又一個新同學 - Wes Littleton


前幾天又用 PTBNL 從 Texas Rangers 交易來另一個右手中繼投手 Wes Littleton,從照片可以看到他算是側投,放球點比 Masterson 還要低,也找到一篇他的 scouting report:

Littleton is a sidearm reliever who is especially tough on righty batters. His fastball, whether two-seam or four-seam, has velocity around 90 MPH and good movement either sinking or rising. His slider moves almost as much as a curve, sweeping away from the righty batters. like most sidearmers, his style convinced the decision-makers that he was better suited to work from the pen. Littleton depends on getting lots of groundballs with his sinker and slider and thus benefits from having a good defense behind him. He can be good as a middle reliever who comes in to get a groundball double play, or as a setup man.

看起來他的功用和 Masterson 極度相似,但是他在 Rangers 農場歷年都不算是 top 10 prospect 等級的人物,等級應該比 Masterson 差一點,我有點預感是 Masterson 可能被拿出去交易捕手,接下來就看我的預感是否正確?

條子素來不喜歡 Bowden,
如果是要跟他們換主菜應是 Masterson 無疑,
但他們還要求配菜,
這部份就比較傷腦筋了,
不出不給換但出愈好虧愈多....
當初幾乎免費送了個 Beltre 現在怎麼不給點折扣:p

我認為 Bowden 會怎樣還很難說, 他曾是高中名投, 當初他的 ceiling 被認為要高過 Masterson

Masterson 如果剛出道就被訂為 righty-specialist 似乎又太可惜了

會不會這時把 Masterson 換給缺先發的球隊 ?

低肩側投在大聯盟一向不是很好混
被強打者打好玩的
Littleton恐怕在紅襪待不了太久

Masterson應該當先發用,紅襪先發也沒有多到非交易不可

Salt也沒有Tek的配球
不如抓3A的上來
