1. 這算是蠻大的新聞了吧，不知我有沒lag。 簽下前華盛頓國民隊28歲內野手Felipe Lopez。 Lopez今年在國民三圍僅.234/.305/.314，打擊表現相當掙扎； 六月的打擊率更僅有.203。 然而他的長打比Adam Kennedy及Cesar Izturis還佳， 過去都能夠年產將近10HR，今年在華盛頓也有2發及25分打點。 2005年Lopez是紅人隊中唯一入選明星隊球員(也僅此一年)， 整季23HR，打擊率.291，上壘率.352。 Lopez到來使Brendan Ryan下放至3A。 Ryan近兩個月打擊率僅.242，而且沒有HR，今年打點只有9分。 GM John Mozeliak表示Lopez過去成績顯現他能為打擊帶來貢獻。 雖然今年低潮，但換個環境或許能讓他表現較佳。 並且Lopez的多功能性可為攻擊時帶來不同的效果。 Lopez可守二壘、三壘、游擊以及外野；不過他防守很差， 原本是游擊手，今年在國民卻較常擔任二壘。 Felope Lopez歷年成績: http://www.baseball-reference.com/l/lopezfe01.shtml (幹，我一直希望他能來；結果還真的來了XD 其實我印象一直放在MVP以及05年的成績， 但他來後真的可以替代Ryan的鳥打，至少不會讓人不期不待。 希望他可以跟LaRue一樣恢復05年的身手，新同學，加油!!!) 2. Adam Wainwright面對隊友Nick Stavinoha及Rick Ankiel練投35球。 幾球暴投，有一球滑球如變心女友般被Ankiel轟向深遠的右外野。 他表示他的手指沒有不適，但投球機制好像生鏽了。 Wainy在周日將在3A先發復健賽， 內容將決定他在回來前需要再一場或是兩場復健賽。 3. 隨著Wainy練投進步， 明天Joel Pineiro的先發可能是期末考； 但他的期末考可能不會太順遂。 道奇新同學Manny Ramirez生涯對老皮11-26，3發全壘打； Casey Blake來到道奇後打擊率.400，有1發全壘打。 另外，明天領先時不要太高興。 老皮在今年球隊有18場領先時，搞砸了16次。 4. Albert Pujols第一局的安打突破前四場0-13的窘境。 5. 明年明星賽在聖路易舉行，logo出爐了: http://stlouis.cardinals.mlb.com/images/2008/08/05/blGxsNQO.jpg Arch真漂亮^^ 6. Ankiel腹部仍不舒服，在道奇的系列賽仍然只會擔任代打。 7. 去年狀元Pete Kozma升上高階1A， 他在低階1A的成績為.284打擊率，得58分，40分打點，20支二壘安打。 不過他今天替補上場守備時發生一次失誤。 (希望Brett Wallace也趕快升吧) 8. 說到Wallace，下面是他的一些訪問: http://tinyurl.com/5d75za 談到他的外號:Wally(芬威那隻? XD)、B-Dub。大部分人還是叫他Wally。 Future Redbirds網站稱他"Walrus海象"，外型跟諧音都顧到了XD 也有人稱呼Brett "the Hitman" Wallace，起源於摔角選手Bret "the Hitman" Hart。 他是個電動狂，最愛遊戲是MVP 2005(幹，來PK啦!) 9. http://www.thebatavian.com/blogs/mollie/meet-muckdogs-scott-gorgen 這是今年另一新秀Scott Gorgen專訪影片。 內容有:如果不打棒球，會做教練；有個雙胞胎兄弟今年被Tampa Rays選上； 最愛球隊舊金山巨人= =，最愛球員Mark McGwire(這還差不多)； 投球總要嚼口香糖等打球時的迷信動作； 還有許多，可以自己看看，了解這位令人期待的投手新秀:) 10. http://www.minorleagueball.com/2008/8/5/587161/st-louis-cardinals-top-20 最後是John Sickles的St. Louis Cardinals Top 20 Prospects in Review: 1) Colby Rasmus, OF, Grade A .249/.346/.395 with 11 homers, 15 steals for Triple-A Memphis, out for the rest of the year with injury. Sunk by a poor first month, but he rebounded eventually before getting hurt. Retained good strike zone judgment and I still like him long-term. 2) Chris Perez, RHP, Grade B 3.20 ERA with 38/12 K/BB in 25 innings, 11 saves for Memphis, 4.18 ERA with 22/13 K/BB in 24 innings for the Cardinals. Terrific stuff, just needs to control it. 3) Jaime Garcia, LHP, Grade B Dominated Texas League early, then 4.44 ERA with 59/26 K/BB in 71 innings in Triple-A. Has done OK in limited major league action, four runs in nine innings. A solid pitcher. 4) Adam Ottavino, RHP, Grade B 5.61 ERA with 76/45 K/BB in 87 innings for Double-A Springfield, 95 hits allowed. Not a good year, a blow to his status. 5) Bryan Anderson, C, Grade B- .303/.384/.400 for Memphis. Continues to hit for average with strong contact skills but weak power. 