Re: [外電] CHIEN-MING WANG THE YANKEES' QUIET ACE

[Kinra (喵天使)]

來磨鍵盤
最近報導要講什麼大家都猜得到了，
所以就很隨便的翻，有些地方差不多已經不算翻譯了，所以看看就算了唄

※ 引述《yyhong68 (come every now and then)》之銘言：
: CHIEN-MING WANG THE YANKEES' QUIET ACE
王建民．洋基的沈默王牌
（沈默的王牌已經變成固定稱號了嗎…）

: Chien-Ming Wang operates in a universe where three kids are smothered in
: attention even though none have spent a full season in the big leagues,
: one veteran is up to his neck in the Roger Clemens saga and another is
: trying to fend off Father Time.
王建民目前所處的世界裡，
有三個小朋友還沒在大檸檬打過一整季就已經飽受矚目、
一個老人被困在火箭人事件裡出不來、
還有一個正想逃避無情歲月的追殺。

: So, despite winning 19 games in each of the past two seasons, Wang makes
: no ripples in the pool when he dives in. Part of it is the language barrier
: that disappears a little bit every year. However, Wang's ice-like demeanor
: and no-nonsense approach to pitching have as much to do with him not getting
: much attention.
因此，即使連續兩季十九勝，小王跳進水池裡還是不濺起半點水花。
有一部份是因為語言障礙，不過這障礙每年都在漸漸消退。
造成小王得不到多少注意的原因，主要是他冷如冰的表情與不亂來的投球態度。

: Joba Chamberlain, Phil Hughes and Ian Kennedy are media darlings for their
: arrival together in The Bronx, their outgoing personalities and because none
: of them were swapped for Johan Santana. Andy Pettitte has been asked about
: the Mitchell Report, HGH and Clemens more than his curveball. At 39,
: Mike Mussina answers questions about being able to help the Yankees.
: And Wang cruises through the Groundhog-like days of spring training with
: a small smile for everyone. Even after losing an arbitration case in which
: he filed for $4.6 million. Instead, he will make $4 million this year to
: be Joe Girardi's ace.
張伯倫、休斯和甘迺迪才是媒體寵兒，因為
a)他們一起抵達布朗克斯  b)他們個性比較外向  c)他們都沒被拿去換山大王

老派被問到的總是米契爾報告、人類生長激素和火箭人的事（總歸一字就是藥），
他的曲球倒是沒什麼人關心。

穆帥已經三十九歲了，他回答的問題是他能不能繼續幫助洋基隊。

而小王則是每天微笑*^__^*迎人的，鑽過了土撥鼠般的春訓日子，
即使他之前輸了仲裁：他希望拿4.6M，結果今年在究極拉迪麾下當王牌也只能拿4M。

: So, after winning 38 games in the past two seasons but getting spanked twice
: by the Indians in the ALDS last October, Wang is using the exhibition
: schedule to add a wrinkle or two to his signature sinking fastball that
: hitters often describe as trying to hit a bowling ball.
所以咧，歷經 a)過去兩季38勝 + b)去年十月季後賽被印地安人電爆兩次 ，
小王是把出風頭的時間，轉而拿去把他那顆重得跟保齡球一樣的招牌伸卡球多升幾等了。

: "[AL East teams], you are going to see them four or five times so you have
: to make adjustments because they will make adjustments on you," Girardi said.
: A year ago Wang was in line to be the Yankees' Opening Day starter until
: a hamstring popped during a routine running exercise. That delayed his
: season by three weeks.
吉拉迪(這次還是不要亂翻好了)說：
「因為會跟美聯東區的球隊碰上四五次，對方一定會針對你做調整，
  所以你自己也一定要調整。」
去年小王已經排好隊準備開幕日先發了，結果在例行的跑步訓練裡拉傷腿筋，
造成他球季晚了三週才開始。

: Now, with the playoff beatings and the arbitration hearing behind him,
: Wang is perched again to throw the first pitch of the Yankees' season on
: March 31 against the Blue Jays.
現在，季後賽的打擊跟聽證會都過去了，
小王再度準備好在3/31對藍鳥隊時投出洋基本季第一球。

: "He has a real good chance of being our Opening Day starter this year,"
: Girardi said of the soon-to-be 29-year-old right-hander with a career
: mark of 46-18 and a 3.74 ERA.
關於這個快29歲、46勝18敗、3.74投手自責分率的的右投，
吉拉迪又說：「他很有機會當我們今年開幕先發。」

: In order to keep the muscle-bound lineups of Boston and Cleveland off his
: sinker, the Yankees are coaxing Wang into improving his slider and adding
: another pitch.
為了不要讓棒棒巨砲的紅襪隊跟印地安人隊鎖定伸卡球，
洋基隊正說服小王加強滑球，然後還要再加一種球路。

: "You can continue to develop the change-up and continue to locate better,"
: Girardi said. "There are a lot of different things you can do, but he is
: pretty polished."
還是吉拉迪說的：「可以繼續養變速球，繼續練球的進壘點。
有一大堆東西可以加強，不過他已經相當精鍊了。」

: Wang said he deleted the Cleveland nightmare (0-2; 19.06 ERA) and Girardi
: hasn't seen signs otherwise.
小王說他已經把在克里夫蘭的惡夢（0勝2敗，19.06自責分率）從腦中刪除了，
在吉拉迪看來也是這個樣子。

: "I have not seen that, I don't think it did," Girardi said of Wang still
: nursing a hangover. "He struggled a little bit; so did Cy Young last year,
: C.C. Sabathia. It's going to happen."
有人問小王被打得暈頭轉向之後是不是還沒醒，
吉拉迪說：「我沒看到這種狀況，應該沒這回事。
他掙扎了一陣，不過去年的賽揚獎得主CC也一樣，這種事總是會發生。」

: According to Girardi, he doesn't have to stay in touch constantly with Wang
: to make sure his head is where it's supposed to be.
他說他不需要一直盯緊小王，注意他有沒有把腦袋忘在克里夫蘭。

: "There are those players who you don't need to say much to," Girardi said.
: "They just go out and do it."
: In Wang's case, he does it very well while sitting far in the background.
最後吉拉迪說：
「就是有那種不用跟他嘮叨太多的球員，他們自己會去搞定。」
小王就是那樣遠遠的坐在背景裡頭，就能漂亮的搞定了。
