Re: [外電] Wang shows signs of life

[Ronald72 (鄉民...)]

※ 引述《Ally1213 (牧羊貓 XD)》之銘言：

: Wang shows signs of life
: NEW YORK – Like a wave crashing onto the beach, full of sound and fury
: before retreating in silence, the Chien-Ming Wang crisis (mostly) has played
: itself out. His velocity is again in the mid-90s, he’s back to throwing
: ground balls and earned at least another start, if not a long-term berth in
: the rotation.

  就像一波海浪往沙灘拍去，在無聲退去之前，王建民的危機有如驚濤駭浪，
  而現在他的危機就像海浪一般退去了。建仔此場球速仍維持約95英哩，
  他又能像往常般製造滾地出局，並為自己贏得下一場先發機會，如果建仔沒做到上述
  將可能又會被排除在先發輪值表外。

: This isn’t to say Wang worked a classic against the Nationals on Wednesday
: night; he clearly was outpitched by John Lannan in a teaser of a 3-2 loss to
: the major leagues’ worst team. But that was an indictment of the offense,
: not Wang, whose five innings (three runs, six hits, two walks) represented
: progress from his ash-heap days of early April.

  這並不說建仔在周三對國民隊的比賽中，投出了一場經典好球。他的表現明顯被John
  Lannan比了下去，並像是嘲諷般的以一分之差敗給大聯盟戰績最差的國民隊。
  但輸球是打線未發揮的問題，不是建仔的錯；跟四月初一蹋糊塗的成績相比，
  建仔今日投滿五局，成績是失三分、被擊出六安打、兩次保送，證明了有一定的進步。

: Joe Girardi noted that 10 of Wang’s 15 outs were grounders, saying, “That’s
: a real good sign.” So the intrigue begins: How do the Yankees take advantage
: of Wang’s recovering sinker, Phil Hughes’ blistering fastball and Joba
: Chamberlain’s volatility?

  Giradi提到15個出局數中，包含了10次的滾地球出局，他表示這是個好現象。
  但現在「有趣的」來了，洋基隊要如何在建仔回神的伸卡球、休斯與小張的快速球中
  作出抉擇呢？

: Make no mistake, how the Yankees arrange these three chess pieces will go a
: long way in determining how (and where) they fin ish in October.
: The Bombers’ rotation started the night with a 4.86 ERA, 12th in the
: American League, which means something has to give.

  在十月來臨前，洋基還有一段長時間來好好安排這三名投手。(後面看無 XD)

: So why not use Wang and Hughes in the rotation together, and return
: Chamberlain to the eighth inning, where he starred as the bridge to Mariano
: Rivera? It’s a long-running debate – OK, more like a filibuster – to which
: general manager Brian Cashman never will yield. But Joba’s last start
: against the Mets and his communication problems with Jorge Posada should jar
: the front office out of its iron belief that Joba is an unmovable100-pitch
: entity.

  既然那麼難排，怎麼不把建仔與休斯同列先發，把小張放在第八局固守，
  然後在以李維拉守成呢？這是個老話題了，不過更像是個現金人不會同意的
  「ㄘㄨㄥˋㄎㄤ」。而小張上場先發對大都會隊以及他與厚黑間的溝通問題，讓上層
  動搖了對他永遠是個百mile投手的信念。

: He’s a talented but a stubborn, if not a combustible personality who might
: not ever feel comfortable with Posada. Either the Yankees designate Francisco
: Cervelli as Joba’s permanent catcher, or else they simplify Chamberlain’s
: life by using him in the eighth inning and limiting his arsenal to his two
: best weapons: the fastball and that killer slider.

  小張是個有天分卻固執的傢伙，如果不是他的火爆脾氣，跟厚黑的搭配應該沒啥問題。
  洋基隊要嘛就是指派Cervelli為喬巴的專用捕手，不嘛就是讓他擔任第八局布局，
  讓他盡力發揮速球和殺人slider。

: Somehow, Chamberlain has fallen in love with his third-best pitch, the
: curveball, and it made for an uncomfortable rift with Posada on Friday
: against the Mets. The two simply couldn’t agree – Posada kept calling for
: the heater, Joba kept shaking him off – until the lines of communication
: collapsed altogether.

  不知怎樣，喬巴似乎愛上了他的第三種球路，曲球，這也在禮拜五對大都會隊時，
  造成與厚黑的決裂。這兩個傢伙就是不合，厚黑要他的火球，喬巴卻直搖頭，
  直到召開會議。

: So how does this impact Hughes? Only that Wang’s work-in-progress gives the
: Yankees the option of using them both in the rotation. Had Wang failed, it’s
: likely he would’ve been demoted to long relief (or, who knows, even returned
: to the disabled list with another mystery injury) and Hughes would’ve been
: installed as the de facto No. 5 starter.

  那麼這樣會怎麼影響休斯呢？唯有建仔的逐漸恢復會給洋基隊讓他兩手牽手
  作先發的選擇。但若建仔無法恢復身手，他可能將會被長期下放，抑或是以某謎樣的傷
  ，再進入傷兵名單，天曉得。那麼休斯就會坐穩第五號先發的位置了。

: But that would’ve meant keeping Joba in the rotation, where he has been
: good, but not the ace-in-training the Yankees have been envisioning. As noted
: recently by waswatching.com, there are numbers that suggest the Bombers may
: have overestimated Chamberlain’s durability and effectiveness taking the
: ball every fifth day.

  那麼這樣一來，洋基就要把喬巴拉回他做得不錯先發輪值了，但這樣卻不是洋基想預見
  的ACE養成計畫。誠如waswatching.com所說，已經有數人說Bomber(誰啊XD)高估了對
  小張每五天先發的續航力和有效性。