6) Tyler Herron, RHP, Grade B- Has pitched great in the Florida State League (2.31 ERA with 29/3 K/BB in 35 innings) but struggled in the Texas League (5.20 ERA with 59/29 K/BB in 81 innings, 101 hits allowed). Stock has dropped a bit. 7) Clayton Mortensen, RHP, Grade B- 4.32 ERA with 88/48 K/BB and 118 hits in 119 innings combined between Double-A and Triple-A. Numbers similar at each level, main difference is less impressive GO/AO in Triple-A. 8) Pete Kozma, SS, Grade B- .284/.363/.398 with 12 steals for Class A Quad Cities, which is pretty solid performance for the hitting-difficult Midwest League. Strong plate discipline. 9) Jess Todd, RHP, Grade B- 3.19 ERA with 78/22 K/BB in 96 innings in Double-A, 78 hits 10) Allen Craig, 3B, Grade B- .309/.374/.503 with 20 homers, 39 walks, 75 strikeouts in 447 at-bats for Springfield. Hard to argue with his production though could tighten the strike zone. 11) P.J. Walters, RHP, Grade B- Pre-season sleeper call with mixed results. 4.77 ERA in Triple-A, but 8-3, 96/45 K/BB in 94 innings, 99 hits. Needs to get the walks down, K/IP remains strong. Still a sleeper though the grade was a notch too high. 12) Jose Martinez, SS, Grade B- .237/.277/.327 for Springfield. Obviously this grade was too high too. 13) Mitchell Boggs, RHP, Grade C+ 3.61 ERA with 61/35 K/BB in 95 innings for Memphis, 7.41 ERA with 13/22 K/BB in 34 innings for the Cardinals. i felt he was somewhat overrated by others pre-season. He hasn't convinced me I was wrong yet. 14) Jon Jay, OF, Grade C+ I predicted a rebound and he has come through, .308/.381/.464 between Double-A and Triple-A. Excellent contact hitting skills with improving power. 15) Brian Barton, OF, Grade C+ .306/.414/.571 in Triple-A, .246/.331/.369 in the majors. I think he just needs consistent playing time. 16) Joe Mather, OF, Grade C+ .303/.406/.630 in Triple-A, .244/.309/.465 in the majors. Like Barton, he has some skills but needs playing time to show the marginal, but good power. 17) Dave Freese, 3B, Grade C+ .299/.351/.528 for Memphis. Marginal plate discipline but good overall production. 18) Cody Haerther, OF, Grade C+ .260/.331/.358 for Memphis. He's not going to have enough pop to be useful I fear. 19) David Kopp, RHP, Grade C+ 3.76 ERA with 30/15 K/BB and strong ground ball tendency for Palm Beach in the Florida State League, but limited pitching time due to injury. 20) Steven Hill, C-INF, Grade C+ .303/.330/.505 for Springfield but on the DL since June. The Cardinals system has made a lot of progress the last few years. Some of my sleeper calls look dicey right now, but I'm glad to see Jay progressing as he has been a favorite of mine since he was in college a Miami. I think Rasmus just needs to reset and start over next year, but I retain faith in him long term. Kozma is a breakout candidate for 2009. --
