: BOSTON, July 14 - The Yankees took a body blow before the first pitch of
: the second half of the season on Thursday. Chien-Ming Wang, the rookie
: who has been the Yankees' most consistent starter since his promotion
: from the minors in April, may be finished for the season because of a
: shoulder injury.
: General Manager Brian Cashman would not say if Wang would pitch again
: this season. Cashman would not reveal the Yankees' diagnosis of Wang's
: shoulder injury, but a magnetic resonance imaging exam on Monday was
: discouraging enough for the team to send Wang to Dr. James Andrews,
: an orthopedic surgeon.
: Wang will meet with Andrews on Monday in Birmingham, Ala., for a second
: opinion. Wang, 25, has a history of shoulder trouble; he had surgery to
: repair a torn labrum in 2001 and missed the whole season.
: Asked when Wang would return, Manager Joe Torre said: "It'd be strictly
: a guess. I can't tell you if we're going to get him back in three weeks
: or next spring. I don't know which one is closer to the truth. It's just
: sad, for me, because he's been so consistent."
: Wang threw in the bullpen on Sunday, and the pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre
: said he detected no problems. But Wang woke up on Monday with shoulder pain,
: and his agent, Alan Chang, reported the condition to Cashman that day. Wang
: was in New York on Thursday.
: "He's just trying to stay positive and hoping the situation will improve,"
: Chang said.
: Chang was as secretive as Cashman about the specifics of Wang's injury.
: Asked if the injury was in the same area as the 2001 injury, Chang had
: no comment. He would also not say if he expected Wang, who is 6-3 with
: a 3.89 earned run average, to pitch again this season.
: The Yankees promoted the right-hander Tim Redding from Class AAA Columbus
: to start in Wang's place on Friday against the Boston Red Sox. The Yankees
: acquired Redding with Darrell May from San Diego for Paul Quantrill on July 2.
: For the moment, the Yankees' rotation consists of Mike Mussina, Redding
: and Randy Johnson. The team does not have a starter for Sunday or Monday.
: Kevin Brown, who has missed a month because of a strained lower back, is
: an outside possibility for Monday but is more likely to come back later
: next week. Brown will throw in the bullpen on Friday in Tampa, Fla., and
: Cashman said the Yankees would know more then.
: Two other starters besides Wang are down with shoulder injuries: Carl
: Pavano and Jaret Wright. Pavano is in Tampa for his rehabilitation, and
: Cashman said he would not be ready for the Yankees for at least two weeks.
: Wright, who has not pitched since April 23, continues to recover slowly
: and will not be back until August, Cashman said.
: In keeping with the shoulder theme, Redding missed five weeks this season
: because of a shoulder strain. He won his only start for Columbus, allowing
: two earned runs in five innings, but he was 0-5 with a 9.10 E.R.A. for the
: Padres. A 10-game winner for Houston in 2003, Redding was thrilled to be a
: Yankee.
: "I'm from Rochester," he said. "I grew up watching half of these coaches in
: here fighting for the pennant. I could die today a happy man putting the
: Yankee uniform on for the first time."
: Redding was lined up to pitch on Friday for Columbus, and his start here
: will be the first time Stottlemyre will have seen him pitch. Torre said
: he did not know anything about Redding "other than he has a pretty good
: arm."
: Torre and Stottlemyre said Tanyon Sturtze and Darrell May were possibilities
: to start on Sunday and Monday. But the Yankees prefer Sturtze in the bullpen
: and were not encouraged by May's first start with the team last Saturday.
: Cashman said he had been trying to acquire pitching help from outside the
: organization, and those efforts could intensify with the injury to Wang.
: The Yankees have told teams they are not desperate to make a deal, but
: there is obvious urgency to their situation, and they may have to consider
: trading for Al Leiter, who was designated for assignment by Florida on
: Thursday.
: Leiter, 39, was 3-7 with a 6.64 E.R.A. for the Marlins, with 60 walks and
: 52 strikeouts in 80 innings. The Denver Post also reported that the Yankees
: had discussed a trade for the Colorado Rockies right-hander Shawn Chacon,
: who is 1-5 with a 4.30 E.R.A. this season.

洋基在下半季第一場球賽尚未開打前就遭受重大打擊。王建民可能因肩傷而本季
報銷,王四月自小聯盟升上來後一直是洋基最穩定的先發投手。球隊經理Cashman
拒絕表示王本季是否還會出賽,也不肯透露洋基對王建民的肩傷診斷,然而週一
的核磁共振檢查結果顯然並不樂觀,洋基才會決定把王送交Dr. James Andrews
做進一步檢查。王將在下週一接受Andrews邠d,尋求不同的診斷意見。現年25歲
的王建民曾有肩傷記錄,並在2001年因接受肩唇撕裂修補手術而錯過整個球季。
當總教練Torre被問及王何時歸隊,他表示:「現在一切都只能憑臆測,我不知道
他會在三週內回來還是要等到明年,我也不知道那個可能性比較大。當然我覺得
很難過,因為他表現一直很穩定。」
王週日還在牛棚練投,投手教練Mel Stottlemyre說他並未察覺任何異狀,但王
週一醒來後覺得肩膀疼痛,而他的經紀人張嘉元當天就將這個情形告知Cashman.
王週四的時候仍在紐約。
張嘉元表示:「他現在只能保持樂觀,希望情況會好轉。」張嘉元跟Cashman一樣
不肯透露王的傷勢細節。當被問到是否跟2001年的舊傷部位相同時,張沒有回答。
他也沒有說截至目前六勝三敗、防禦率3.89的王建民本季是否還會上場投球。
洋基從3A調上右投Tim Redding取代王於週五對紅襪先發。洋基在七月二日以Paul
Quantrill與聖地牙哥教士隊交易來Redding與Darrell May。目前洋基的先發投手
群只有Mussina, Redding和Randy Johnson, 現在還排不出週日和週一的先發人選。
