Over 40 ALPB Players Signed by MLB/Int'l Teams in 2015
2015年大西洋聯盟(ALPB)超過40位球員被MLB或外國球團簽約.
The Atlantic League of Professional Baseball (ALPB), the nation’s most
progressive independent league, has had the contracts of 42 of its players
purchased by MLB or international organizations this year through the halfway
point in the season. In comparison, last year 55 ALPB players were signed
during the entire season.
美國發展最先進的獨立聯盟ALPB今年半季有42位球員被MLB或國際球團買斷合約.
對照去年整季則有55位球員.
Although ALPB clubs are unaffiliated, the League and MLB work through a
unique agreement governing the transfer of players to Major League teams.
This spring, the Atlantic League became the first independent league to enter
into a relationship with Major League Baseball, formalizing the process under
which its players’ contracts could be sold to MLB organizations.
雖然ALPB是獨立性質,但與MLB透過獨特的協議管理球員轉換至大聯盟球隊.
今年春季ALPB成為第一個與大聯盟有隸屬關係的獨聯,
將底下球員合約形式化,再透過程序能將合約賣給大聯盟體系.
“The Atlantic League showcases an exceptionally high-quality on-field product,
”said Rick White, President of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball.
“We are the stepping stone for many talented young players and veterans to
advance to the highest level of competition in the Major Leagues.”
大西洋聯盟主席Rick White表示:"ALTB展現了極高品質的產品.我們是許多新秀和老將更進
一步前往最高層級大聯盟競爭的踏腳基石."
Among the recent former Atlantic League players currently in the Majors are
Houston Astros pitcher Scott Kazmir, 31, who started 14 games in 2012 with
the Sugar Land Skeeters before signing with the Cleveland Indians for the
2013 season. During his time with the Skeeters, he rediscovered the pitching
mechanics that made him an elite pitcher. On July 24, former York Revolution
pitcher Ian Thomas earned a win in his first major league start with the Los
Angeles Dodgers against the New York Mets. Thus far this year, the York
Revolution have seen nine of their players sign with Major League
organizations.
31歲的Scott Kazmir在與印地安人簽約先前在Skeeters先發了14場比賽,
在這期間他重新找回了投球機制讓他成為了優秀的投手;
7/24前York Revolution的Ian Thomas也摘下大聯盟先發首勝.
而今年York Revolution已經看到9位球員與大聯盟體系簽約.
“If a player gets cut or fails to make a big league roster, their dream does
not have to end,” said ALPB Executive Director of Baseball Operations Joe
Klein, who spent decades in MLB front offices. “Years ago that may have been
the case, but the talent pool these days is immense and it takes some players
longer than others to reach their full potential. The Atlantic League affords
these players the opportunity to hone their skills at a high level of
competition.”
ALPB待過大聯盟總部十年的執行長Joe Klein表示:"如果球員被刷下或是失敗沒辦法成為大
聯盟名單的球員,夢想還沒結束;幾年前可能一直是這樣,但現今人才庫巨大,一些球員需要
比別人更長的時間充分發揮潛力.ALPB提供這些球員機會,在高度競爭中磨練自己的技能."
