When all was said and done, the Yankees used 14 different : starting pitchers, including nine who made nine or more starts. : 上一季洋基隊面對的是幾乎每一位先發投手的受傷 從Mussina的手肘 : 到Pavano Wright 和王建民的肩傷 這一切讓洋基隊動用了14位不同的先發投手 : 其中有九位投超過九場先發 : In fact, the only member of the rotation not to miss any significant time in : 2005 was Randy Johnson, who led the team with 34 starts and 225 2/3 innings : pitched. : 事實上在2005 只有一位先發投手沒有漏掉任何一場重要比賽 : 那就是Randy Johnson 他先發34場 投了225 2/3局 : The Big Unit will assume the role of staff ace for a second straight year, : hoping to improve on his first season in pinstripes. Johnson's year certainly : wasn't bad, as he went 17-8 with a 3.79 ERA, holding opponents to a .243 : average. : 大個兒在洋基隊的第二年 被設定為隊上的王牌投手 : 並寄望他能改善他穿條紋衣第一年的表現 : 他表現得並不差 戰績17勝8敗 防禦率3.79 被打擊率.243 : But for the five-time Cy Young Award winner, his season was not up to his : standards. History suggests that the first year with the Yankees can be a big : adjustment year, and Johnson clearly wasn't himself in the first half of the : season, going 9-6 with a 4.16 ERA in 19 starts before the All-Star break. : 但對於五屆賽揚獎得主來說 上一季並沒有達到他的水準 : 從過去的歷史來看 在洋基的第一年是適應期 大個兒在上半季顯然不是他自己 : 明星賽前 19場先發 戰績9勝6敗 防禦率4.16 : Some mechanical adjustments and familiarity with opposing teams helped : Johnson look more like himself after the break, as he went 8-2 with a 3.31 : ERA in 15 starts. : 經過一些體能上的調整和對對手的熟悉 在明星賽休息後大個兒達到他應有的水準 : 15場先發 戰績8勝2敗 防禦率3.31 : The biggest question mark surrounding Johnson isn't the velocity on his : fastball or how he'll adjust to working with Jorge Posada now that John : Flaherty is gone. It's simply whether the left-hander, who turned 42 in : September, can continue to stay healthy and dominate at his age. : 關於大個兒的最大問號不是他快速球的速度或是他在Flaherty離隊後如何和Posada配合 : 而是這位在九月就42歲的左投手 能否保持健康 並在這樣的年紀宰制球賽 : Age is also quickly becoming a factor for Mussina, who is entering the final : year of his six-year contract. Mussina, who turned 37 in December, has : battled arm injuries over the past two years, and he has fallen short of the : 200-inning mark in each of those seasons after topping 200 for nine : consecutive years. : 年齡也是Mussina很快就要面對的問題 今年將是他六年合約的最後一年 : 這位老將在12月就滿37歲 過去兩年都曾受傷 : 讓他連續九年每年出賽超過200局的紀錄中斷 : What Mussina has going for him is the wide range of pitches he has in his : arsenal, making a slight drop in velocity less of an issue than it would be : for a power pitcher. Even though he doesn't possess the low-to-mid-90s heater : he once did, he averaged 7.11 strikeouts per nine innings last year, just : slightly below his 7.17 career average. : Mussina向來以他軍火庫中多種球路聞名 : 但他在球速上有些下滑 並以強力投手來說少些球種(???有點不懂) : 即便如此 他不再擁有他曾有過最低到90以下的球路(???又不懂了) : 他去年平均九局7.11的三振數也低於他生涯的平均7.17 : Mussina still has the impeccable control that has been his trademark over the : past 15 years, making him a tough matchup for any hitter. He throws : everything there is to throw, even working a splitter into his game over the : past two or three years. : Mussisa仍然擁有過去15年他的註冊商標--無懈可擊的控球 : 讓他成為一位讓打者頭痛的傢伙 : 他幾乎可以投出任何球 即便splitter是他過去兩三年才開始使用的球種 : Like Johnson, the question hovering over Mussina's head is his ability to : stay healthy and make 35 starts. His elbow problems appear to be behind him, : but the Yankees will certainly keep a close eye on him. : 像大個兒一樣 Mussina首要關注的問題是健康達成35場先發 : 他的手肘問題似乎被他拋在腦後 但洋基隊絕對會緊盯住 : After the two veterans, it's a five-man race for the final three spots in the : rotation. Wang and Chacon, who impressed Torre and the Yankees with their : performances in both the regular season and the playoffs, should be able to : capture two of them as long as they have decent showings during Spring : Training. : 兩位老將之後 是五搶三的局面 : 王先生和夏先生在例行賽和季後賽的表現讓老教頭Torre和洋基隊印象深刻 : 只要他們春訓表現正常應該可以搶下兩個位置 : Wang was the Yankees' most consistent pitcher in