Re: [情報] Tejada to Astros!!!
THT對這幾隻新秀的評論
What do we need to know about the prospects going back to the Orioles?
Chris Constancio:
A very thin farm system just got thinner, but it's doubtful
that the Astros surrendered any future stars. Troy Patton is the top prospect
in this group; he's a lefty with a track record of very good control. A late
draft pick that the Astros paid good money to lure away from the University
of Texas in 2004, Patton has watched his strikeout rate drop considerably
over the past year even though he throws hard and has good stuff. If he
doesn't miss more bats then he is nothing more than a back of the rotation
starter at this point, but his upside is considerable.
Albers' stuff is probably just as good as Patton, and he is only a year
removed from being the Texas League Pitcher of the Year. He has suffered from
below-average command and control throughout his career, however. I view him
as a usable middle relief arm going forward.
I think Costanzo is a bit overrated and underrated in different ways. I think
his power potential is overrated by many. He was second in the Eastern League
with 27 home runs in 2007, but he is an extreme pull hitter who benefited
from a very hitter-friendly context at Reading. I think his on-base skills
are often underrated. He struggles to make contact, but he did improve in
that respect during the second half of the 2007 season and has always walked
a lot so I hold out hope that he could demonstrate at least average on-base
skills in the major leagues.
There are some questions about his ability to stay at third base, and he
obviously isn't of much value if limited to first base/designated hitter
duties. For what it's worth, my play-by-play zone-based fielding metric had
him almost exactly average among Double-A third basemen in 2007.
