[新聞] Royals to call up reliever Seth Maness
The Royals will add veteran reliever Seth Maness to the bullpen, according to
Cardinals beat writer Derrick Goold. Maness spent the last four years with
the Cardinals, posting a 3.19 ERA in 237 1/3 innings. The 28-year old
right-hander was non-tendered last fall due to an elbow injury. The injury
typically would have required Tommy John surgery, but Maness underwent an
experimental procedure to reduce recovery time.
The surgery Maness had, called “primary repair,” doesn’t have the sexy
name. It doesn’t have the brand recognition of Tommy John. But it also doesn
’t have the lengthy recovery time of its famous forefather. It is a repair
and buttressing of the existing ligament at the bone, not Tommy John’s
reconstruction of the ligament.
Maness is a strike-thrower who doesn’t exhibit high velocity or great
strikeout rates. He has walked 1.7 hitters-per-nine-innings in his career,
and relies on getting groundouts, with a rate near 60% in his career. His
throws a high-80s fastball with a sinker and changeup. Righties have hit just
.269/.292/.393 off of him.
The Royals have not yet announced a corresponding roster move. They are
currently carrying seven relievers, and used six in an extra-inning win over
the Rays on Tuesday. Seth Maness would need to be added to the 40-man roster,
which could require another player being designated for assignment.
Maness不在40人裡面,不知道會DFA誰?
Colon、老楊、還是把Zimmer'放到60天DL?
