The recipient of a $500,000 signing bonus in June 2013 after a decorated
amateur career in Taiwan, Chang has since blossomed into one of the top
power-hitting shortstops in the Minors while making steady progress through
Cleveland's system. He was a mid- and postseason All-Star with Class A
Advanced Lynchburg at age 20, built on that performance that offseason in the
Arizona Fall League and then finished fourth in the Eastern League in home
runs last season while garnering midseason All-Star honors in his first
Double-A campaign.
Chang's knack for back-spinning the baseball to all fields using a quick,
leveraged swing has long suggested that he would eventually tap into his
above-average raw power. He did just that in 2017, hitting a career-high 24
home runs, up from 13 the previous year, to pace all Minor League shortstops,
while also posting an extra-base hit rate of nearly 55 percent. Chang's game
will always feature some swing-and-miss, and he struck out at a career-high
26 percent clip in Double-A, but the overall approach is solid. He'll never
be much of a basestealing threat despite possessing speed that's slightly
above average.
A shortstop exclusively since the start of 2014, Chang has the athleticism
and requisite tools to stay there. The presence of superstar Francisco Lindor
in Cleveland means he won't, however, and Chang is expected to see increased
reps at other positions going forward. One possibility is a move to third
base, where Chang's strong arm and right-handed power would be clean fits.

内文第二段提到张育成挥棒速度很快,能把球打向场内各个位置
有着高于平均的Raw Power.
2017年打出领先其他游击手的24发HR, 将近55%是长打
但打击型态也偏向swing-and-miss, 也因此被三振率高达26%
而他在垒包上的威胁性也不会太强, 尽管他的速度高于平均
内文第三段则是提到他有很好的体能足以胜任游击手的工作
然而因为MLB有全明星级的F.Lindor, 他未来势必转换守位
转成三垒手是个可能的选项, 因为他强壮的臂力足以胜任
球探报告里也附上这段影片, 展现张育成的长打能力
