Shaffer’s career thus far has not exactly gone according to plan. This season, Shaffer has hit to just a .254/.309/.404 line with 33 doubles, 11 homers, 71 RBI and 6 stolen bases (without getting caught) in 506 plate appearances. Shaffer has struck out 105 times, not an exorbitant amount (20.6 % of his plate appearances), and we knew he was going to strike out, but what has really been surprising was that he has walked just 34 times (6.8%). Shaffer was known for his plate discipline at Clemson, but it seems know that maybe his walks were more a product of patience than pitch recognition and that doesn’t work even at High-A. Luckily, though, Shaffer has adjusted since the start of June, managing a much more reasonable 61-26 mark in 309 PA ’s. Shaffer’s power hasn’t really come out yet either, but the Rays have to hope that once he gets his pitch recognition under control, it will come out in earnest as well. In the Arizona Fall League, Shaffer, still just 22, will keep working on his pitch recogntion and harnessing his power in games, and if he can break through on that, he could be primed for a huge 2013. Shaffer may also get some time in the corner outfield spots as the Rays try to prepare him for his future position in the major leagues. Shaffer made strides in the second half of his first full season, and the Rays hope he can turn the corner for good in the Arizona Fall League. 光芒在'12年第一轮选中Shaffer，并期待这位出色的大学打者可以在小联盟里快 步晋升。可惜Shaffer目前的成长不如预期。这季的506个打数只交出.254/.309/.404 ，33支二垒安打，11发全垒打，71分打点，6 次盗垒成功的成绩单。 Shaffer本季吞 下105次三振 ，不算过高的数字（K% 20.6%），毕竟他本来就是容易被三振的打者， 但令人不解的是他整季只选到34次保送（BB% 6.8%）。Shaffer过去在Clemson可是以 出色选球知名的打者，但他的保送似乎更多来自於他的耐心而不是球路辨识，而且目 前还无法适应高阶1A的挑战。所幸，Shaffer从六月以後开始进行修正，309个打数中 ，K/BB来到更为合理的 61/26。他的长打能力也还没展现出来，但光芒相信一旦磨练 出辨识球路的能力，长打能力也能更完整的展现在成绩上。在AFL，22岁的Shaffer必 须持续磨练球路辨识的技巧，并学会如何把长打力量结合在比赛中，也许他会获得在 边角外野出赛的机会，这个守位很可能会帮助他更早站上大联盟。 Shaffer下半季有 显着的进步，光芒希望他可以在AFL展现更强大的反弹力道。 ------ Ryan Brett, 2B (Mongomery) As we keep talking about, Ryan Brett has had himself one of the craziest seasons anyone has ever seen in 2013. The 21 year old Brett was suspended at the end of last season for methamphetamine after taking a pill to try to break out of a slump, but that was only the start of his troubles as he proceeded to have kidney and sports hernia surgeries before the 2013 season even started. Since taking the field in mid-May however, Brett has put together better than anyone could have dreamed. In 324 plate appearances between High-A and Double-A, Brett has a .303/.358/.458 line with 17 doubles, 4 triples, 7 homers, 38 RBI, and 25 stolen bases in 32 attempts. He has struck out 39 times while walking 22 times. Three main issues with him game have held Brett back over the years: pitch recognition, a lack of power, and poor defense at second base. This season, though, he has started to be more selective at the plate, and that has also allowed him to find more pitches to drive and hit for solid power. He remains a tad overaggressive at the plate, something Double-A pitchers have exploited in his brief time at the level, but with more work, Brett could end up being an interesting table-setter in a big league lineup and at least 1o t0 15 homer power. On the defensive side, meanwhile, Brett has already improved tremendously, working on his footwork and actions to become an average defender with a chance to be more. Brett is principally in the Arizona Fall League just to get at-bats after the suspension and injuries, but he will continue focusing on his patience, power, and defense with the hope that he won’t stay in Double-A long when he returns there next season. 如同我们一直讨论的，2013年对Ryan Brett来说是他职业生涯最疯狂的赛季，21 岁的 Brett上季因为服用甲基安非他命被得到禁赛的惩处，但这只是麻烦的开始，开 季前，还分别还动了肾脏和疝气手术。然而，就在他五月中旬开始上场後，他的表现 出乎意料的好。在高阶1A和AA的324个打数中，Brett交出.303/.358/.458的打击三围 ，17支二垒安打，7轰，38分打点，32次盗垒尝试成功25次，K/BB是出色的39/22。他 上了大联盟可能会成为一位出色的一、二棒打者（table-setter，很有趣的用字，指 为中心棒次制造打点机会的打者），每年交出10到15轰的成绩。防守端的进步非常显 着，不论是脚步还是反应都有平均水平，而且还有成长的机会。Brett在AFL出赛的目 的主要是补足因为禁赛和伤病缺少的打数，但他会持续磨练选球、长打和防守能力， 期待他明年重回光芒体系，不会在AA待上太长时间是我们的期待。 ------ Curt Casali, C (Montgomery) No one in the Rays organization has managed nearly as good of a season as Curt Casali. Casali, a 24 year old acquired from the Tigers at the end of spring training, has hit to a .311/.391/.481 line in 307 plate appearances between High-A and Double-A including a crazy .381/.463/.600 line in 123 Double-A PA’s. He has hit 14 doubles and 10 homers, driven in 52, and managed a 46-34 strikeout to walk ratio. Casali has truly had an unbelievable season. But where does he go from here? The Arizona Fall League will be a major deciding factor as the Rays try to figure that out. Casali has achieved his success in a pretty small sample, especially at Double-A (just 123 PA’ s), and he clearly is not this good. Casali is interesting as a catcher with good patience and a little pop. He hits lefties extremely well, something that could be enough for him to land him a spot in the Rays’ catching mix as some point within the next two years, while not being totally helpless against righties either. But as just a decent all-around hitter, his defense is going to be very important, and he still has more work to do. Casali doesn ’t have a great arm and is not the most athletic receiver (although he does frame the ball well), and he has to get up to par defensively if the Rays are ever going to consider him a real starting option. Casali has started to become a real big league option for the Rays after his big season. Now let’s see if he take the necessary steps in the Arizona Fall League to keep that the case. 光芒农场里没有人拥有比Curt Casali更好的球季了，24岁的 Casali在今年春训 期间才被光芒从老虎交易过来（送出的 Kyle Lobstein，今年的成绩很亮眼，也会参 加AFL），今年在高阶1A和AA的307个打数交出.311/.391/.481的打击三围，包括14支 二垒安打，10发全垒打，52分打点，K/BB是不错的46/34。 Casali的确拥有不错的球 季，但他最後能成长到什麽程度呢？这是光芒想透过 AFL知道的，Casali已经在小样 本中取得成功，但很明显没这麽出色。他是一位有耐心、有点长打能力的捕手，左投 杀手，这个特色足以让光芒在接下来两年把他放进捕手群中，同时他对右投手也有一 定的打击实力。作为一位平均的全方位打击者，他的防守就显得格外重要，而他仍然 还有很多值得改进的地方。Casali臂力并不出色，运动能力也不出色（虽然接捕能力 很棒。），如果想成为光芒未来的先发捕手，至少在防守端要有平均水准才行。在优 异的赛季之後，Casali已经被光芒视为可能的大联盟球员。现在，让我们一起观察他 是否在AFL取得足够的成长。 ------ Todd Glaesmann, OF (Montgomery) Todd Glaesmann may very well have the best combination of raw tools in the entire Rays system. In 2012, he finally started showing it, managing a .285/.336/.493 line with 25 doubles, 7 triples, 21 homers, 93 RBI, and 8 stolen bases in 540 plate appearances on his way to the Rays’ Minor League Player of the Year award. But this season, it’s his flaws that have stood out more than his strengths as he has slipped to a .239/.290/.376 line with 25 doubles, 11 homers, 52 RBI, and 6 stolen bases in 507 plate appearances. Glaesmann’s issue becomes pretty obvious once we include the big stats we left out: his strikeouts and walks. This year, Glaesmann has just a 108-26 strikeout to walk ratio, and even in his breakout 2012, he struck out 124 times against just 30 walks. Glaesmann has never had great pitch recognition, and an aggressive approach at the plate only makes things worse. But the Rays are hoping that something can click as they send him to the Arizona Fall League. Glaesmann, 22, features all five tools, showing tremendous bat speed, above-average power, solid speed even as he has filled out to 6’4〃, 220, good fielding in right field, and an extremely strong arm. If he can find enough plate discipline, he will use that package of abilties to be a starting corner outfielder in the big leagues and maybe even a star. If not, there is still enough talent for Glaesmann to possibly carve out a career as a 4th outfielder. Glaesmann has always seen the ball better against lefties, and he is strong enough in the outfield to play centerfield on an occasional basis. Glaesmann was an upside play from the start, and it has not exactly worked out yet except for that 2012 season. But Glaesmann still has a strong chance of being a big league contributor, and the Rays hope that the AFL can be where he starts at least the minor breakthrough he needs to be a backup. Todd Glaesmann的综合能力可能是农场里最好的，2012年他用.285/.336/.493， 25支二垒安打，7支三垒安打，21支全垒打，93分打点，8次盗垒成功的成绩单支持了 这个说法，同时也赢得光芒农场年度最佳球员的殊荣。但他这季在打击上的缺陷一览 无疑，.239/.290/.376的打击三围，25支二垒安打，11发全垒打，52分打点和 6次盗 垒成功。 Glaesmann的缺陷非常明显，就是三振和保送。这季的K/BB是108/26，就算 是破茧而出的2012也是124/30。他辨识球路的能力始终不佳，过度积极的挥击反而让 事情变得更糟，但光芒希望这些问题能在AFL看到改善的可能。22岁的Glaesmann是位 五工具的好手，惊人的挥棒速度，水准之上的长打能力，虽然身材高大，但速度也很 不错，在右外野的防守很稳定，他具备在大联盟成为先发边角外野手的天赋，甚至可 能成为明星。退而求其次，他依旧有机会成为四号外野手。 Glaesmann在面对左投手 的选球问题没这麽严重，偶尔还可以担任中外野手。他有成为固定先发的实力，但除 了去年，他的成绩还无法说明这一切，光芒希望 AFL的经历可以帮助他至少成为一位 替补外野手。 --
