BA 所选 WBC 十大新秀第一名，最後一段有点扯过头 1. Yu Darvish, rhp, Japan On Team Japan, Darvish stands out. It's not only because at 6-foot-5, he stands heads and shoulders over most of his Japanese teammates. The 22-year-old carries himself with the swagger of a rock star, from his leg kick after key strikeouts to his actress wife and his love of the limelight. He also stands out with his stuff. He has one of the best, and deepest, assortments of pitches in baseball period. His fastball sits between 93-95 mph and he can touch 99 mph at times. But his 82-84 mph slider and 76 mph 12-to-6 cuveball may be even more effective. He also has a 90-91 mph split that dives into the dirt at the plate. Interestingly, he always pitches from the stretch, and he's recently added a slight pause as he breaks his hands that adds some deception to his timing. If there is any complaint about Darvish from U.S. scouts, it's that he pitches too much off his secondary stuff when he has the fastball to simply blow hitters away. But it's hard to argue with results—he went 12-5, 2.90 with Nippon in 2006, bettered it by going 15-5, 1.82 in 2007 and 16-4, 1.88 in 2008. Darvish has given no indication that he plans on coming to the U.S. anytime soon, and he's still several years away from free agency, although he could garner Nippon a posting fee likely in excess of the $51 million Daisuke Matsuzaka brought Seibu. If Darvish ever does come to the U.S., he likely would have a somewhat easier transition than many Japanese players. His Iranian father lived in the States in the 1970s and 1980s before moving to Japan, and Darvish still has relatives in the U.S. --
