Yankees' Hughes, Kennedy looking to rebound 振作吧！大弟與阿甘 http://tinyurl.com/az7x9w TAMPA, Fla. - Phil Hughes and Ian Kennedy came to Tampa last February with their names penciled into the Yankees' starting rotation. 去年二月，大弟跟阿甘到坦帕灣報到春訓時，他們的名字被寫在洋基隊的先發輪值群裡。 But injuries and ineffectiveness combined to ruin both their seasons; they went a combined 0-8 with a 7.45 ERA, allowing 93 hits and 41 walks in 73 2/3 innings. 但是傷與無效的投球毀了他倆人的球季，兩個人加起來0勝8敗，防禦率7.45，73又 2/3的投球局數裡，被安打數93，41次保送 Now, after the offseason additions of CC Sabathia and A.J. Burnett, Hughes, 22, and Kennedy, 24, are back in camp with very little chance of making the rotation if the other starters stay healthy. 季後補強了C.C.和A.J.B.，大弟與阿甘要擠進先發輪值的機率微乎其微 But despite the reality that Hughes and Kennedy probably are ticketed for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the two pitchers and those around them say they are preparing with the big leagues in mind. 不過儘管這兩人最可能留在3A，他們還是會為上大聯盟做心理準備 "I like it," Kennedy said of needing to push his way in. "I like the competition part. I feel better now than I ever have as a pitcher. I just feel more complete than I ever did before." 談到需要努力去爭取大聯盟的一席之地，阿甘說："我喜歡。我喜歡競爭這部分。身為一個投手，我現在感覺之好，是過去所未曾有過的，我覺得比起以前，我更完整了。" General manager Brian Cashman, manager Joe Girardi and pitching coach Dave Eiland insist that they continue to have high hopes for both. Hughes has had major injuries in consecutive seasons, which the Yankees hope he can move past. Kennedy surged in late 2007 before faltering badly last year. 現金人、Girardi與投教Eiland堅持他們持續對這兩個年輕人有著極高的期望。球團希望大弟能克服過去幾年傷痛不斷的困擾；而2007年底動手術的阿甘，去年則投的搖搖欲墜 "In terms of what they can be, they haven't dropped in our opinion," Cashman said. "我們從未懷疑他們可能的成長"現今人曰 Said Eiland: "In their minds, they need to feel like they're competing for a spot. We still have very high expectations for those two. We still look at them as we always have, that they're going to play a major role in this organization - if not today, not too far off." "他們需要有必須去爭取一個位置的覺悟，我們仍然對他們有很高的期待，仍然認為他們將會成為球隊的主幹；就算不是現在，也會是不遠的將來。"Eiland道 Girardi noted that the Yankees aren't assuming their starters will remain healthy. That's a good idea, given the way they rolled through pitchers in rapid succession last year. But Sabathia, Burnett, Chien-Ming Wang, Andy Pettitte and Joba Chamberlain have rotation spots locked up unless they get hurt. Girardi注意到球團並沒有假設先發投手群都能維持健康一整季。這麼想也沒錯，尤其看看去年就知道。不過C.C. 、A.J.B.，小王、Pettitte與小張已經"佔滿"了輪值位置，除非其中有人受傷。 The goal, Girardi said, is for Hughes and Kennedy to improve no matter where they are. "I think it was important that they learn from last year," he said, "that they took something from it, that they understand what it takes to stay here for a long time ... The biggest thing is that they get better. Wherever they do it, that's the most important thing for them and the organization." Girardi說，大弟跟阿甘的目標，就是不斷地進步，不管是在哪。"他們能從去年的經驗裡學到什麼是很重要的，了解要怎樣能在大聯盟長久生存....對球團與他兩人而言，最重要的就是他們變得更好。" Hughes pitched in the Arizona Fall League to up his innings total after suffering a stress fracture in a rib early in the 2008 season. He then worked out at Athletes Performance near Los Angeles. Hughes added 10 pounds to get to 240, saying he pitched last year at his lowest weight since the middle of high school. He wanted to get stronger to help ward off injuries and said: "This offseason, I was preparing to put myself in the best possible situation to maximize my ability and to stay healthy." 大弟在亞利桑那秋季聯盟增加了他的投球局數，然後在洛杉磯附近的Athletes Performance做訓練。體重增加了10磅來到240磅，他說自己去年在最輕體重的狀態下投球，他想更強壯以避免受傷 On May 1, 2007, while pitching a no-hitter against the Rangers in only his second major-league start, Hughes strained his left hamstring with one out in the seventh inning. While rehabbing that injury, he suffered an ankle sprain and did not pitch for the Yankees again until Aug. 4. Last year, because of the rib, he did not pitch for the Yankees from April 29 to Sept. 17. But Cashman pointed to the Mets' Jose Reyes as someone who battled perennial injuries early in his career before getting past them and becoming a star. '07與'08年，大弟接因傷所擾而有好長一段時間沒有比賽，但是現金人說，大都會的Jose Reyes職業生涯早年也是不斷地跟自己的傷奮戰，最後Reyes 還不是克服了這些，成了大明星。 Kennedy, who made only one start for the Yankees after May 27 last season, spent part of his offseason pitching for the Indios de Mayaguez in the Puerto Rican winter league. He went 2-2 with a 1.56 ERA in 34 2/3 innings. Kennedy, who is far from overpowering and needs to locate his pitches to be effective, worked on his curveball and on his delivery. 去年五月二十七日之後就再也沒出賽過的阿甘，則是波多黎各冬季連盟度過這個季後時光。投了34又2/3局，2勝2負，防禦率1.56。阿甘著重於曲球跟球進壘點的加強 "He went down there with things we wanted him to do," Eiland said. "He did them and he did them well. We want him to continue to do that and carry those things into the season." Eiland說:"他都有乖乖做我們希望他做的事，而且做得很好，我們希望他持續下去，延續到今年整個球季。" Once back in California, Kennedy got personal coaching from pitching guru Tom House, now at the University of Southern California. Kennedy has known House since high school and thought he could help return him to things he used to do well but had gotten away from. 回到加州後，阿甘得到了Tom House的私人指導，希望這位他從中學就認識的老師，能幫他找回過去他很擅長，但是已經遺忘的事 Cashman said his hopes for both are "for good health and good performance." 現金人對兩個年輕人的期待: 健康並且有好的表現 Whether it be in the Bronx or in Scranton. 不論是在大聯盟還是在3 A -- 宇宙裡的微小塵埃 http://www.wretch.cc/blog/AllyDai -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 203.71.94.5
