http://tinyurl.com/4bhg8h7 Tommy Pham, of, Cardinals Born: March 8, 1988. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-2. Wt.: 180. Drafted.: HS—Las Vegas, 2006 (16th round). Signed by: Manny Guerra. A fresh start in Double-A Springfield gave Pham the career boost that changes in position and return visits to lower levels had not. He blossomed with Springfield last summer, batting .339/.429/.537 in 38 games before an errant pitch hit him on the wrist and left him with a small fracture, ending his season in mid-August. Pham was Nevada's best high school prospect in 2006, starring as a two-way player and signing for $325,000 as a 16th-rounder after signability questions knocked him out of the early rounds. He slogged through the lower levels of the minors and proved too inconsistent at shortstop. His bat, billed as his best tool, also wilted as he batted just .212/.294/.352 in his first four pro seasons. Moved to outfield and maturing into his athleticism, Pham started putting everything together in 2010. He squared up balls more consistently and did a much better job of controlling the strike zone. He still can get pull-conscious and will have to continue to improve his plate coverage. He has fringy power and is more of a doubles threat than a home run hitter. Pham's best pure tool is his plus speed, and he improved his range in center field by taking better routes on balls. His arm is solid. Pham experienced headaches throughout 2010 and may explore surgery to correct a pre-existing eye condition that he wears contacts to address. Once again in the Cardinals' plans, he may return to Double-A to start 2011. 今年成绩有所突破，运动能力很棒，能守中外野，可惜触身球造成手腕骨折提早结束球 季。球季结束後也动了眼睛的手术，希望可以跟Eric Hosmer一样动个眼睛手术就变成 top prospect :) -- Kevin Thomas, rhp, Cardinals Born: July 8, 1986. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-3. Wt.: 215. Drafted.: Stephen F. Austin State, 2008 (33rd round). Signed by: Joe Almaraz. Another of the overlooked gems the Cardinals attempt to uncover each year at smaller colleges, Thomas has proven to be much better than the 6-4, 6.27 record he carried as a senior at Stephen F. Austin State. Signed for $20,000 as a 33rd-round pick in 2008, he broke out last year by going 10-2, 2.27 at high Class A Palm Beach. His ERA would have lead the Florida State League by nearly half a run had he not fallen just short of qualifying. Thomas fires his sinker at 87-92 mph, topping out at 94, and used it to post a nifty 2.94 groundout/airout ratio in 2010. It's his only reliable pitch, as he has a fringy slider and a below-average changeup. With his strong frame, resilient arm and solid mechanics, Thomas has proven durable in a variety of roles. In each of his three pro seasons, he has begun the year as a long reliever and finished it as a starter. After his performance last year, the Cardinals will see how he does starting 2011 in their Double-A Springfield rotation. 又一个红雀从小学校找的球员。局数稍嫌不足排不进FSL排行榜，不过比第一名还少将 近半分。滚飞比2.94，不过也只有速球而已，滑球不好、变速球低於平均。 -- Adron Chambers的虽然是去年的，也顺便补充好了 http://tinyurl.com/48k8d2p Adron Chambers, of, Cardinals Born: Oct. 8, 1986. B-T: L-L. Ht.: 5-10. Wt.: 185. Drafted: Pensacola (Fla.) JC, 2007 (38th round). Signed by: Steve Turco. Chambers used a bus ticket to make an impression on the Cardinals. A premium high school athlete coming out of Pensacola, Fla., he went to Mississippi State as a defensive back and played regularly during his sophomore season before an on-campus incident in 2006. He was involved in an incident with another student in a dormitory and was charged with misdemeanor assault. He was suspended from the football team and withdrew from school, enrolling at Pensacola JC and giving baseball a shot. He then hopped on a Greyhound bus to Memphis for one of St. Louis' predraft workouts. His drive, above-average speed and hitting potential led the Cardinals to draft him in the 38th round in 2007 and sign him for $40,000. Chambers was one of high Class A Palm Beach's most consistent hitters last season, batting .283/.370/.400 out of the leadoff spot and leading the club with 47 walks. He's aggressive on the basepaths and can steal bases on sheer speed, though refining his technique would allow him to swipe more bags and improve his 64 percent success rate from 2009. He has gap power, which he showed by hitting a minor league-best 16 triples last year. Defensively, his good range and solid arm strength allow him to handle all three outfield spots. Chambers will advance to Double-A this season. 原本是美式足球defensive back，大二因施暴而退学。进入JUCO後打棒球，自行前往红 雀选秀前的测试。速度快，还需要磨练跑垒技术。有gap power。BA是说他能守外野三 个位置，不过我有看到Kevin Goldstein说有球探认为他不能守中外野。 网页里还有Maikel Cleto的介绍，有兴趣可以点进去看。 --
