http://athletics.scout.com/2/847610.html The Oakland A's might have one or two of their top pitching prospects with them when they break camp. Vince Mazzaro, Trevor Cahill and Brett Anderson all have been impressive this spring while competing for at least one and possibly two spots. 三位頂級新秀投手 Vince Mazzaro, Trevor Cahill, Brett Anderson在春訓都表現 的相當不錯,預計有機會在先發輪值中,競爭一或兩個位置 Vince Mazzaro got his first Cactus League start on March 12, and he extended his spring scoreless streak to eight innings this week. Scouts have raved about Mazzaro all spring, and at 22, he is slightly older than Trevor Cahill and Brett Anderson, who are both 21. Mazzaro was the Texas League's Pitcher of the Year in 2008, which was a break-through season for the right-hander. It was his first professional season with an ERA under 5.00. Mazzaro 在春訓投出了連續八局未失分的紀錄 他比另外兩位投手大了一歲 在2008年他獲選為Texas League的年度投手,而這也是他突飛猛進的一年 生涯首次將ERA壓到5.00以下 Mazzaro also has more experience at higher levels in the minors, having played at Triple-A last year during the regular season. Another plus for Mazzaro is that he has been working on a new changeup. He's using it with regularity and getting outs. Catcher Landon Powell told the San Francisco Chronicle that batters don't know what the pitch is, and when they have to ask the catcher, that's a good sign. Mazzaro去年曾在3A出賽,比其他兩位多了點高階的經驗 今年他練了新的變速球,以增加他的優勢 此變速球多次的讓打者出局 捕手Powell說不少打者無法辨識這個球路 Anderson pitched for Triple-A Sacramento in the playoffs, winning the deciding Pacific Coast League playoff game, and he is the only left-hander of the three. He was also one of the top starters for Team USA at the Olympics last summer. Anderson was the winning pitcher for the A's on Sunday, as he tossed four scoreless innings against the A's top rival, the Angels of Anaheim. He has allowed only two runs on eight hits in 9.2 innings this spring. The only negative of his spring thus far is that he has struck-out only one batter. Anderson 去年沒有在3A例行賽比賽,但他在季後替3A河貓贏得了聯盟的冠軍 他是三人當中的唯一左投 於去年奧運，擔任美國隊的先發 他在星期天的出賽,以四局無失分的表現,打敗了猴子,而拿到了勝投 在今年的春訓裡,有不錯的表現(9.2局8安打2失分) 唯一的劣勢是他總共只三振了一名打者 Cahill hasn't pitched beyond Double-A, as he returned from the Olympics with a strained oblique muscle that sidelined him for the post-season and he wasn't able to join Anderson on the River Cats' post-season roster. Cahill has a nasty sinker and excellent mound presence for such a young pitcher. He has twice been named the A's Minor League Pitcher of the Year. Cahill跟Anderson一樣,還未在3A出賽過 去年從奧運回來,本來要跟Anderson一起加入河貓了季後賽 也因為斜肌的扭傷而缺席 他有犀利的伸卡球作為他的武器 而且對一個年輕投手來說,他在投手丘上的表現極為優異 他曾兩度被提名為A's農場的年度投手 Non-roster right-hander Edgar Gonzalez also is in contention for one of the rotation spots. He could have an edge if the A's decide they would like a bit more experience, particularly if Justin Duchscherer is unavailable early in the season because of elbow discomfort. He has a 4.00 ERA this spring. Non-roster veteran Jerome Williams is also in the mix. He threw two innings on Sunday and he also has a 4.00 ERA this spring. Duchscherer的健康充滿了變數 此外兩位Non-roster選手 Edgar Gonzalez與Jerome Williams可能憑著多一點大聯盟 經驗來競爭先發輪值 --
