Arizona : Fall League, where he registered 25 strikeouts and issued just one walk in 25 : innings. 當Medlen去年加入了2A的先發中段輪值之後，他快速地邁向了大檸檬之路。接著他在 AFL中更進一步，丟出了26k而僅僅在25局中投出一次BB。 : Another special prospect making his way through the Atlanta system is 18-year- : old right-hander Julio Teheran, who received a $850,000 signing bonus when he : signed with the Braves in 2007. A native of Colombia, Teheran possesses a : fastball that has already touched 93 mph and advanced baseball instincts. 另一個正開創他自己人生的道路的則是勇士在2007以850k簽約金簽下的18歲右投 Julio Teheran，土生土長的Colombia人。Teheran有著93mph的速球以及更多的棒球天賦。 : Teheran battled some right shoulder discomfort last year and made just six : appearances for Rookie level Danville. Teheran去年與右肩的病痛對抗因此僅僅在R出賽了6場。 : "He's got a good idea about what he has to do out on that mound," said Hansen, : who will serve as Class A advanced Myrtle Beach's pitching coach this year. : "Somebody taught him some advanced skills at a young age." "他知道當他站上投手丘時他該做啥，"今年將擔任A+的投教Hansen說著，"在他還小時，有人教他一些較進階的技巧。" : Locke and Rohrbough are left-handers who struggled from a statistical : perspective at Class A Rome last year. But both remain highly regarded : prospects. Locke與Rohrbough兩位左投今年都在1A中奮鬥，並且都被高度重視著。 : Locke, who possesses a fastball that has touched 94 mph and an improving hard : curveball, went 5-12 with a 4.06 ERA for Rome. Still the 21-year-old southpaw's : power arm, which produced 113 strikeouts and issued 38 walks in 139 2/3 innings : last year, is highly regarded by scouts. Locke有著94mph的速球以及扎實的曲球，在1A的成績為5勝-12敗，ERA 4.06。但仍為southpaw中的強力手臂，在去年的139 2/3局中送出113k與38BB而被球探高度關注著。 : Rohrbough, who is tabbed the game's 14th-best left-handed prospect, suffered : an offseason left ankle injury that led to some early struggles with Rome last : year. But the 21-year-old left-hander got stronger as the year progressed and : earned an August promotion to Myrtle Beach. Rohrbough被認為是聯盟農場中第14好的左手新秀，由於左踝的傷使得他一開始在1A 有些掙扎，不過這位21歲的左投新秀隨著時間而有所成長並在8月時升至A+。 : Armed with a power fastball and one of the best power curveballs in the : organization, Rohrbough has impressed the Braves during the early days of Minor : League camp. He's starting to show some of the strength he possessed in 2007, : when he registered 96 strikeouts and allowed just 33 hits in 61 combined : innings with Danville and Rome. 有著有力的速球以及優異的曲球，Rohrbough在前些日子的小聯盟營(是這樣翻嗎@@)中的表現令勇士印象深刻，他在2007開始逐漸的發揮他的壓制力，在R與1A的61局投球裡，他送出了96k而只被打了33支安打而已。 : "He looks healthy, and the ball is really coming out of his hand right now," : Braves director of player development Kurt Kemp said. "He's throwing like he : was two years ago." "他看起來像個健康寶寶，而好戲才正要開始呢！"勇士的指導員Kurt Kemp說著，"他投的就像兩年前一樣。" : Chipper Jones has spent the past couple of years campaigning for the Braves : to start drafting more power arms. Courtesy of Hanson, Medlen, Locke, Teheran : and Rohrbough it appears the veteran third baseman's wish has been granted. 老大過去兩年希望勇士多挑些強力手臂，而由Hanson、Medlen、Locke、Teheran 與Rohrbough正是給這位勇士的大當家的禮物。 : "These are power, championship-caliber arms," Hansen said. "It's fun to watch : these guys now, and it's going to be even more exciting to watch them over the : next few years." "這些就是能夠衝擊總冠軍的力量，"Hansen說著，"看著這群小夥子很有意思，而往後數年他們將帶給人們更多的期待與興奮！" : Hansen---------Roy Halladay : Kris Medlen--------poor man's Greg Maddux : Julio Teheran-----18歲有93MPH : Locke and Rohrbough----southpaw's power arm : Rohrbough------ Armed with a power fastball and one of the best power curveballs : in the organization : 這五個能順利長好，投手王國再臨 : http://atlanta.braves.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090314&content_id=3986054 : &vkey=news_atl&fext=.jsp&c_id=atl 第一次翻譯，可能翻得不是很正確，請多見諒與指教<m_m> -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.229.156.125 ※ 編輯: typapa 來自: 61.229.156.125 (03/15 20:35)
