曾经威风八面 ４９／４９的男人
Jose Valverde
最近......
Pitching for his native Dominican Republic in this month's World Baseball
Classic could have provided Jose Valverde a chance to cleanse the sour taste
left in his mouth from a shaky postseason. That opportunity has vanished.
为祖国多明尼加共和国投投这个月的ＷＢＣ赛事，本来可能为Jose Valverde提供
一个机会，好扫除去年季后赛糟糕表现残留的酸楚。
现在这个机会已经人间蒸发惹。
Valverde, who is a Major League free agent, will not pitch in the Classic
because of a personal issue, the Dominican team announced on Friday.
Right-hander Lorenzo Barcelo will take Valverde's roster spot.
现为大柠檬自由球员的Valverde，因为个人因素将不会在本次ＷＢＣ出赛。
多明尼加队在周五宣布由右投手Lorenzo Barcelo递补他的缺额。
Two years ago, Valverde enjoyed a flawless regular season for the Tigers, as
he converted all 49 of his save opportunities while also earning his second
consecutive All-Star Game nod. In 2012, his ERA jumped to 3.78 from 2.24, and
he pitched just four times in the postseason, allowing nine runs in 2 2/3
innings, for a 30.38 ERA.
两年前，Valverde在老虎享受了一个完美无缺的球季：４９次救援机会全部成功
守成，也连两年入选明星赛。
但在去年，他的防御率从2.24跳升到3.78，并且只在季后赛出赛四次，二又三分
之二局里喷了整整９分，防御率是30.38。
（译按：丢分比抓到的出局数还多，冏......)
In the Game 1 of the American League Championship Series, Valverde
surrendered four runs to the Yankees in the bottom of the ninth to erase a
4-0 Tigers lead. He didn't pitch again until Game 1 of the World Series in
San Francisco, when he allowed four hits in one-third of an inning in mop-up
duty.
在美联冠军系列战的首场比赛，他在九下将对洋基的４：０冷领先全部花光光。接
著的下一场出赛就要等到世界大赛的第一场，结果他只负责了三分之一局的败处，
却被打出四支安打。
Detroit opted to part ways with the 34-year-old following the season, and
Valverde has yet to latch on with a big league team.
去年季后底特律选择与３４岁的Valverde分道扬镳，而他到目前为止都还没有与任
何一支大联盟球队签约。
The three-time All-Star has tallied 44 or more saves on three occasions, and
he owns a 3.11 ERA across 10 seasons.
这位三度入选明星赛、有三季取得４４次以上救援点的投手，在十季的生涯防御
率为3.11。
The Dominican Republic plays its first Classic game on Thursday at 6:30 p.m.
ET against Venezuela.
多明尼加队的首场ＷＢＣ出赛，将是在东岸时间周四晚间六点半出战委内瑞拉。
心得：没看到这篇还没注意到他连约都还没拿到。
犹记得他夸张的百分百救援率......
