还没开季 红袜就伤兵不断= =
The Boston Red Sox continue to say that right-hander Josh Beckett will be
fine. But the pitcher on Tuesday will join teammate Andrew Bailey in
Cleveland to see Dr. Robert Graham, a hand specialist at the Cleveland
Clinic, according to major-league sources
红袜队持续说他们的王牌Beckett没事,但是星期二他将去克里夫兰看Dr. Robert Graham
(A.Bailey也是看同一位医师)
The team wants Beckett to visit Graham for “peace of mind” and still
expects him to pitch the second game of the season, sources say. But the
visit will mark the second time in two days that Beckett has seen a hand
specialist for a thumb problem – he was in San Antonio on Monday to see Dr.
Mark Bagg.
红袜希望Beckett能够在开幕第二战就上场
(官网:Bobby Valentine said he "totally" expected Beckett will be able to make)
但这是Beckett两天内第二次去看医师了(星期一在圣地牙哥看医生)
Bailey, too, is suffering from a thumb problem, and team doctors in Boston
determined on Monday that he will require surgery, according to the Boston
Globe. Graham will offer a second opinion on Bailey Tuesday. After that, the
team will make a final determination.
星期一队医跟Bailey说他应该需要进行手术,Dr.Graham会给他另一个方案
然后红袜队就要做出选择了
The loss of Bailey for a significant length of time would be damaging to the
Red Sox, who lost free-agent closer Jonathan Papelbon to the Philadelphia
Phillies during the off-season. The loss of Beckett on top of Bailey would
compromise the team even further.
失去Bailey对于红袜是一击重拳,但若Beckett也中箭的话 更是会雪上加霜
Beckett, who turns 32 on May 15, threw a 100-pitch bullpen Sunday, manager
Bobby Valentine told reporters. The pitcher did not miss a miss a start this
spring, allowing just two earned runs in 19 innings. But Valentine said
Beckett had a “little history” with his thumb.
Beckett在今年5月15就要32岁,星期天还在牛棚练习了100球,没什么事
他今年春训没有跳过任何一次先发 19局内只被打了2分
但老情人说Beckett的拇指伤势是有历史的
The Red Sox are confident in Beckett, left-hander Jon Lester and right-hander
Clay Buchholz as their top three starters. They staged a competition for the
fourth and fifth spots all spring, ultimately awarding them to lefty Felix
Doubront and righty Daniel Bard.
红袜五号先发:Beckett,Lester,Buchholz,Doubront,Bard
The absence of Bailey, however, could force the Sox to rethink their bullpen,
and perhaps even move Bard, their former setup man, back into a late-inning
role. The team’s immediate plan could be to use right-handers Alfredo Aceves
and Mark Melancon in the eighth and ninth innings.
Bailey的受伤或许会让红袜重新检视牛棚战力,或许会把丹爸移回牛棚
目前应该是Aceves跟Melancon 镇守8.9两局
But Aceves, one of the pitchers who competed for a starting job, said Monday
that Valentine had told him to be ready to start the second game of the
season if Beckett was not ready. Prior to that, it had not been known that
Beckett had a thumb problem.
Aceves在星期天已经被告知到牛棚,若Beckett在第二战无法上场,他将会替补上场
