BA Top 20 DSL/VSL Prospects From 2012 Manuel Margot, of, Red Sox Age: 18 B-T: R-R Ht.: 5-11 Wt.: 170 Signed: Dominican Republic, 2011 Margot played in the Dominican Prospect League in 2011 and was one of the premium prospects that year for July 2, when he signed with the Red Sox for $800,000. Margot, who is from Villa Altagracia and trained with Franklin Ferreira, had one of the best debuts among last year's signings. Margot has a lean, athletic frame and exciting five-tool potential. He hit well in games for scouts before signing and had little trouble handling DSL pitching. 2011年，Margot在Dominican Prospect League打球，是当时的重要新秀之一。同年的七 月二日红袜以$800K签下来自Villa Altagracia、和Franklin Ferreira一起训练的Margot 。Margot是国际选秀2011年梯次中表现最好的新秀之一。Margot很精瘦，拥有运动员的身 材以及令人期待的五拍子潜力。他在签约前打给球探看的比赛中表现亮眼，但是在进入 DSL後有些不适应那里的球路。 Margot has good bat speed, a line-drive swing and takes pitches on the outer half to the right-center field gap. He has a hitch in his swing that he's worked to smooth out, but he's able to get his hands into hitting position on time, adjusts to pitches on the inner half and is able to manipulate the bat head well, so he doesn't get beat often. Margot mostly has gap power now, but he makes loud contact and should continue to add power. Margot's plus-plus speed is a weapon on the bases (his 33 steals ranked third in the DSL) and in the field, leading DSL outfielders in putouts. He has excellent range, gets good reads off the bat, tracks down balls in the gaps and has a plus arm, so he has all the ingredients to be an outstanding defensive center fielder. Margot的挥棒速度很不错，拥有line-drive swing，能将外角球扛到右外野的空档。他在 挥棒时有点卡卡的，还需要藉一些训练让他的挥棒更顺畅；不过他能及时的将手摆到打击 位置，针对内角球做调整，同时能顺利的控制棒头，所以他不常被投手修理。目前Margot 常常能展现将球打到外野的力量，不过他挥到球时声音很大─应该能长出更大的炮瓦。 Margot的速度则是plus-plus级，在垒上是一大威胁(在DSL有33次盗垒，排名第三)；在所 有DSL的外野手中，制造的出局数更是排名第一。他的守备范围很广，在球离开球棒後能 很清楚的预测出球的去向；当球掉到空档时，他能展现传球臂力─单就防守方面来看， Margot已经具备成为顶尖中外野手需要的条件。 International Reviews: Boston Red Sox By Ben Badler February 11, 2013 Boston Red Sox Top Signing: SS Tzu-Wei Lin, Taiwan, $2.05 million Six-figure signings: RHP Simon Mercedes (Dominican Republic), RHP Jose Almonte (Dominican Republic), SS Wendell Rijo (Dominican Republic), CF Luis Alexander Basabe (Venezuela), 2B Luis Alejandro Basabe (Venezuela), LHP Daniel McGrath (Australia), RHP Heri Quevedo (Dominican Republic). Tzu-Wei Lin The Red Sox were one of the most aggressive teams across the globe in 2012 both before and after July 2. Their top international signing of the year came in June, when they signed 18-year-old Taiwanese shortstop Tzu-Wei Lin for $2.05 million. Lin's bonus is the highest of all-time for an Asian amateur position player and the second-highest bonus ever for an amateur player from Taiwan, behind only the $2.2 million the Rockies spent on righthander Chin-Hui Tsao when he was 18 in 1999. Excluding Cubans, Lin's bonus was the second-highest bonus of the year for an international amateur player after Dominican outfielder Jairo Beras, who signed with the Rangers for $4.5 million. 无论是在2012年七月二日之前还是之後，红袜都是在国际市场上最为积极的球队之一。去 年最重量级的签约是在六月，用$2.05M签下台湾游击手Tzu-Wei Lin(林子伟)。林的签约金 是史上签约金最高的亚洲新秀野手，同时是台湾史上第二高的签约金─仅次於洛矶队在 1999年时签下右投曹锦辉的$2.2M。曹锦辉的价码是当年所有国际新秀中第二高的签约金， 少於游骑兵外野手Jairo Beras的$4.5M。 Lin originally agreed to a $350,000 deal with the Yankees in 2010 when he was 16, but that agreement fell apart. The Yankees performed a status check protocol and MLB had declared Lin a free agent, but the Chinese Taipei Baseball Association threatened to ban Lin from playing or coaching Taiwan if he signed before graduating high school, so the deal was never finalized. 洋基原本在2010年以$350K的签约金签下16岁的林子伟，但是协议破局。洋基曾向大联盟 申请检查林子伟的状态，官方认定林子伟拥有自由球员资格，但是中华棒协要胁如果林子 伟高中没毕业就签约的话终身不得在台湾打球或执教。所以合约并未完成。 Lin, who was represented by the Boras Corporation, was the MVP of the 18U World Championship in 2010 in Thunder Bay, Ont. when he was 16. He led the tournament in batting average, OBP and slugging with a .607/.656/.907 mark in 32 plate appearances over seven games in a prospect-packed tournament that included Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor and Cubs outfielder Jorge Soler among others. 