入手：Thomas Neal, OF（via Orlando Cabrera trade） http://tinyurl.com/3rsdde3 Thomas Neal, OF: A 23-year-old right-handed hitter, Neal was drafted in the 36th round in 2005 from Riverside Junior College in California. His breakthrough was in 2009 when he hit .337/.431/.579 for High-A San Jose, but his power production and patience have tailed off at higher levels, leading to a .291/.359/.440 mark last year in Double-A and a .295/.351/.409 mark with four homers this year for Triple-A Fresno. He's drawn just 13 walks in 240 plate appearances this year. He is currently on the disabled list with a hand injury. Neal has solid-average tools and has kept his batting average up, but the decline in his power production at higher levels makes me cautious at this point. I rated him a Grade B- pre-season but would lower that to C+ now. Neal: 打擊率高，但長打能力每升一級就下降一點，選球能力同時減弱。 目前在傷兵名單，評價從季初的B-下降到C+。 損失：Drew Pomeranz, LHP (PTBNL, traded after Aug. 16) Alex White, RHP Joe Gardner, RHP Matt Mcbride, OF (to Rockies via Ubaldo Jimenez trade) http://tinyurl.com/3fx5bnc Drew Pomeranz, LHP: The Indians drafted Pomeranz in the 1st round in 2010, from the University of Mississippi, fifth overall. A 6-5, 230 pound lefty, he's been excellent in his pro debut this year, posting a 1.87 ERA with a 95/32 K/BB in 77 innings for High-A Kinston, with 56 hits allowed, then a 2.57 ERA with a 17/6 K/BB in his first 14 innings after being promoted to Akron, with 10 hits allowed. Pomeranz has a low-to-mid-90s fastball, a nasty, overpowering knuckle-curve, and an improving changeup. His command can be erratic, but his stuff is first-class and pro hitters haven't been a huge challenge for him yet. I gave him a Grade B+ pre-season and currently see him as a Grade A-, one of the elite pitching prospects in the game. He won't be officially named in the trade until August 16th or later. Pomeranz: 快速球90-95mph，從天而降的刁鑽knuckle-curve，持續進步的變速球。 控球有時走鐘，但球路具一流水準，小聯盟打者對他不足以構成威脅。 評價從開季時B+上升到A-。大聯盟農場裡最頂尖的投手新秀之一。 Alex White, RHP: White was drafted by Cleveland in the first round in 2009, from the University of North Carolina, 15th overall. The 22-year-old right-hander began 2011 with Triple-A Columbus and posted a 1.90 ERA with a 28/5 K/BB in 24 innings, which earned him a major league promotion. He posted a 3.60 ERA in his first three starts for the Tribe, with a 13/9 K/BB in 15 innings and a 2.33 GO/AO, but then went on the DL with a finger injury. He's expected to return to action soon. White's fastball has a lot of sink and reaches 93-94 on his best days. He'll mix in a slider, but his out-pitch is a plus splitter. I rated him a Grade B+ pre-season and see no reason to change that right now. White: 季初升上大聯盟先發三場，投了15局， 滾飛比2.33，三振13，保送9，自責分率3.60。 目前因手指受傷停賽，但很快就能重新在小聯盟投球。 快速球最快93-94mph，下沉幅度大，搭配滑球，主要制勝球路是漂亮的指叉球。 開季評價B+保持不變。 Joe Gardner, RHP: Garner is a 23-year-old right-hander drafted in the third round in 2009 from UC-Santa Barbara. He currently has a 4.99 ERA with a 60/47 K/BB in 97 innings for Double-A Akron, with 108 hits allowed and a 1.91 GO/AO. His key pitch is a hard sinker, clocked as high as 94 on his best days. His slider and changeup are inconsistent, and problems with his secondary pitches are especially evident against left-handed hitters, who've hit .319 against him this year. Although the Indians were working to develop him as a starter, many scouts believe he'll be better off in the pen. I rated him a Grade B pre-season but he looks more like a C+ right now. Gardner: 伸卡球最快94mph，滑球和變速球時好時壞， 變化球不足以解決左打的問題尤其嚴重（對戰打擊率高達.319）。 球團仍想培養成先發投手，但球探大多認為必須轉任後援。 開季時評價B，目前跌到C+。 Matt McBride, OF-1B: McBride was a supplemental second-round pick in 2006 from Lehigh University. A 26-year-old right-handed hitter, he's currently hitting .297/.359/.535 with 14 homers, 30 walks, and 44 strikeouts in 310 at-bats for Akron. However, he struggled earlier in the year for Triple-A Columbus, with a .156/.191/.267 mark in 45 at-bats. He began his career as a catcher but is mainly a first baseman and corner outfielder now, though he can still catch in an emergency. He's performed quite well over parts of four seasons in Double-A, but has been unable to master Triple-A, hitting just .238/.267/.378 in 164 at-bats at that level. Grade C. McBride: 2A表現不差，但在3A無法立足。 捕手出身，目前主要守一壘或左、右外野，但需要時仍可蹲捕。評價C。 == 送走Pomeranz還是讓人心裡直淌血。失去White反而容易接受一點。 --
