[外電] 4 Reasons They Should Sweep NL MVP, Cy Young Awards
文章標題標題:4 Reasons They Should Sweep NL MVP, Cy Young Awards
全文:August ended with Matt Kemp and Clayton Kershaw reminding Dodgers fans
why they’ve been the most valuable players on their team.
八月結束了 黯淡的道奇中仍然有兩個亮點
On Aug. 27, Kemp hit his third walk-off home run of the year. Two days later,
Kershaw pitched a six-hitter against the San Diego Padres that wasn’t
dominating yet showed him at his grittiest, as he forced outs without his best
stuff.
Kemp打了本季第三支塞優那啦紅不讓 書僮六安打完投勝教士
With no pennant race to look forward to, all Dodger fans can do is try to
champion their best players to be rewarded for their efforts. I’ve tried to
lay out convincing arguments for the Bison and Young Prince winning the MVP and
Cy Young respectively, but here are more reasons to consider.
季後賽已經哭哭了 道奇球迷只能期望他們倆能夠一起拿下CYA跟MVP
Not only is Kemp co-leading in home runs, second in runs batted in and fourth
in batting average, he’s also leading in wins above replacement by almost a
full game. He’s also a member of the 30 homers/30 stolen bases club.
Kemp目前HR第一名 RBI第二名 AVG第四名 WAR也很不錯 另外他已經跨過30/30門檻了
Here’s some precedent from Triple Crown threats who fell short of the crown
yet still won the MVP award:
下面舉些幾乎拿到三冠王 然後拿到MVP的例子
* Frank Thomas (1994): second in home runs, third in RBI and batting average.
* Jeff Bagwell (1994): second in batting average and home runs, first in RBI.
* Larry Walker (1997): second in batting average, first in home runs, third
in RBI (also a member of the 30/30 club).
* Albert Pujols (2009): first in home runs, third in batting average and RBI.
Kemp is a long shot to win the batting title, needing to make up more than 10
points over the final month. But winning the home run and RBI title is well
within reach, and should he win both while staying in the top five for batting
average, he deserves to win the MVP.
Kemp要拿打擊王有困難 但前五應該不成問題 HR跟RBI王應可輕鬆奪下 他應該要得到MVP
Side note: Should Kemp win, he’d only be the sixth member of the 30/30 club
to do so (Dale Murphy in 1983, Barry Bonds in 1990 and 1992, Larry Walker in
1997 and Jimmy Rollins in 2007).
他是第六位30/30成員 (似乎排除40/40的)
While all the Triple Crown talk has surrounded Kemp, Kershaw is in the running
for the pitching Triple Crown. He’s tied for first in wins, first outright in
strikeouts and second in earned run average.
當大家都在討論Kemp的三冠王 書僮也在往這目標前進 勝投王 三振王 ERA第二
It should be pointed out that the current ERA leader—Cincinnati Reds hurler
Johnny Cueto—has pitched in nearly 60 innings less than Kershaw.
但大家要注意 ERA第一名的規頭 比書僮少投了快60局
Since the All-Star break, Kershaw has gone 8-1, including an NL-leading two
complete games, with a major-league-leading 1.32 ERA and hitters batting .204
against him. Only Ian Kennedy of the Diamondbacks has the same number of wins.
星星賽後 書僮八勝一敗(敗那場是爆炸...) 只有總統跟他拿一樣多的勝投 ERA跟被打擊率
都領先群雄
The Young Prince has an outside shot at 20 wins, and should he win and remain
in the hunt for the Triple Crown, I can’t see any reason why he can’t win.
目前書僮的目標應該就是20勝 再放眼三冠王 (要贏規頭有點難...)
Kemp and Kershaw have put up their numbers despite being surrounded by little
help. The Dodgers rank 13th (out of 16 teams) in the NL in runs scored.
而且要想到Kemp跟書僮是在孤立無援的情況下打出這種成績
Kemp has carried the Dodgers offense while Andre Ethier has struggled to
replicate his power numbers of the last two seasons. The next Dodger in home
runs behind Kemp? Rod Barajas with 14 to go along with his .239 average. If not
for the addition of Juan Rivera, Kemp’s numbers might be even lower.
因為王子這兩年炮管縮短了 Kemp一肩扛起了道奇的進攻
看看道奇全壘打排行...Kemp後面竟然是捕手Barajas...要不是有老黃來 Kemp應該更沒有
球打了(看看前幾天的4BB)
In the Dodgers rotation, Kershaw is surrounded by Hiroki Kuroda, whose 10-14
record overshadows his sub-3.00 ERA, Chad Billingsley (10-10, 4.08 ERA) and Ted
Lilly (8-13, 4.43 ERA). There’s a reason why fans have tuned in every fifth
game because Kershaw has been a guaranteed win, while his mates have been
unpredictable.
看看道奇的先發輪值 悲情的黑田 不穩的小畢 全壘打製造機Lilly...
所以可以了解到道奇球迷五天看一次球的原因了
Both players rank in the top 10 for wins above replacement. If you add
Kershaw’s win total with Kemp’s four walk-off hits, they add up to nearly
one-third of the Dodgers win total.
書僮的勝投 Kemp的再見打 幾乎就佔了道奇整季的三分之一勝場
The Dodgers' season started on a terrible note with the terrible beating of
Giants fan Bryan Stow on Opening Day. It’s gotten worse with owner Frank
McCourt’s divorce proceedings and MLB’s takeover of the financial operations
of the franchise.
這季的道奇淒慘無比 開季打巨人迷的事件 戴綠帽老闆的離婚官司 搞到聯盟要接管球隊
的財務
Nothing is worse than watching Dodger games this past month and seeing empty
seats litter the stadium. It’s a shame that few fans celebrate moments like
Kemp’s recent walk-off home run, James Loney’s power surge or Kershaw’s
brilliance.
但最慘的是看到道奇球場 球迷越來越少 沒有多少人在球場慶祝Kemp的塞優那啦紅不讓
寂寞男孩偶爾出現的全壘打以及書僮主宰球場的表現
Having Kemp and Kershaw win the MVP and Cy Young would add a silver lining to
one of the most disappointing Dodger seasons in 20 years.
Kemp拿MVP 書僮拿CYA 大概是這二十年來最失望的球季中唯一的亮點
The last time a team swept the Cy Young and MVP awards was 2006, when Johan
Santana and Justin Morneau won for the Minnesota Twins. The Dodgers did it in
1988 when Kirk Gibson and Orel Hershiser led them to the World Series.
上一次球隊包辦了MVP跟CYA是2006的事-雙城的山大王跟猛牛
道奇1988也有過-Gibson跟Hershiser 那年更拿下來世界冠軍(最後一次...)
Matt Kemp and Clayton Kershaw are threatening to win the NL hitting and
pitching Triple Crowns. Rarely has a team had two players vying for both,
and in a season where there hasn’t been much to cheer in Dodgertown, they’ve
done more than enough to distinguish themselves among their peers.
兩個人都在追逐三冠王
很少球隊戰績這麼爛 卻有兩位這麼好球員的情況
Voters shouldn’t look at the Dodgers’ record in judging how well both have
played this year. Just look at the numbers and the impact Kemp and Kershaw have
had on the team, and there’s no reason not to reward them both in spite of
what’s around them.
各位投票的記者們 不要管道奇今年打的多爛 應該要注意到的是書僮跟Kemp他們倆對球隊
的影響 實在沒有理由不投給他們呀~
