[情報] Cleveland Indians Top 20 Prospects for 2011
Cleveland Indians Top 20 Prospects for 2011 by John Sickels
1) Lonnie Chisenhall, 3B, Grade B+: I think he will be a solid regular, but
not a superstar.
2) Alex White, RHP, Grade B+: A quality inning-eater at worst, and could
develop into a genuine ace if all goes well.
3) Jason Kipnis, 2B, Grade B+: Love the bat, and glove should be at least
average with a bit more time.
4) Drew Pomeranz, LHP, Grade B+: Could be Number One on this list a year from
now as a power lefty and possible future ace.
5) Nick Weglarz, OF, Grade B: Has always drawn walks, power coming along, can
he stay healthy?
6) Jason Knapp, RHP, Grade B: Has B+/A- talent, but concerns about durability
and command worry me enough to keep him at a Grade B for now.
7) Joe Gardner, RHP, Grade B: Another guy with a power sinker, should chew
innings.
8) LeVon Washington, OF, Grade B-: Like the tools, but not sure about the
refinement yet. Could rank much higher next year.
9) Nick Hagadone, LHP, Grade B-: Could also rank much higher if command
issues get better.
10) Tony Wolters, SS, Grade B-: Can he stay at shortstop? Indians think so,
others aren't sure. Should hit.
11) Chun-Hsiu Chen, C, Grade B-: Taiwanese catcher had breakthrough '10
season.
12) Kyle Blair, RHP, Grade B-: One of my favorite pitchers from the 2011
draft.
13) Bryce Stowell, RHP, Grade B-: My favorite of the huge corps of promising
minor league relievers gathered by Cleveland.
14) Cord Phelps, 2B, Grade C+: Overshadowed by Kipnis, but could get to the
majors before him and has useful skills.
15) Austin Adams, RHP, Grade C+: Very live arm, high upside, made a lot of
progress last year.
16) Tyler Holt, OF, Grade C+: Looks like a steal to me as 10th round pick.
17) Scott Barnes, LHP, Grade C+: He pitched better than his 5.22 ERA in
Double-A indicates, and looked good in the Arizona Fall League.
18) Jordan Henry, OF, Grade C+: Loads of speed, gets on base, lacks power,
fourth outfielder?
19) Vinnie Pestano, RHP, Grade C+: Should be a very useful relief pitcher.
The Indians have a ton of these guys.
20) Zach Putnam, RHP, Grade C+: Another good bullpen arm.
21) Matt Packer, LHP, Grade C+: Could rank a lot higher, had a great year.
22) Felix Sterling, RHP, Grade C+: Interesting rookie ball pitcher with
upside potential.
23) Rob Bryson, RHP, Grade C+: Here's another live bullpen arm.
24) Josh Judy, RHP, Grade C+: Another good bullpen arm.
25) Corey Kluber, RHP, Grade C+: Possible fifth starter or long reliever.
26) Chen Lee, RHP, Grade C+: Another good minor league reliever.
OTHERS OF NOTE: Robbie Aviles, RHP; Cory Burns, RHP; Kelvin De La Cruz, LHP;
Jared Goedert, 3B; Preston Guilmet, RHP; T.J. House, LHP; Alex Lavisky, C;
Zach McAllister, RHP; T.J. McFarland, LHP; Alexander Perez, RHP; Bryan Price,
RHP; Josh Rodriguez, INF; Hector Rondon, RHP; Giovanni Soto, LHP; Tyler
Sturdevant, RHP; Jess Todd, RHP.
The Indians have a huge group of C+ prospects, especially potential relief
arms. I spent a couple of hours trying to rank all these guys, and finally
just decided to I had to get the list out. You can make a case for most of
the C+ guys to rank in the top 15, but of course you can't rank them ALL in
the top 15.
The system is obviously rich in pitching; you have White and Pomeranz as
possible rotation anchors, as well as Knapp if he can stay healthy. Gardner
and Blair can be inning-eaters. There is loads of material for the bullpen.
What the system lacks is impact hitting. Chisenhall, Kipnis, and Weglarz
should all be productive regulars, but aren't franchise players. Washington
and Wolters are a long way off.

然而實際上發生的卻是第三種.....
