simulated game

[EdJay (會冷會冷果實能力者)]

剛好看到 mailbag 在解釋 simulated game 就順便貼上來
不然不太了他們到底在幹嗎~~

A simulated game is designed to benefit the pitcher and allow him to work in
a controlled environment. Usually Rothschild stands behind the pitcher on the
mound, and two or three hitters rotate against the pitcher.

For example, on April 30 in Houston, Borowski faced teammates Jose Macias
and Ronny Cedeno. The number of pitches thrown is determined by Rothschild,
depending on what the pitcher needs. When Macias got a "hit" -- there weren't
any players in the field -- he stepped out and Cedeno stepped in. The entire
process is designed to simulate a game.

Rothschild also will call out situations -- man on first, one out, for
example. It gets a pitcher thinking about game situations. During the season,
they play sim games on the main field and a few hours before the game starts.

裡面有一堆球迷問
既然 Wood 投了三局五局手臂就會不適
那麼可不可能把他放在 closer 的位置
回答大概是 Wood 如果健康而且在正常狀況下
他能夠吃局數能三振打者也是球賽的常勝軍及聯盟中強悍的競爭者
Wood 的第一選擇當然是把他放在 rotation 裡
現在投手教練正在想辦法試著修正他的 mechanics
讓他不要這麼容易受傷
當然是否代表不可能把他擺在 closer 上
never say never!!

1. No theory is perfect and forever.
2. It is legal and, indeed, desirable to question any accepted theory.
3. Any theory is better than no theory at all.
4. It is crucial to persevere to prove the worth of a new theory.
