http://0rz.tw/823Y4 Loaiza ready in relief(04/16/2008 11:13 PM ET) After most of career spent as starter, righty OK with 'pen role By Mike Scarr / MLB.com LOS ANGELES -- Esteban Loaiza has spent most of his big league career as a pitcher in a starting rotation but currently he's being asked to contribute from the bullpen. In 14 seasons, Loaiza has appeared in 370 games and started 331. Prior to this year, the veteran right-hander hadn't pitched in relief since 2004 with the Yankees, when incidentally his manager, like now, was Joe Torre. Loaiza makes no secret he'd rather start than relieve but realizes he must perform when called -- no matter the role. "I just have to concentrate on being ready every day until they tell me something. It's their decision. It's [Torre's] decision. We'll see what happens," Loaiza said. "I wasn't upset. I was never upset. I just have to be ready." Loaiza is 1-2 this season with a 4.63 ERA in three appearances that include one start. That was in his second outing of the year April 7 in Arizona, where he allowed four runs in four innings to take the loss. Hong-Chih Kuo was given the ball to start Tuesday's game against the Pirates in place of Loaiza but was pulled after four innings and 75 pitches. That opened the door for Loaiza, who came on to allow a run in five innings of relief in the Dodgers' 11-2 victory. 小小郭在本周二代替Loaiza擔任先發，投了四局花了75球即下場。接替投球的就是自從04年季後賽後再也沒有擔任後援的Loaiza，他投了五局並讓道奇以11比2獲得了勝利。 The Dodgers will hold off on the decision to name Kuo or Loaiza the starter in the slot that does not come up again until next Tuesday in Cincinnati. Torre said Kuo's performance, which included three walks and 10 straight balls at one point, will not rule him out. 第五號先發到底是Kuo還是Loaiza，道奇隊決定將這件事情延後到下周二對紅人的比賽結束後再確定。 Kuo上次的表現(雖然投滿四局包含3個保送及連續10個壞球)，但Torre還沒有將他排除在五號先發的競爭名單中。 "I didn't see him one time, even though he was wild, I didn't see him try to guide the ball over the plate. His velocity stayed about the same," Torre said of Kuo. "With a left-hander in your rotation it gives you some balance, more balance anyway. We haven't said for sure what we're going to do." "我不是第一次看他投球了，儘管他有一點不穩定，但他還是盡全力的將球投進好球帶， (這段翻的不好請見諒) 但是他的球速一直都很穩定，"Torre說， "有一個左投手在輪值先發名單當中，對於輪值是一種平衡，不管怎麼說都比全部都右投來的平衡，我們還沒有保證這名單還會不會改變。" Loaiza, who appeared on track to be the fifth starter coming out of Spring Training, won't fight the situation and agreed that his most recent outing was a bit of an audition. "[Torre] had me in the bullpen in '04 in the playoffs. I think that was the last time I was in the bullpen until now. There is still a lot of season left. I know he wants to see people perform. He knows what I am capable of doing in situations," Loaiza said. "I just have to be ready if I'm in the bullpen and go from there just like Chan Ho Park is doing now and Kuo, who got the opportunity last night. We both finished the game. We ended up winning which was the most important thing and now we just have to wait to see what he says next." Derek Lowe will start in Atlanta on Friday, when the Dodgers open a three-game series there. He will be followed by Chad Billingsley and Hiroki Kuroda with Brad Penny scheduled to start Monday in Cincinnati. -- 翻譯不好請見諒~ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.115.218.146
