Li-Jen Chu – Catcher
With Francisco Mejia in San Diego and Eric Haase in the big leagues, Chu now
represents the Indians top/only upper level catching prospect. Tommy John
surgery halted the beginning of his career, but he finally played his first
full season in 2017 (he was signed in 2012) and has hit 27 home runs and 44
doubles in the last two seasons combined. While not prodigious, he has great
power for a catcher and doesn’t have the strike out rate of some of the
Indians more typical power hitters. While he isn’t a great defensive
catcher, he is serviceable enough to be a MLB back up if his offense can
create enough value.
在Francisco Mejia去了教士以及Eric Haase上了大联盟之后，朱立人成为印地安人队高阶
小联盟里最佳也是唯一的捕手新秀，TJ手术延缓了他职业生涯的起步，但最终他在2017年
完成生涯第一个完整的职棒球季，过去两个球季合计打出了27发全垒打以及44支二垒安打
，朱立人的力量虽然不算惊人但以捕手来说很不错，而且被三振率比印地安人多数典型的
强打者要好得多（查了一下 去年在1A是17.6% 今年在高阶1A是20.2% 2A是22.8%），虽然
他不是那种守备很好的捕手，但如果打击能够制造出足够的价值，他能在大联盟层级成为
有用的替补
Because of his injury problems, he has only just reached Akron this August at
24 years old after six years in the system and only played 16 games once
there. The AFL should serve as a stepping stone to help get Chu to Columbus
at some point next season.
由于伤痛问题，朱立人一直到今年8月才升上2A并打了16场比赛，此时他已经24岁，在小联
盟待了6个球季了，秋季联盟可以视为朱立人在明年某个时间点登上3A的垫脚石
Yu-Cheng Chang – Short Stop
The Indians most interesting player in the AFL this year will be Yu Chang,
who is heading back for his second run (2016 Mesa Solar Sox). Like Chu, Chang
is a Taiwanese born player although he was signed a year later and has
already spent a full season in Columbus.
张育成会是今年印地安人队在亚历桑纳秋季联盟最有趣的选手，这是他第二次参与AFL，
就跟朱立人一样，张育成来自台湾，虽然他的签约晚了一年，但已经在3A有了一个完整的
球季
Generally known as a bat first, power hitting short stop, Chang made great
strides defensively this year although his power production decreased. While
the trade of Willi Castro and the steep decline of Eric Stamets have greatly
simplified the Indians middle infield situation for the next few years, there
are still many decisions to make regarding who will play third, second and
utility man for the MLB squad. Chang hadn’t played anywhere but short since
his rookie season, but he returned to third for 23 games this year and played
second for the first time, getting in nine games.
张育成一直被认为是个棒子优先，具有长打力量的游击手，他在今年球季防守上进步很多
，不过长打的产量也退步了，送走了Willi Castro加上Eric Stamets今年的大低潮简化了
印地安人队内野中线未来几年的布局，他们需要找出大联盟层级能用的三垒手，二垒手以
及工具人，张育成从新人年开始一直都只有守游击，但他今年也开始练三垒以及二垒
The AFL should both give Chang a chance to bring his offense back up to the
level he is accustomed to as well as give the Indians a chance to see if he
can play the other infield positions well enough to consider him as a utility
man in 2019. This could also be a showcase for other teams to see if they may
be interested in Chang the power hitting short stop, something the Indians won
’t have use of for many years.
秋季联盟给了张育成找回他过往打击手感的机会，也让印地安人队能评估他防守其他内野
位置的状况，是否能在2019球季担任内野工具人，同时这也是其他对张育成有兴趣的队伍
观察他的好机会，毕竟印地安人队在未来几年内并不缺少强打游击手
