這是寫於2012/01/02的一篇球探報告，當時Choice還在綠帽的高階1A 跟大家分享一下 Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF): Classic right field profile with power, patience, athleticism and defense; potential All-Star outfielder. 典型的右外野手帶有砲瓦，耐性，防守。有機會成為All star The Player: Michael Choice (OF, Oakland Athletics) – Played his first full season in the High-A California League. Slugged 30 home runs in the high-octane offensive environment with 28 doubles as well. Did hit .285 with 61 walks in 118 games while striking out 134 times. 在高階1A的一整個球季，在118場比賽中敲出了30發全壘打和28發二壘安打 AVG為.285 有61BB 和134SO Scouting Report Body: Thick, extremely well-built body. Very muscular with broad shoulders, strength in upper and lower arms, thick legs and incredibly strong core. Maintains flexibility despite muscularity. Fills out the uniform and is the kid you pick out when he gets off the bus in street clothes. 身體素質：有著厚實，良好健身的身材，寬大的肩膀，結實的肌肉，在上下臂都充滿 著力量，他的腿跟核心部位也都非常地強壯，雖然肌肉發達但依然保持協調性。 Makeup: Diligent with workouts and remains on an even keel during games. Doesn ’t carry bad at-bats or defensive misplays to other parts of his game. 不知道怎麼翻 Hit: Starts with slightly open stance, has some extra movement in hand load, bringing hands forward slightly and then returning them to the hitting position. Very small stride as part of trigger with odd twist of front foot. Plus-plus bat speed and solid bat control. Will get beat inside by good fastballs but has made adjustments. Will swing and miss a lot due in part to trouble recognizing breaking pitches. Contact issues will likely always exist. Grade – 30/40 打擊：一開始是有點開放式的站姿，會有一些多餘的動作在等待擊球時，會先把手往前 移動一些然後再移回來就打擊姿勢，打擊時前腳會奇怪的扭曲來帶動非常小的跨步， 非常優異的揮棒速度及球棒的控制能力，對速球的打擊非常好，但還需要一些調整 會因為對變化球有辨識上的困難而常常揮空。能不能碰到球的問題一直存在 分數 - 30/40 Power: Bat speed and more controlled loft to back end of swing (previously showed more of an uppercut) generate tremendous power. Has strength to drive ball to opposite field but gets pull happy at times. Raw power plays very well in game situations despite swing and miss tendencies because when he makes contact he makes extremely hard contact. Grade (raw power) – 60/70 砲瓦：揮棒速度及在揮棒後半段的掌控度能產生巨大的砲瓦。擁有能轟出球場的怪力 在比賽中依然能很好地釋放砲瓦，雖然對擊球的掌握不是很好導致揮空的趨勢增加。 分數 - 60/70 Arm: Not necessarily a classic right field hose but a solid-average arm with good carry and improving accuracy. He gets rid of the ball quickly. Grade – 50/50 臂力：有平均以上的臂力，好的射程，持續改進的準度，從接球到球離手的時間很短 分數 - 50/50 Fielding: Solid athlete with decent instincts. Gets good jumps off the bat and takes proper routes most of the time. Capable of playing center field now but likely will slow down an dmove to right field long term. Grade – 50/60 守備：有很好的天分。在大部分的時候能準確判斷球的落點。有守中外野的能力， 但在中外時，速度會慢下來且守備範圍會往右外移動的傾向。 分數 - 50/60 Speed: Average runner now with commensurate home-to-first times. Continues to become more muscular and may lose some speed with added mass. Good instincts on the bases and in the field should help counter any loss of speed. Grade – 50/40 速度：從本壘到一壘的時間等於平均的跑者，由於肌肉變大而使跑步的速度會漸漸變慢 不論是在壘包間還是在外野，有好的天份能彌補遺失的速度。 分數 - 50/40 Summation: Potential run producing middle of the order hitter with a good approach, fringe-average hitting skills and plus to plus-plus power. If he can maintain his speed as he matures and stay in center field he could be a legit star. With a move to a corner outfield spot he’s still a potential All-Star caliber player. 總結：潛在的中心打者帶著平均水準的打擊技巧及好到優的砲瓦。如果等他成熟後 他還能保持現在的速度及移防到中外的話，他就可能成為明日之星。但即使他最後 還是在右外的話，他也依然是個All-star。 Relative Risk: High. Despite a tremendous first full season he carries a high risk level due to the swing and miss in offensive profile. If he doesn’t maintain his approach against more advanced pitchers then the contact problems could manifest in such a way that they hinder the rest of his offensive game and stunt his ultimate potential. 相對的風險：高。儘管有第一個完整的球季，他還是有高風險因為他太常揮空了。 如果他不能把他擊球的能力練得更好，遇到更高階的投手，揮空的問題會被放大， 且會阻礙他潛能的成長。 Future: Choice will go to Double-A Midland for the start of the 2012 season. There is precious little standing in the way of his arrival in Oakland but the cost-conscious A’s may be far more inclined to bring him up in 2013 no matter how much he rakes this year. By the end of 2013 he could be flashing the impact offensive potential he has and sometime in 2014 he should be regularly displaying the ability to carry the Oakland offense. 未來性：這就不翻了，因為已經發生了。 補個成績 AB 2B HR BB SO AVG OBP SLG OPS SO% 2011 A+ 467 28 30 61 134 .285 .376 .542 .918 28.7 2012 AA 359 15 10 33 88 .287 .356 .423 .779 24.5 2013 AAA 510 29 14 69 115 .302 .390 .445 .835 22.5 2013 OAK 18 1 0 1 6 .278 .316 .333 .649 31.6 就成績來看 揮空的問題有改善，砲瓦也還算有維持，應該是朝好的方向發展。 如果還有甚麼遺漏的，就請麻煩大家補充。 --
