Jason Marquis will stay on schedule
快速翻譯
Nationals starting pitcher Jason Marquis will remain on schedule and start
next Friday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, a sign that the team believes
Marquis's dreadful beginning to the season is an anomaly to be fixed and not
an indication of a long-term problem or physical issue.
Jason Marquis 仍會持續待在先發輪值中,並且將在禮拜五出戰洛杉磯道奇隊。
球團相信 Marquis 目前糟糕透頂的表現只是反常的現象,而且很快就會修正回來,
這不是什麼短期內無法解決的問題,也不是身體出了什麼毛病。
"He hasn't performed well," General Manager Mike Rizzo said. "But I go back
to, like I often do, track record and career and that type of thing. I still
believe that Marquis is going to be Marquis at the end of the day. I think
concern is probably too strong a word at this point."
「他目前表現的不是很好。」 GM Mike Rizzo 說道。
「但是我回過頭追蹤了一些紀錄和職業生涯表現以及和 Marquis 目前的情況類似
的事件,就像我經常做的那樣,我依舊相信 Marquis 總有一天會恢復。我認為
用『擔心』這樣的字眼來形容有點太超過了。」
On Sunday, Marquis's rough start bottomed out when all seven batters he faced
reached base and scored, leaving his season ERA at 20.52.
星期天出戰酒鬼,Marquis 讓他所面對的7名打者全部上壘,而且全部回來得分。
防禦率是突破天際的 20.52。
"It's definitely eating me up inside," Marquis said. "It hurts. It's
embarrassing. I'm not going to sit here and make excuses. I'm not good right
now. I have no feel for anything. I can't make any pitches. I'm not making
any pitches."
「這確實使我的心情備感焦慮。」 Marquis 表示。
「這對我來說是一種嚴重的傷害,這實在是令我感到難堪。我不會只是呆呆坐著
然後找藉口敷衍過去,我現在的心情非常差,我對任何事物都沒有感覺了。我
沒辦法投球。我現在無法投出任何一球。」
In order to regain his typical form - the form that helped him win 15 games
last season and land a two-year, $15 million deal this offseason from the
Nationals - Marquis threw a bullpen session today. Under normal circumstances,
pitchers rest the day after starts and do not throw.
為了能夠找回自己去年在落磯贏得15勝佳績的身手,Marquis 在今天進入到牛棚
練習。一般而言,投手通常會在先發之後的隔天好好休息而不是投球。
After his start Sunday, Marquis stayed at Nationals Park and watched video of
himself pitching last year with the Colorado Rockies and compared it to film
from this season. He watched more tape in his apartment when he got home last
night, and he watched more again this morning.
星期天過後, Marquis 留在 Nationals Park 並且觀看去年他在落磯的投球影片,
同時拿來和今年球季的投球影片互相比較。當他昨晚回到公寓後看了不少的錄影帶,
而且今天早上他甚至看得更多。
"It was like night and day," Marquis said. He discovered that his delivery,
when working at its best, was "rhythmic instead of robotic," he said. Marquis
realized he was thinking too much about all the moving pieces of his
delivery, like the position of his knees and hands. He also realized he was
rotating his upper body too much before his release, which allowed hitters to
see the ball too clearly.
「有點像是夜以繼日地不斷的看。」Marquis 說。而他已經發現到問題出在哪裡。
在他狀況最好的時候,是「有節奏的,而不是機械式的」。 Marquis 瞭解到自己
太過在意身體部位的移動,像是膝蓋以及手的位置。也瞭解到在他把球投出去之前
他的上半身旋轉過多,這會讓打者清楚得看見他所投出來的球。
"I've just tried to simplify it," Marquis said. "I can't be trying seven or
eight different things. I tried to watch as much positive stuff and negative
stuff just to see the differences in what's wrong, try to prepare, try to
recreate that feeling of when things were going good.
「我試著簡化我目前所遇到的問題。」 Marquis 表示。
「我沒辦法在同時嘗試太多不同的事情。我試著去看了許多好的以及差勁的 stuff,
想瞭解到底哪裡出了問題導致這之間的差別。我試著做好準備,想要把以前那種
好的感覺重新找回來。 」
"I came up with something that we think is the right move, and I'm going to
stick with it instead of maybe giving it one time and don't feel good, then
try something different. I'm going to stick with this one thing and just
really try to be athletic, be Jason Marquis, and stop trying to be so
robotic."
「我提出了某些建議,而我們認為這應該是正確的行動,同時我將會堅持下去,
而不會只是試過一次但因為結果不是很好,所以就直接放棄再去找其他不同的
方法來嘗試。我會堅持專心做一件事情並且真正設法去身體力行,再度恢復成
過去的我,並且不再讓自己的投球動作變得像個機械人似的。」
His current feeling, Marquis said, reminds him of his season in 2006 with the
St. Louis Cardinals, when Marquis went 14-16 with a 6.02 ERA.
Marquis 說他現在的感覺使他想起2006年的時候他待在聖路易紅雀隊的情形。
當時他的成績是14勝16敗,防禦率6.02。
"I've been down this road before," Marquis said. "Maybe the results haven't
been as negative as it has, but the feeling's the same. And I know I bounced
out of it and I think that I'll be all right."
「我過去也曾經一度狀況不佳。」Marquis 說。
「或許當時的結果並沒有像現在所表現得這麼糟,但兩者的感覺是相同的。而且
我知道自己能夠擺脫這個困境,同時我認為我的狀況會好起來的。」
Marquis stumbled at the end of last season, his ERA jumping from 3.65 in the
first half of the season to 4.56 in the second half. Marquis made the
All-Star Game with his first half, which came after a slow spring.
Marquis 在去年球季結束的尾聲投得跌跌撞撞,防禦率從原本上半季的3.65在下半季
暴增到4.56。Marquis 因為上半季精采的表現而入選進了明星賽,而且原本在春訓時
他的狀況有些慢熱,但之後就越投越好。
"He was terrific for us," Rockies Manager Jim Tracy said. "What's interesting
is he had a very questionable spring. When you're talking about a finesse
guys versus a power guy, a power pitcher settles in quicker than a finesse
pitcher. What we saw was a guy who was still sorting some things out at the
end of the spring. Right towards the end of the spring, he was pretty good.
He just rolled from there and locked himself and just took off. We don't have
the chance to play in the division series if we don't have the type of first
half like we had gotten from him."
「對我們來說他是個了不起的球員。」洛磯隊的總教練 Jim Tracy 表示。
「有趣的是一開始他的表現非常值得商榷。當你在討論關於技巧型的投手和強力型
的投手時,強力型投手比起技巧型的投手能夠更快速地解決打者。而我們看到他
在春訓結束時依舊在整理某些事情。他在春訓所做的事情是正確的,之後他的表
現非常優異。他在這樣的情況下展開球季,鎖定自己並且開始起飛。如果我們沒
有他上半季精采的表現,我們就不可能有機會打分區系列賽了。」