the first half, going 6-3 : with a 3.89 ERA before he was placed on the disabled list after the All-Star : break with a shoulder injury. It looked like surgery would be necessary for : the 25-year-old, but the team opted to rest him instead, and the problem took : care of itself. : 在明星賽前王建民是洋基隊最穩定的投手 戰績六勝三敗防禦率3.89 : 但在明星賽後他因肩傷被放入傷兵名單 : 原本25歲的他似乎需要動手術 但球隊選擇讓他休息 讓傷勢自己復原 : Wang went just 2-2 after returning late in the season, but he pitched well : in the Division Series, allowing one earned run in 6 2/3 innings against the : Angels. Given the Yankees' refusal to part with him in the offseason, he is : likely to land a spot in the rotation. : 在季末復出後小王戰績兩勝兩敗 但他在分區賽中表現良好 對天使隊投球6 2/3局 : 責失一分 即使洋基在季後賽失利 相信王建民在先發輪值中仍佔有一席之地 : ------------------------------講完咱們小王就不想多說分隔線--------- : Chacon, who was 1-7 for Colorado before being dealt to the Yankees at the : trade deadline, turned his season -- and possibly his career -- around once : he put on the pinstripes. : The 28-year-old right-hander went 7-3 with a 2.85 ERA in 13 games (12 starts) : for the Yankees, helping make up for injuries to Mussina, Pavano, Wright and : Wang. He also showed some guts in the playoffs, starting a must-win Game 4 : against the Angels and allowing just two runs in 6 1/3 innings. : **以上介紹Chacon英勇事蹟** : Assuming that Wang and Chacon win spots in the rotation, that leaves Pavano, : Wright and Small for the final spot. The best bet is Pavano, assuming that : his shoulder is back at full strength. : 假設王先生和夏先生取得先發輪值 那麼就剩下Pavano Wright 和小先生搶剩下的一席 : 機會最大的是Pavano (假設他的肩傷復原狀況下) : Pavano's first year with the Yankees didn't go as he had hoped it would, : as he went 4-6 with a 4.77 ERA in the first three months before missing the : second half with rotator cuff tendinitis. : A lot was expected of Pavano, who signed a four-year, $39.95 million deal : last winter, but he never seemed comfortable in the Bronx. Whether it was the : pressure or his shoulder, that remains to be seen. But given his massive : contract, the Yankees aren't likely to send him to the bullpen if he's able : to take the ball. : **大致是說Pavano去年的狀況 並不適應洋基隊 也不知是因為受傷還是壓力 : 而洋基花了大錢簽的人 只要他還能投球應該不會丟去牛棚 : Wright, on the other hand, will probably land in a long-relief role, despite : the three-year, $21 million pact he inked last winter. Wright struggled with : consistency when he did pitch -- which wasn't all that much. : Shoulder problems limited Wright to just 13 starts, as he went 5-5 with a : 6.08 ERA in those games. Wright will provide insurance against injury for the : Yankees, and based on last season, that is something they can use. : **Wright雖然也是花了不少錢 但比起來還是可以丟牛棚當長中繼 : 還有他肩傷的問題要注意 : It almost doesn't seem fair that the reward for a perfect 10-0 season -- all : in the second half -- would be a spot in the bullpen, but that is likely : where Small will be headed come Opening Day. : Small's miraculous run was one of the feel-good stories of the 2005 season, : as the 34-year-old journeyman helped hold things together for the : injury-ravaged staff. Small made 15 appearances for New York, including nine : starts. : Of course, given what Small has gone through during his career, a spot on a : big-league roster is reward enough. Of the starters, Small is the best fit : for a bullpen role, as he has the versatility to pitch short relief, long : relief, make a spot start or fill in for someone in the rotation. He should : remain a valuable asset for New York's staff. : **對去年戰績十勝的小先生來說丟牛棚好像不太公平 : 但對三十四歲還在大小聯盟浮沉的他來說 能在大聯盟先發名單上就是極大的獎勵 : 在牛棚裡他可以是長短中繼 他也是洋基隊值得投資的一員 : **以上...好久沒做的官網文章翻譯... -- Die-Hard ATL Fan........ -- ╭──── Origin:<不良牛牧場> bbs.badcow.com.tw (210.200.247.200)─────╮ Welcome to SimFarm BBS -- From : [203.66.244.96] ◣◣◢ ◢◢不良牛免費撥接→電話:40586000→帳號:zoo→密碼:zoo ◣◣─╯
