Nationals move Cabrera to bullpen
WASHINGTON -- The Nationals have decided to take right-hander Daniel Cabrera
out of the starting rotation and make him a long man in the bullpen.
Cabrera's inability to throw strikes is the reason for the move.
Washington wants Cabrera to work on his delivery with pitching coach Randy
St. Claire. When he has a quick delivery, Cabrera is able to throw strikes.
When he slows it down, he has a propensity to walk too many batters.
Cabrera also has a tendency to put his right cleat on the rubber when he
pitches, but most pitchers have their foot in front of the rubber.
With Cabrera out of the rotation, right-hander Craig Stammen will start
against the Pirates and make his Major League debut on Thursday. Stammen, one
of the team's top pitching prospects, was 4-2 with a 1.80 ERA with Triple-A
Syracuse. One reason Stammen, 25, has been impressive is the effectiveness of
a two-seam fastball he developed during Spring Training.
球隊終於受不了 Cabrera 投球表現，決定讓他去牛棚蹲一陣子，跟著投手教練
調整投球姿勢，預計會從3A拉滾球王子 Craig Stammen 上來頂替。Nationals
輪值大概是全大聯盟最年輕的組合，Lannan、Zimmermann、Martis、Detwiler
、Stammen，由二年級生與一年級生組合而成。
