MLB.com's Jim Callis On Nationals' Draft: 'Their Draft Is Really Interesting' https://goo.gl/iNL2WH By: Glenn Clark, June 14, 2016 The Washington Nationals selected 41 players during the 40-round MLB First-Year Player Draft June 9-11. Among the picks were two first-round selections, Walton High School (Ga.) shortstop Carter Kieboom (28th overall) and Florida right- handed pitcher Dane Dunning (29th overall). 國民在選秀會三天40輪裡選了41個球員，最高的是兩支首輪籤： 28順位來自Walton High School (Ga.)的游擊手Carter Kieboom， 與29順位出身University of Florida的右投Dane Dunning。 Jim Callis was part of MLB Network's draft broadcast and is a draft and prospect expert for MLB.com and MLBPipeline.com. He spoke with PressBoxDC.com about the Nationals' selections and the team's minor league system overall. Jim Callis是官網選秀會主播也是官網及MLBPipeline選秀與新秀專家， 他與PressBoxDC.com談論國民的選秀結果與球隊農場。 PressBox: What did you think of the Nationals' back-to-back selections of Kieboom and Dunning at Nos. 28 and 29? PB:你對於國民在28與29順位選下Kieboom跟Dunning的想法如何？ Jim Callis: I like both of those guys. We didn't have them rated quite that high on our list, which doesn't really mean anything because you got to factor in signability, too. Kieboom, I think he probably moves to third base down the road, but I thought he was one of the best bats in high school anywhere. He's got some bat speed and some loft, average power. I think he really profiles well at third base. I do like him. JC:這兩個我都喜歡。在我們的順位裡他們排名沒那麼高，不過這真的不代表什麼， 因為就現實層面你還是得考量就算選了又有沒有辦法把人簽下來。 我認為Kieboom最後可能會移往三壘，但我想他是全國最好的高中打者之一， 他有些出棒速度，也有些average power能把球打高。 我想他真的會是很好的三壘手，我喜歡他。 Dunning is interesting. I think Dunning would be starting on almost any college team in the country, but Florida is so deep on the mound that Dunning wound up being in the bullpen more than anything else. We've got some [comparisons between] him and [Cincinnati Reds pitcher] Anthony DeSclafani, who was kind of in the same situation when he was with the Gators. He's a low 90s [mph] guy who can hit 95 with really good life. I think his changeup is better than his breaking ball. He's a real interesting guy, too. Dunning很有意思。我覺得幾乎在國內大部分大學他都能先發， 但Florida的投手深度太強導致Dunning變成不折不扣的牛棚投手。 我們有些Dunning與Anthony DeSclafani的比較， 當DeSclafani也穿著Gators球衣時同樣遇到類似狀況。 Dunning的速球low-90s，能投到95也有很好的尾勁。 我認為他的變速球優於他的變化球，他也是很有趣的傢伙。 PB: What other picks did the Nationals make that jumped out at you? PB:國民有其它籤位讓你眼睛一亮嗎？ JC: I really do like [Oklahoma third baseman] Sheldon Neuse, who's their second -round pick, too. I thought he was one of the better hitters. Their draft is really interesting. They got Sheldon Neuse, who I think profiles really well at third base and also is a pretty good reliever for Oklahoma as well, 94 [mph fastball] with a really good slider. JC:我真的很欣賞他們在第二輪選到的Oklahoma三壘手Sheldon Neuse。 我想他是頂尖打者之一，國民選得相當有意思。 我認為Sheldon Neuse會是個優秀的三壘手， 同時他也是Oklahoma陣中牛棚好手，能投94mph速球加上很棒的滑球。 Their third-round pick, [Stoneman Douglas High School (Fla.) left-handed pitcher] Jesus Luzardo, had a chance to go in the first round as a very polished left-hander before he had Tommy John surgery. So he's real interesting . And their fourth-rounder, [Texas A&M outfielder] Nick Banks, could have been a first-rounder, too. He was one of the better all-around players on Team USA's college team last summer. He had surgery to remove a cyst from his lower back in the fall, and he's just been kind of stiff. He hasn't swung as well or run as well or thrown as well this spring. He's shown in spurts -- he was the SEC tournament MVP -- but, other than that, hasn't done a whole lot. 第三輪來自Stoneman Douglas High School (Fla.)的高度完成品左投Jesus Luzardo， 在開TJ前有機會擠進第一輪，因此這支選得也頗有趣。 第四輪Texas A&M外野手Nick Banks也是有機會進入首輪。 他是去年夏天全美大學隊上最好的全能型球員之一， 秋天動手術移除下背部囊腫後就變得有些僵硬。 今年春天無論揮棒跑壘或傳球都不像過去那麼好， 雖然還是衝到拿下SEC tournament MVP，但除此之外就乏善可陳了。 If you get him back to the Nick Banks that we saw last summer, and let's say Jesus Luzardo gets back to where he was. He was pitching with increased velocity in the spring before he hurt his elbow. Both of those guys could have been first-round picks. Their draft has the ability to really pay off if those guys can get back to 100 percent. 如果要說到去年夏天我們看到的Nick Banks，那也該談談受傷前的Jesus Luzardo。 春天他弄傷自己的手肘前球速比以往更快。這兩個傢伙都有第一輪的可能。 如果他們能完全恢復健康，那這兩支籤位真的有機會完全回收。 PB: Just how high are you on 2012 first-round pick and current Double-A Harrisburg Senators right-handed pitcher Lucas Giolito? It seems like almost every analyst seems to believe he's the real deal. PB:你對2012首輪右投，目前待在2A Harrisburg Senators的Lucas Giolito評價多高？ 看來好像幾乎所有分析都相信他是真貨。 JC: He's No. 1 on our overall top-100 prospect list right now. I think he [has] the best stuff of any starter in the minors. His control hasn't been quite as sharp this year as it has been in the past -- I know he's been battling his mechanics a little bit. But it's all there. You got stuff; you got command; you got size. I think he's a pretty intelligent kid, too. I wouldn't be surprised at if we saw him in the big leagues before the end of the year. Even if he's on an innings limit and they decide to use him out of the bullpen, I just think that arm's too good not to bring it up and use it down the stretch. JC:他是目前官網百大第一，我想他擁有全小聯盟先發中最強的stuff。 今年他的control不像過去那麼好，我知道他對自己的投球機制有些掙扎， 但東西就擺在那裏。他有stuff，有command，身材也好。我想他也是相當聰明的孩子。 球季結束前如果看他站上大聯盟投手丘我一點也不會覺得意外， 就算因局數限制導致球團決定讓他進牛棚而不是先發； 我只是覺得到了關鍵時刻這條手臂實在好到不用可惜。 --
