212 Jon Gaston OF Jr. L-R 6-0 206
Arizona Boise, Idaho Giants ’05 (20) 10/13/1986
SCOUTING REPORT (3/1):
Gaston, an Idaho high school product, could be a significant draft
selection in June but may be almost an afterthought on his own team
as Arizona has a deep, talented roster. He has all the tools scouts
look for in a corner outfielder with speed, arm strength and the
ability to hit with wood from the left side—both for power and average.
As a sophomore, he hit .319-6-33. He’s played regularly in right field
for the Wildcats the last two years but wouldn’t feel out of place in
center. The knock on Gaston is his size. He’s listed at 6-feet, but
may actually be closer to 5-11. He overcomes his lack of size with a
strong, powerful frame. He showed a lot of power with wood in the fall,
though his power didn’t evolve last summer in the Cape Cod League
before he was sent home for disciplinary reasons. Scouts say if Gaston
can produce big power and stolen base numbers this spring, he could be
a third-to fifth-rounder; otherwise, he probably falls in the sixth- to
10th-round range.
Gaston
是愛德華高中的畢業生,他可能是在選秀會上受到注目的一個新秀,雖然他在亞利
桑那那群充滿天份的隊友中並不是非常亮眼. 他滿足所有球探隊左右外野手的要
求條件,速度,臂力,和木棒的左打能力(不論是power或是維持高打擊率). 大二
他留下了.319 6HR 33RBI的成績. 他過去兩年都擔任隊上的右外野手,不過偶
而客串一下中外野. 他最大的劣勢在他的身高,資料上是寫6呎不過事實上可能只
有5呎11吋. 不過他強壯的體格克服了他身高的劣勢. 雖然在夏天CCL的時候在
他因為紀律問題被送回家之前沒留下好成績,但他在秋天的時候展現出驚人的木棒
打擊力量. 球探表示如果他今年春天可以展現出他的power和盜壘能力,有機會在
第三到五輪被選上,否則他會掉到5-10輪.

UPDATE (5/15):
Gaston did little to improve his draft position this season until a
late-season surge at the plate lifted his average to .307 (through mid-May).
He also had 11 homers and 12 stolen bases, but his 42 strikeouts and
general inability to make frequent contact remain an obstacle in his
overall development as a hitter. Gaston is not as graceful or athletic as
Arizona center fielder T.J. Steele, but he runs and throws average, and
his lefthanded bat has the potential to be an effective weapon.—AS
Gaston在今年球季的表現並沒有幫助到他提升他選秀的順位,直到球季後半才開始拉
尾盤,把打擊率提升回.307. 他還有11HR和12SB,但是他也領了42K,他最大的問題
在於沒辦法穩定的打到球,這會是他發展成一個大聯盟球員最大的障礙. Gaston不
像他的隊友Steele一樣展現出優秀的運動員天賦,他大概有平均左右的速度和臂力,
而他的左打能力可能發展成為一個有力的武器.