属於Boras Corporation的林子伟，是2010年18U世界冠军的MVP(当时16岁)。他在该锦标 赛中，打击率、上垒率、长打率都是第一名，32PA(7G)中.607/.656/.907─该比赛还有 其他的新秀，如笑脸人的Francisco Lindor以及小熊的Jorge Soler。 After signing, Lin hit .255/.341/.318 in 29 games in the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League and ranked as the GCL's No. 8 prospect, though he missed some time and wasn't at full strength after experiencing soreness in his right knee. There was no structural damage to Lin's knee, so when he was finished in the GCL he went to South Korea in September for the 18U World Championships, where he hit .308/.457/.346 in 35 plate appearances, led his team in OBP and was named the tournament's most outstanding defensive player. He also went 1-for-3 with a hit by pitch in a game in which Japanese flamethrowing ace Shintaro Fujinami threw a two-hit, complete-game shutout. 签约後，林子伟在GCL的29场比赛中打出.255/.341/.318。虽然他缺席一段时间，也因为右 膝疼痛而无法全力打球，但他依然获选为GCL新秀第八名。林子伟的膝盖并没有结构性损伤 ，所以他在打完GCL後(九月)，前往韩国帮中华队打18U锦标赛，35PA中.308/.457/.346， 是全队上垒率最高的球员，并拿下最佳防守奖。他在对上投出二安打、完投完封的日本王 牌火球男藤浪晋太郎(Shintaro Fujinami)的比赛中，1-3、外加一次触身球。 Lin has a small frame at 5-foot-9, 155 pounds, but he's a plus-plus runner with a quick first step. He's a potential above-average hitter with good bat control, strike-zone awareness and an approach that allows him to spray line drives to all fields. Lin doesn't have much power now and it will never be a big part of his game, so his offensive value will come mostly from his on-base skills and speed. Scouts who liked Lin's defense praised his hands and a natural rhythm at shortstop, so he could be an average defender with an average arm. 林子伟的身材较小，5尺9寸、155磅，但他是个plus-plus跑者，第一步出得很快。他也有 成为above-average打者的潜力─优良的球棒控制、对於好球带的警觉心以及能让他将球击 成line drive，打向场上任一处的打击能力。林子伟现在没有多少炮瓦，未来也不会成为 他的招牌─他的进攻价值将是以上垒技巧和速度为主。喜欢林子伟防守面的球探称赞他的 手很棒，阵守游击的节奏不错，所以他是一个拥有average arm的average defender。 Simon Mercedes Boston made another big signing before July 2, landing Dominican righthander Simon Mercedes (video) for $800,000 in March. Mercedes at one point was presenting himself as a 16-year-old named Jeffrey Tapia, but by the summer of 2010 he started going by Simon Mercedes and saying he was 18. After pitching in the Dominican Prospect League all-star game in January 2011, Mercedes signed with the Giants for $400,000. 红袜在在七月二日前又有了一笔重要的签约：$800K签下多明尼加的Simon Mercedes。 Mercedes一度是「16岁的Jeffrey Tapia」，但是在2010年夏天时变成了「18岁的Simon Mercedes」。2011年一月，Mercedes在DPL投完明星赛之後和巨人签约，签约金是$400K。 That deal was never consummated, however, after MLB investigated Mercedes' background and declared him ineligible to sign for one year. The league never announced why Mercedes was penalized, though his punishment was more of a penalty for the Giants than for Mercedes, who doubled his signing bonus once he became eligible to sign last year. The 20-year-old Mercedes signed with the Red Sox using the same Feb. 17, 1992 date of birth he presented to the Giants. After Mercedes signed with Boston, MLB declared his age undetermined, which puts the onus on the signing club of whether to accept the risk that he may be older or walk away from the deal, so the Red Sox elected to continue with the contract. 不过这笔交易并没有完成，因为在大联盟官方调查身家背景後宣布他在一年内不具有签约 资格。大联盟官方不曾透露处罚Mercedes的原因，但其实这个处罚对巨人的伤害较大，因 为他在恢复资格後价格翻倍。「20岁」的Mercedes在和红袜签约时填上的生日是1992年的 2月17日，和前一年跟巨人签约时用的生日一模一样。在红袜跟Mercedes签约後，大联盟 官方宣布他的年龄「未知」，若他的年龄其实比这些还大或是签完约後就走人等等的风险 将由红袜自行承担。红袜选择和Mercedes签约。 Mercedes, who trained with Felix Liriano and Edwin Sabater, is a physical, power pitcher. He has a thick 6-foot-4, 220-pound body with a fastball he can get up to 96 mph. He's also flashed an above-average breaking ball at times, and with his huge hands, he's shown some feel for a changeup. Mercedes has quite a few things to smooth out in his rigid delivery and is still more of a thrower than a pitcher. If he can't iron out the rough edges in his game, he could profile as a power reliever. The contract approval process prevented Mercedes from making his pro debut last year, but he should pitch for one of Boston's U.S. affiliates in 2012. 