Pirates Acquire Kyle Lobstein
By Steve Adams | December 21, 2015 at 1:41pm CST
The Pirates announced that they have acquired left-hander Kyle Lobstein from
the Tigers in exchange for cash considerations.The Tigers had designated the
26-year-old for assignment last Friday in order to clear a spot on the roster
for newly signed utility man Mike Aviles.
Since making his Major League debut with the Tigers in 2014, Lobstein has had
a fairly significant role with the club, totaling 103 innings across 20
appearances, 17 of which came out of the rotation. His results haven’t been
great — a 5.33 ERA, 5.2 K/9, 3.2 BB/9 — but he has capably soaked up
innings as the Detroit rotation battled through injuries. He’s struggled due
to an inability to miss bats, as evidenced by the low strikeout rate and the
fact that he’s yielded 113 hits in those 103 innings.
While there are certainly some unimpressive elements there, Lobstein could be
effective in a different role. He’s displayed the ability to throw multiple
innings as a reliever, and lefties have batted just .234/.307/.321 against
him over the course of his relatively brief career. The Pirates (and perhaps
other clubs, as well) may have been drawn to that trait and been intrigued by
Lobstein’s 3.19 FIP and 3.41 xFIP against left-handed pitching, believing
him capable of working as a relief option. His 49.7 percent ground-ball rate
undoubtedly piqued Pittsburgh’s interest as well, as the Bucs have shown an
affinity for pitchers that can keep the ball on the ground. And, his superior
Triple-A numbers — 4.08 ERA, 7.8 K/9, 2.9 BB/9 in 236 innings — may simply
have made him an appealing depth option for the Pirates, especially when
weighed against the minimal cost of acquisition.
Lobstein will land in what appears to be a favorable situation. The Pirates
have had a good bit of success in elevating the stock of newly acquired
pitchers in recent seasons, and the club’s aggressive infield shifting will
mesh nicely with his ground-ball tendencies should Lobstein log significant
time in the Majors in 2016 and beyond. He’s totaled just over one year of
Major League service time, so the Pirates could conceivably control him
through the 2020 season if he establishes himself as a consistent Major
Leaguer in some capacity.
从老虎那边捡来左投Kyle Lobstein
去年成绩5.33ERA 5.2K/9 3.2BB/9
还有在103局中只被击出113只安打
海盗看上他的被左打0.234/0.307/0.321
以及49.7%的滚地球率(内野准备皮绷紧?)
如果改造(?)成功
可以使用到2020年
