Javy自己的說法, 節錄自右側網址：http://0rz.tw/rUPbI Q: What is your opinion why you didn’t catch Greg Maddux after the ’94 season? A: I still don’t know the reason why I didn’t catch him after that. I don’t want to say that he didn’t like me behind the plate. I don’t know if that’s true or not. I never heard it from him. I heard mixed answers about that. Some people say that Bobby Cox just wanted to give me a day off with him. Some people said that we needed a fresh arm to throw people out at second base because he had the slowest move to home plate, so a lot of runners could steal bases on him. They wanted a fresh catcher, like Eddie (Perez) at that time. Some people said that (Maddux) didn’t need that much offense, that he only needed two or three runs to win games. People ask why I didn’t catch Maddux, and I’m like, that’s a question you might want to ask Bobby Cox, not me. I still don’t know the answer. I don’t want to think the worst. I don’t want to think that Maddux didn’t want me because he didn’t like me behind the plate. All I know, that one year I caught him, he pitched really good. So, I don’t know. He won a Cy Young when I was catching him. Q: Does it still bother you that you didn’t catch Maddux? A: It did bother me because there were some games I really wanted to play because of the pitcher we were facing. I thought I could hit him really well. And then there were some days, like a Sunday, when I could use a day off because I caught the night before. But you know what, there were a lot of days, especially my last year with the Braves – 2003 – I mean, that year, I lost so many at-bats by not catching him, and I was on fire offensively. If I had over 500 at-bats, I’ve always been curious to see how many home runs I would have hit that year. 麥狗狗自己的說法：節錄自：http://0rz.tw/WGENH Maddux told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, "It's nothing personal. I won a Cy Young with Javy. I like throwing to him." Maddux's reasoning: "If a catcher catches 120 games in a season, that's a lot. So subtract my 35 starts from 162 games. Pitchers don't like to change catchers during the season, and by Javy not catching my games, Bobby only has to find another 10 or 12 games to rest Javy. If someone wants to know why we win, a lot of it is how Bobby manages the team." 參考一下其他網頁吧： http://0rz.tw/KmD4J Why did Javy Lopez not catch games for Greg Maddux regularly? Answer Javy Lopez did not regularly catch Greg Maddux because Maddux wanted to have his own personal catcher. He is one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history and certainly earned the right to ask for that. His personal catcher wasn't Lopez because Maddux only pitched every fifth day and Lopez's bat was too valuable to use for only a fifth of the season. Answer Maddox wants his own personal catcher. This not only gets a second catcher some playing time and at- bats it also gives the regular catcher a day off every five or six days so it works well. Maddux wanted a catcher he could bully. He also liked to work fast and Lopez took too long to get the ball back to him. -- ▄▄▄▄▄ █ # 28 鷹俠 Luis Iglesias ▄▄▄▄▌ ▄▄ █─────────────────────────┼ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▌▄█1990年全壘打王、打點王；1991年打擊王；1994年金手套│ ▄▄ ▄▄▄▄▌▌▌▄▌1996年全壘打王、打點王、最佳九人獎 │ ▌ ▄▄▄▄ ▄▌▌▌▌ │ ▌ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄因為有了鷹俠，虎迷永遠可以期待九局下半的再見全壘打│ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 111.249.47.189
