春訓成績不重要，但有些有趣現象還是可以拿出來觀察一下
Spring stats mean nothing! But they're fun to look at. A few highlights ...
and lowlights (stats from major league games only):
1.Some people haven't bought in on Paul Goldschmidt as they worry about the
strikeouts, but one reason I do like him is he'll draw some walks to go
with the power: He's hitting .265 with three homers, but with 12 walks
(and 13 strikeouts).
2.Josh Collmenter hasn't pitched well for Arizona: Five walks and just four
strikeouts in 12 innings. He'll start in the rotation but you wonder how
soon before we see Trevor Bauer.
3.Braves prospect Julio Teheran has somehow allowed nine home runs in 13
innings.
4.Jeff Samardzija earned a spot in the Cubs' rotation by showing good stuff
but just as impressively has walked just one batter in 20 innings. This
from a guy who averaged 5.1 walks per nine innings in relief in 2011.
5.Not good news for the Cubs: First baseman Bryan LaHair has 16 strikeouts
and one walk. Is the 29-year-old Triple-A vet pressing now that he's been
given a chance to start after hitting .331 at Iowa? His SO/BB ratio at
Triple-A was 111/60.
6.Joey Votto is hitting .214 without a home run. I like how people will make
a big deal when somebody does well ... but not a big deal when a star player
doesn't do well. Again, spring stats ... for entertainment purposes only!
7.Dexter Fowler has had a miserable spring for the Rockies, hitting .118 in
51 at-bats with 16 strikeouts.
8.Clemens has pitched five scoreless innings for the Astros. Paul Clemens,
that is.
9.Matt Kemp says he wants to go 50-50. He's not going to do it swinging like
this: 21 strikeouts and one walk. Ouch.
10.Carlos Zambrano has 14 walks in 17.2 innings. But 18 strikeouts. So ...
I think it's safe to say nobody knows what to expect from Big Z.
11.Zack Greinke has perhaps been the most impressive pitcher this spring with
a 28/2 strikeout/walk ratio and no home runs allowed. That's pretty tough
to do in Arizona, where the ball flies.
12.Sticking with the Brewers, Jonathan Lucroy is hitting .513 (20-for-39).
This has nothing to do with that .513 average, but I like Lucroy as a
breakout candidate.
13.Jason Bay hasn't homered or driven in a run for the Mets and has petitioned
to move in the spring training fences.
14.Roy Halladay has allowed six home runs in 20 innings. He gave up 10 in
233.2 innings last season.
15.Is this the year Pedro Alvarez breaks out? Umm ... well, with 20 K's and
one walk I guess we can be positive and make a Matt Kemp comparison.
16.One of my sleeper relievers of the year is Brad Brach of the Padres;
he's looked good with a 14/2 K/BB ratio.
17.What will the Giants do with Brandon Belt? He's hitting .407 with seven
doubles and three homers in 59 at-bats.
18.Adam Wainwright has a 1.45 ERA for the Cardinals but just nine strikeouts
(and six walks) in 18.2 innings.
19.Davey Johnson says he wants to bat Ian Desmond leadoff. He has 18
strikeouts and two walks while hitting .299.
