05. Robbie Ray, lhp Born: Oct. 1, 1991. B-T: L-L. Ht.: 6-2. Wt.: 170. Drafted: HS—Brentwood, Tenn., 2010 (12th round). Signed by: Paul Faulk. Background: Ray first made a name for himself by flashing mid-90s heat on the high school showcase circuit, but he pitched mostly in the 87-91 mph range over his first three pro seasons. But his velocity jumped in 2013, and his prospect status jumped with it. He ranked as the No. 16 prospect in the high Class A Carolina League, and he more than held his own as a 21-year-old in the Double-A Eastern League following a midseason promotion. 背景： Ray 是以高中巡回赛时投出mid-90的速球成名，但他头三个职业球季 通常落在 87-91。球速在2013年跃升也藉此拉高新秀等级。在A+联盟 Carolina League排名16，今年21岁的他年中升到2A也能稳定表现。 Scouting Report: Ray attacks hitters primarily with his heater, which ranges from 91-96 mph, averaging about 93. His arm still drags at times, causing his release point and command to be inconsistent, but he is a good athlete with a loose arm, prompting scouts to project his command as at least average. His changeup came along nicely in 2013, showing flashes of being a slightly above-average pitch in the low 80s. He throws a short slurve that ranges from 74-79 mph, and too many of them are tumblers with loose spin, rating as 35 pitches. His best ones are average, but the pitch still has a long way to go. 球探报告： Ray主攻打者靠的是速度91-96，平均约93的火球。他的手臂动作有时 不算顺畅，影响到出手点及控球无法固定，但他有很好的能力控制上 臂，使球探看好他控球至少可达到平均等级。今年变速球感觉不赖， 略高於平均，速度约 low-80。少量使用的滑曲球速度有74-79，因为 多数变化球都需要运用旋转，35球是有效用量。最好的武器都有平均 水准，但还很有得练。 The Future: Ray’s plus fastball, athleticism and durable frame give him a chance to be a mid-rotation starter if he can develop his breaking ball. That remains a significant question mark, but he’ll continue to work on the pitch as a 22-year-old in Double-A next year. 未来性： Ray 的运动能力与耐力加上够棒快速球能帮助他站稳中间轮值，只要 他精进自己的变化球。这是最主要的问题，明年22岁的他会持续在2A 努力。 --
