A Minor Review of ‘09: Atlanta Braves
by Marc Hulet - November 11, 2009 ‧ Comments (6) - Share this Article
Prospect ranking season is here. Top 10 lists will be arriving shortly and
in preparation for that, we present an intro series looking at some of the
players who deserve mentioning but probably will not be appearing on
their teams’ Top 10 lists. The series is back for a second year.
Atlanta Braves
The Graduate: Jordan Schafer, OF
A lot was expected from the 23-year-old Schafer in ‘09, but he hit
just .204/.313/.287 in 167 at-bats and ended up back in the minors. His 63
strikeouts in 167 at-bats (37.7 K%) were a huge issue, but he did post a
walk rate of 13.9 BB%. His contact rate of 64.6% was well below the
league average of 80.5%. Defensively, he had some issues with his range 
in center field and, overall, he posted a WAR of -0.3. Schafer could very 
well need some more seasoning in triple-A before he’s ready for another
shot at a full-time role in the Majors.
大家对23岁的Schafer都有很高的期望,但是他在167个大联盟AB
里面只打出了.204/.313/.287的成绩。他的63K (37.7 K%)是很大的问
题,虽然他的13.9 BB%还算不错。他64.6%的contact率远低于联盟
平均的80.5%。防守方面来说,他在中外野的range有点不够,总体
而言,他的WAR是 -0.3。Schafer在升上大联盟之前,有可能需要更
多在3A的时间来磨练自己。
The Riser: Adam Milligan, OF
An injury prevented the ‘08 draft pick from making his pro debut prior to
the ‘09 season. Milligan rose all the way to high-A in his first full season
and he just narrowly missed the Top 10 list for the Braves. The outfielder
hit .345/.393/.589 in 197 low-A at-bats and received a six-game trial in
high-A, as well. Milligan, 21, displayed intriguing left-handed power
(.244), but he needs to be a little more patient at the plate with a walk rate
of 5.7 BB%. On the year, he held his own against southpaws with an .870
OPS, but he was even better against right-handers: 1.013 OPS. Milligan’s
debut numbers were very impressive, but he was aided by a .394 BABIP.
这位08年的新秀因为伤势的关系,今年才打出第一年的职业球季。
他第一年就一路直升到high-A,而且他只差一点点就可以进入Braves
的top 10了。这个外野手在197个low-A的AB中打出了.345/.393/.589
的成绩,另外也被升到high-A打了六场比赛。今年21岁的Milligan
表现出了令人好奇的左打power (.244),但是他的5.7 BB%告诉我们
他在打击区需要更多的耐心。他对左打打的不错,有 .870的OPS,
但是对右打打的更好,打出了1.013的OPS。Milligan的成绩非常令
人惊艳,但是那 .394的BABIP也是他如此成功的原因之一。
The Tumbler: Cole Rohrbough, LHP
Rohrbough looked to be on the fast-track after solid numbers in his first
two minor league seasons. Things fell apart a bit for him in ‘09 as he
allowed 129 hits in 117 innings of work in high-A. His ERA was 5.77 but
his FIP was just 4.34. He posted a walk rate of 3.69 BB/9 and a strikeout
rate of 7.69 K/9. Rohrbough struggled with his command and allowed too
many fat pitches, which resulted in an increased HR/9 rate to 0.92. The
Braves could be aggressive with Rohrbough, 22, and move him up to
double-A in ‘10 given that his numbers were not quite as bad as they
looked on the surface. He features an 89-93 mph fastball, curveball and
change-up.
Rohrbough在连续两季表现不错之后,在09年碰上了小低潮。他在
high-A的117局投球之中,被打了129支安打,他的ERA高达5.77,
但是他的FIP只有4.34。他的BB/9只有3.69,K/9也有7.69。他今
年的控球不是很好,投了太多红中球,造成他的HR/9涨到0.92。Braves
可以小赌一把,把22岁的Rohrbough明年直接升到2A,毕竟他的成
绩并没有如表面上难看。他有一颗89-93mph的速球、一颗曲球和一颗change-up。
The ‘10 Sleeper: Dimaster Delgado, LHP
Another left-handed pitcher, Delgado does not throw as hard as
Rohrbaugh. His fastball currently sits at 86-90 mph but he projects to add
velocity as he fills out. The southpaw also features a curveball and
change-up. In ‘09 at low-A ball, Delgado allowed 89 hits in 99.2 innings
of work, while showing good control with a walk rate of 2.35 BB/9. He
also posted a strikeout rate of 9.39 K/9 and did a nice job of limiting the
home-run ball (0.36 HR/9). If he can add some velo and/or improve his
ground-ball rate, Delgado could see his numbers improve even more.
又一个左投,Delgado没有Rohrbaugh的球速,他的速球大约是
86-90mph,但是一般来说我们预期他在成长后球速也会增加。他的球
路也是曲球跟change-up。今年在low-A,他在99.2局的投球中被击
出89支安打,同时表现出了良好的控球(2.35 BB/9)。他也有很棒的
9.39 K/9跟0.36 HR/9。如果他的速球可以再快个几英里,然后让对
手打出更多滚地球的话,他的成绩可能还会更好。
Bonus: Erik Cordier, RHP
Highlighted in the ‘08 series as a potential breakout candidate after
returning from surgery, Cordier struggled with his control in ‘09. At
high-A ball, the right-hander posted a walk rate of 5.50 BB/9 while
allowing 115 hits in 121.0 innings. His strikeout rate was just 6.55 and his
stuff has not come all the way back to its pre-surgery form. Although he
posted a 3.87 ERA, his FIP was 5.20. Cordier, a former Royals prospect,
will hopefully continue to show improvements in ‘10.
在08年从手术中归来,被看好有一个突破年的Cordier在09年丧失
了他的控球。在high-A的121局投球中,他被击出了115支安打,
但是他的BB/9却高达5.50,他的K/9也只有6.55,而且他的stuff还
没有彻底回复到手术前的状态。虽然他的ERA只有3.87,但是他的
FIP却是5.20。身为前皇家新秀的Cordier,在10年希望能够表现出一些进步。
====================

作者: ajburnett (The go-to guy)   2008-01-15 19:41:00
