A record 12 million votes were cast, eclipsing last year's total of 9.6 million. 郭所得到的上述獎項是由State Farm所提供，完全由球迷票選的。今年總共有1200萬的票數，遠超過去年的960萬總票數。 Kuo won with 30.3 percent of the vote. He was followed by Grant Balfour of the Rays (19.2 percent), Carlos Marmol of the Cubs (17.6), Scot Shields of the Angels (7.5), Brad Ziegler of the Athletics (6.1), Scott Downs of the Blue Jays (4.9), Mike Adams of the Padres (4.5), Dan Wheeler of the Rays (4.2), Taylor Buchholz of the Rockies (3.8) and Chad Qualls of the Diamondbacks (2.1). 郭贏得了30.3%的選票。在他之後的排名依序是…(下略) Kuo went 5-3 with a 2.14 ERA and his first career save in 42 games (including three starts), allowing only 60 hits in a career-high 80 innings while striking out 96 and only walking 21. His relief ERA of 1.69 led the league (minimum of 50 innings), and opponents hit only .204 against him. 郭本季42場共5勝3負，ERA 2.14，並且拿到了生涯第一個救援成功。80局生涯最多的投球局數裡，只被打了60隻安打，三振96次但只投出21次保送。他的後援ERA 1.69是聯盟首位(列入排名最低局數為50局)，並且被打擊率只有.204。 As impressive as those numbers were, what really mattered was he stayed healthy. Kuo was signed out of Taiwan for $1.25 million as a teenager, blew out his elbow in his first professional game after striking out seven of the 10 batters he faced and it's been a wild ride ever since. That includes the first five years he spent trying to get healthy, when he pitched a total of 42 1/3 innings (averaging fewer than nine innings per year). 如同他的帳面成績一樣令人印象深刻的是，他本季身體狀況保持健康。郭青少年時期在台灣以125萬美金簽約，但是在K掉他面對的首位10名打者中的7位後，手肘就爆掉惹(囧)，但那樣的投球表現真的是有史以來最瘋狂的。所以他花了生涯前五年的時間來試著找回健康的狀態，以致於總共才投了42又3分之1局(平均一年還不到9局)。 He's nothing if not persistent. Kuo signed in 1999, meaning he's been in the organization longer than any current active Dodgers player other than Jason Repko, who signed a week earlier. That year, Kevin Malone was general manager, Davey Johnson the field manager and Gary Sheffield and Eric Karros hit 34 home runs -- each. 如果他沒有堅持下去，那他只會是個無名小卒。郭在1999年簽約，代表他在這個團隊裡比25人名單裡的任何人都待得久。除了比郭早一個星期簽約的Jason Repko。在那年，Kevin Malone是GM，Davey Johnson是(總)教練(？)，嘴砲薛跟Eric Karros 則各打了34支HR。 Kuo's journey to the Major Leagues hit one pothole after another. He missed 2003 entirely, was taken off the Major League roster at one point and could have been selected by any club in the Rule 5 Draft. When his rehab stalled for the umpteenth time, he had to be talked out of quitting the game. He has often credited Darren Dreifort (who underwent two Tommy John surgeries) and Eric Gagne (one) for their advice and counsel to keep him going. As recently as 2007, he had rotator cuff problems and elbow surgery, and his career was in jeopardy. 郭闖盪MLB的路途簡直是坑坑巴巴的。他錯過了2003整個球季，被移出球隊的40人名單而且沒有任何球隊透過規則五選秀選進他。當他經過無數次的復健且狀況不見好轉，他的退意受到了勸阻。他總是將自己能堅持走下去的功勞，歸於來自Darren Dreifort(開了兩次TJ)和剛爺(開了一次)的建言。最近於2007，他又遇到了旋轉肌跟手肘手術(清碎片？)的麻煩，使他的棒球生涯陷入危機。 But Kuo is nothing if not determined. He showed up for Spring Training in 2008 with a new manager and not really being counted on for anything. He caught Joe Torre's eye with two scoreless innings of relief against the Padres during the Dodgers' goodwill series in China, and he made the club with a 1.69 spring ERA while holding opponents to a .121 average. 但郭堅持下去才有今天。他參加了2008的春訓，並且由於來了個新教頭，他完全沒有任何的依靠。在中國與教士進行的春訓賽事中，郭後援了兩局並吸引了托瑞的注意力並且幫助道奇的春訓ERA維持在1.69，且被平均打擊率只有.121。 Because of Kuo's injury history, Torre treated the native of Taiwan like fine China early on. When he used Kuo in multiple innings, the manager tried to give him multiple days off. In games in which Kuo pitched multiple innings, his ERA was 0.38. His longest outing was 4 1/3 innings, and in one game he struck out eight of the 11 batters he retired. By June, Kuo had supplanted Joe Beimel as the club's primary left-handed reliever. 因為郭的傷病史，托瑞如同對待精細的瓷器一般的小心使用他。當他讓郭投了超過一局，他就會試著讓郭有多幾天的休息時間。郭在超過一局的投球裡，他的ERA只有0.38。他最長的投球局數是4又3分之1局，而且在某一場比賽裡在他投球之下出局的人有8個是被他K掉。到了六月，郭取代了Joe Beimel成為道奇的主戰後援左投。 The workload finally got to Kuo. He was limited to only one appearance from early September to early October, missing the first round of the playoffs, because of triceps discomfort, but he returned for the National League Championship Series and allowed one earned run in three innings. 但投球的負擔還是對郭有點影響。因為三頭肌不適，他在九月上旬到十月上旬這一段時間被限制上場，所以只出賽了一場並錯過季後賽第一輪。但他隨後回到國聯冠軍戰在三局的投球裡失掉一分。有翻錯就請多包涵囉。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.59.125.143 ※ 編輯: KeeperOf7Key 來自: 61.59.125.143 (12/19 13:04) ※ 編輯: KeeperOf7Key 來自: 61.59.125.143 (12/19 13:06) 有修到推文歹勢啦~ ※ 編輯: KeeperOf7Key 來自: 61.59.125.143 (12/19 13:06)
