Culture in Phillies clubhouse frustrated new Yanks pitcher

Lidle 期待人生的新舞台
費城人隊的球風曾讓這位洋基新投手感到灰心

NEW YORK -- Cory Lidle hasn't set foot in the Yankees' clubhouse yet, but he
has already made it clear that his attitude reflects that of his new
teammates: anything short of winning is unacceptable.

Lidle 人還沒到達洋基的球員俱樂部，但是他對他新隊友的態度已經表示的很清楚了：
給我勝利，其餘免談。

It may seem like an obvious attitude for a professional athlete, but Lidle
believes that his former teammates in Philadelphia didn't always share that
same passion.

這樣的態度對一個職業球員來說應該是理所當然的，但 Lidle 覺得他之前在費城人隊的
隊友們似乎不是每一天都以這樣的熱情來面對比賽。

"I'm the kind of player who goes to the field every day expecting to win,"
Lidle said. "Over the last few years, I haven't had a clubhouse that expected
to win with me. On days I was pitching, it was almost a coin flip as to
whether the guys behind me were going to be there to play 100 percent.

”我是一個每次出場都期望能贏得勝利的球員，”Lidle 說著，”不過在過去的幾年中，
我還沒待過有哪一支球隊是期望我能替他們拿下勝投的。每當我上場投球的時候，就好像
在丟銅板一樣，我不知道站在我背後的隊友是不是將他們全部的實力發揮出來比賽。”

"I know that's not going to be the deal here in New York," he continued.
"That's the reason I'm most excited to come over here. I think I'll fit in
well and be able to take my game to the next level."

”然而我知道在洋基是不會發生這種情況的，”Lidle 接著說道，”這就是為什麼我對被
交易來這裡感到興奮的原因，我想我能順利地融入這裡並且將我的實力發揮得更淋漓盡致
。”

Lidle steps into an ideal situation, slotting into the No. 5 spot in the
rotation behind Mike Mussina, Randy Johnson, Chien-Ming Wang and Jaret
Wright. Lidle replaces Sidney Ponson, who moved to the bullpen to replace
Shawn Chacon (traded to Pittsburgh) as the long man.

Lidle 遇上了完美的情況，取代了 Ponson 成為先發輪值表上在 Moose、RJ、Wang 以及
Wright 之後的第五號先發投手的位置。而被取代的 Ponson 則接手 Chacon 在被交易到
匹茲堡海盜隊之後所留下的長中繼投手的位置。

"Ponson wanted to stay and be a part of this, so he'll swing over to the
bullpen," general manager Brian Cashman said while discussing the deal that
sent Chacon to the Pirates for Craig Wilson. "That opened up the situation
that developed here late in the deadline."

當球隊經理 Cashman 在談論到以 Chacon 向海盜隊換來 Wilson 的這筆交易時他表示，
”Ponson 希望能夠繼續做為這個隊上的一份子，所以他將被轉移至牛棚來貢獻他的戰力
。交易的結果使得我們的投手陣容在731大限來臨前演變成現在所看到的樣子。”

Lidle went 8-7 with a 4.74 ERA for Philadelphia in the first four months of
the season. His 125 1/3 innings pitched led the Phillies' staff, though he
would rank fourth on New York's list. The Yankees are hoping that Lidle can
provide six or seven solid innings per start, giving their offense a chance
to do its damage and not have to climb out of a hole.

在今年球季的前四個月中 Lidle 在費城人隊所拿下的戰績是８勝７負，防禦率 4.74。
他是費城人隊上投手群中出賽局數最多的一個，一共投了 125 又三分之一局，不過這樣
的投球局數在洋基將只排在第四位。洋基隊希望 Lidle 每次先發都能為球隊帶來堅固的
６～７局，好讓他的隊友能有機會向對手施展暴力造成傷害，而不是要從落後的泥沼中
攀爬出來。

"The expectations are going to be a lot different, and that's what I'm most
excited about," Lidle said. "A lot of the other guys in [the Phillies']
clubhouse didn't all go there with one goal in mind. Everyone liked to win,
but they didn't expect to win. I think being with 24 other guys that come to
the clubhouse every day and expect to win will raise my level of play."

Lidle 說，”新隊友對我的期待將和過去我所感受到的大不相同，而這正是我感到最興
奮的地方。在費城人隊的許多老隊友在比賽時並沒有什麼目標，每個人都喜歡贏球，只
是他們並不期待自己能贏。我想，待在一支身邊每個隊友每次出賽目標就是要拿下勝利
的球隊，能夠讓我在場上的付出得到更多的回饋。”

Lidle has pitched in the American League before, and pitched well for that
matter. His best season came in 2001 with Oakland, as he went 13-6 with a
3.59 ERA in 29 starts. The A's made the postseason that fall, but Lidle was
torched for four runs in 3 1/3 innings in his only start -- a Division Series
loss to the Yankees.

在這之前 Lidle 也曾經在美聯出賽過，事實上還投得不錯。他表現最好的一個球季是在
2001 年奧克蘭運動家隊，當時他一共出賽了 29 場，拿下了 13 勝 6 負防禦率 3.59 
的成績。那年運動家隊順利地打入了季後賽，不過在分區賽中就遭到了洋基隊的淘汰，
Lidle 只出賽了一場在 3 又三分之一局中就被打掉了 4 分。

"As long as I do my homework and have a plan -- and I believe in that plan --
I've been able to execute my pitches to a pretty high percentage," Lidle
said. "As long as I do that, I don't think there will be any kind of hard
adjustment to come back to the American League."

”只要我將我份內的練習給做好，並且依照我自己所相信的計畫來做，我認為我能夠控
制我自己的投球而且投得很好。而只要我做得到我所說的，我想，要調整回到美聯來投
球並不件困難的事。”Lidle 表示。

Lidle's first opportunity to help his new team will come Thursday, when he
takes the ball at Yankee Stadium against the Blue Jays. That gives him two
games to get a feel for his new surroundings, though he didn't sound like
that would be a chore for him.

這個星期四 Lidle 將有第一次機會來幫助他的新東家，他將在洋基主場先發主投對上
多倫多藍鳥隊。在這之前還有兩場比賽的時間讓 Lidle 來適應這個新環境，雖然他聽
起來似乎不認為這是件太困難的事情。

"This is unbelievable," he said. "I had heard my name for a couple of weeks,
from teams like the Twins and Brewers, but never heard anything about the
Yankees until Monday morning. I'm as happy as I have ever been in my Major
League career."

Lidle 說，”我真不敢相信，這幾個星期以來我一直聽到一些關於我的交易謠傳，可能
的對象包括了雙城隊以及釀酒人隊等。然而一直到星期一早上之前從來沒聽說過洋基也
對我有興趣。在我的大聯盟職業生涯中我再也沒這麼高興過了。”