由Felix Liriano和Edwin Sabater训练的Mercedes是一位强力投手。这位6尺4寸、220磅 、身材厚实的投手是个快速直球能飙到96mph的火球男。他常常能飙出above-average等级 的变化球，并且因为Mercedes的手够大，他很会投changeup。Mercedes刚硬的投球方式还 有一些需要调整的地方─目前跟投手比起来，他比较像是发球机。如果他无法处理问题， 他将会成为速球派的牛棚投手。合约的认证程序让Mercedes在去年迟迟无法出赛，但他今 年应该能顺利的在本土的小联盟出赛。 Jose Almonte On July 2, Boston's most expensive international signing was Dominican righthander Jose Almonte for $610,000. It probably didn't hurt the Red Sox that Almonte, like Mercedes, also trained with Liriano, as well Rafael De Leon (known as "Batata"). Almonte, who turned 17 in September, doesn't throw as hard as Mercedes but has an easier delivery. Almonte has already added around 15 pounds to his signing weight (around 6-foot-2, 185 pounds) and has a fastball that's mostly 88-91 mph and touches 92. He has clean arm action, smooth mechanics and projection to add more velocity. Almonte has shown good feel for his changeup. It's his second-best pitch right now, as his curveball has its moments but still needs a lot of work. He will most likely begin his career in the DSL. 七月二日为止，红袜最贵的国际新秀是多明尼加籍的右投Jose Almonte，$610K。Almonte 跟Mercedes一样，都是接受Liriano和Rafael De Leon的训练。九月将满17岁的Almonte没 办法像Mercedes那样用力丢球，但是Almonte的投球姿势较为轻松。 Almonte现在的体重已经比签约时(6尺2寸、185磅)多了15磅，速球球速大约落在88-91mph ，最高到达92mph。他的挥臂动作简洁，动作也很流畅；因此，他的球速应该还能再高一 些。Almonte投changeup的感觉不错，是他第二优的球种；他的曲球有时也很棒，不过这 部分还需要多多磨练。他开季时应该会在DSL。 Wendell Rijo Dominican shortstop Wendell Rijo (video) signed for a tick less money ($575,000) than Almonte, but several teams considered Rijo the superior prospect and he could end up a bargain. Rijo's price tag took a hit when he injured his knee in March while in the United States for the DPL's spring training tour. The injury, later diagnosed as a torn ACL, prevented Rijo from playing thereafter. He signed on July 7 and had surgery soon after. 多明尼加的游击手Wendell Rijo的签约金稍微比Almonte少一点($575K)，但是一些球队认 为Rijo是更优的新秀，或许是一大偷。Rijo价格下滑的原因是：三月时他在DPL移训美国 的春训中伤到膝盖。进一步检查发现是前十字韧带(ACL)拉伤，後来就无法打球了。七月 七日签约後马上就去动手术。 Rijo, who turned 17 in September, is from La Romana and trained with Victor Brus. He's also the son of Dodgers scout Rafael Rijo, which is evident in Rijo's baseball IQ. Rijo grew up around the ballpark and was playing games at an early age. Despite his size, which some scouts believe is a generous 5-foot-11, Rijo routinely performed well in the DPL and in other environments against live pitching. He has a good eye at the plate, an advanced approach to hitting, quick hands and a sound righthanded swing. His size may limit his power projection, but he has surprising juice for his size and routinely squares up the ball for hard line drives. 来自La Romana、接受Victor Brus训练的Rijo在九月时将满17岁。Rijo的父亲是道奇队球 探Rafael Rijo─很显然的直接影响了Rijo的棒球智商。Rijo从小就生活在棒球场附近， 很小就开始打棒球了。虽然球探们认为他的身高会长到5尺11寸，但他在DPL中的表现一直 很好，在其他地方的live pitching中也有很好的表现。他有不错的选球眼、较优的打级技 巧、快速挥棒的手以及很棒的挥棒(右打)。他的身材大小可能会限制他在力量上的发展， 虽然他的身材会限制他的炮瓦，但是他惊人的爆发力、频繁良好的挥棒使他常常能击中 球心以至於造成 line drive。 Rijo will start his career at shortstop, but many scouts see him as a future second baseman because he doesn't have a great arm. He's a plus runner with solid hands and has advanced fundamentals, as he recognizes situations and knows where to position himself both pre-pitch and on relays. Rijo spent quite a bit of time in Fort Myers already and is expected to be back there for spring training with no physical restrictions. Given his present ability, he might be advanced enough to skip the DSL and start his career in the GCL. Rijo会以游击手身分出发，不过许多球探认为他的传球能力不够优，未来会变成二垒手。 他的跑步速度不错、手部力量不差；也拥有较优的基础，能清楚了解状况，每次在投手投 球前後都知道自己该站哪里。Rijo已经在Fort Myers待上不短的时间了，春训时应该不会 有健康方面的问题。考虑到他之前的能力，或许他能直接跳过DSL，直接在GCL开启Rijo的 棒球生涯。 -- 拖稿拖了一个月XD -- "HARD WORK BEATS TALENT WHEN TALENT FAILS TO WORK HARD." --
