这是几天前的文章了.... Hong-Chih Kuo came into this season as a huge question mark for so many different reasons. He’s rarely managed to stay healthy, struggled with control, and seems unable to settle into a defined role. Even with these questions, Kuo has managed to be a great pitcher this year, striking out over a batter per inning while walking people far less frequently than he had in prior years. Despite this, Joe Torre has refused to use Kuo at all, for what seems like increasingly bizarre reasons. 由於许多因素，今年球季前郭泓志一直被是个未知数。他很少保持健康，控球不佳，没有 明确的定位。但是今年郭泓志的表现非常优异，一局三振超过一名打者，保送率较前几年 大幅降低。尽管如此，由於奇怪的因素，Joe Torre 仍然不太喜欢派他上场。 While Chan Ho Park has done well enough this year that the majority of Dodger fans want to see him as our fifth starter, but he’s been fairly mediocre so far with a 2.09 ERA versus a 4.34 FIP . Granted, this is better than I expected. However, Kuo has put up both a lower ERA this season, and he’s managed to do it without getting some kind of mystical fairy charm put on him. Kuo’s 1.93 ERA and a 2.49 FIP are far more impressive numbers. Despite being better according to both simple and advanced stats, Joe Torre refuses to use Kuo at all. Since splitting a start with Chan Ho on May 17th, Kuo has made just three appearances , once when down 4-0 against the Cardinals, down 6-3 against the Mets, and down 6-1 against the Mets again. In that same timespan, Scott Proctor, by far the least effective Dodger reliever this year, has appeared nine times, three times in medium to high leverage situations. Chan Ho Park has appeared six times, four of them in high leverage situations. 今年朴赞浩表现的够水准，大部分的道奇球迷希望由他担任第五号先发，但是到目前为止 2.09防御率与4.34 FIP只能算是普通的表现，但是这已经比我预期的好了。然而今年球季 郭泓志的防御率更低，但是并未获得教练的青睐。郭泓志的1.93防御率与2.49 FIP的成绩 数字非常令人印象深刻。尽管依据简单或进一步的数据，郭泓志都是较佳的选择，但是 Joe Torre 几乎不愿意使用他。从5月17日朴赞浩先发的比赛开始，郭泓志只出赛了三场 ，分别是4-0落後红雀队时，6-3落後大都会队，再一次6-1落後大都会队。在这段时间里 ，今年道奇後援投手表表现最差的 Scott Proctor 却上场了9次，其中三次是在中度到高 度关键时刻。朴赞浩则出赛了6场，其中四场是高度关键时刻。 Even though Kuo is third on the team in ERA and leads Chan Ho and Proctor in every pitching category from ERA to walk rate to WHIP, Kuo is the one relegated to mop up duty while the latter is being used while the outcome of the game is still in still in doubt. The entire year, Kuo has only faced 20 batters in high leverage situations, versus 52 in medium leverage and 80 in low leverage. Kuo is our third best reliever according to FIP but he’s rarely, if ever used when the game actually matters. 虽然郭泓志的防御率在球队中排名第三，并且从防御率，保送率到平均每局被上垒率等各 项投球成绩都领先朴 赞浩与 Proctor，但是郭泓志却被定位为败战处理，虽然最近常在 比赛结果仍未定的时候上场。郭弘志整年只在高度关键时刻面对了20名打者，中度关键时 刻面对了52名，低度关键时刻则面对了50名打者。根据 FIP 的统计资料，郭泓志是我们 队上排名第三的後援投手，但是当关键时刻上场时，他总是表现的很出色。 What’s even more bizarre is that Joe Torre’s low opinion of Kuo seems based on one start, where he allowed five runs in 3.2 innings. After that start, Kuo was removed from the rotation, and has only pitched eight times since, twice in high leverage situations. This is completely insane behavior because outside of that outing, Kuo has pitched 33.2 innings, and allowed three runs. We have a lefty who can strikeout over a batter an inning, and he’s been relegated to Scott Erickson status seemingly entirely because of one bad start. 更怪异的是，Joe Torre 似乎从郭泓志3.2局失五分的那次先发後就开始就降低了对郭泓 志的评价。那场先发後，郭泓志被调离先发轮值，并且在那之後只出赛过8场，其中两场 是在高度关键时刻。这真是极为愚蠢的调度，因为在那之後，郭泓志投了32.2局只失了3 分。我们拥有一局能三振一位打者的左投手，但是他却被归类成 Scott Erickson 那项的 选手，似乎完全只因为一场糟糕的先发。 Granted, this isn’t all that bad because the bullpen outside of Proctor and some minor guest appearances has been unhittable this year. Eventually though, our middling pitchers like Chan Ho, Joe Beimel, and Cory Wade will collapse, and when that happens we need to be able to turn to Kuo as a rock in the bullpen or a new starter. Kuo is one of the more valuable members of this team with a limited shelf life, we need to use him while we can. 假使不是因为那场不佳的先发，而是因为今年牛棚除了 Proctor 与一些偶而客串的小联 盟选手以外其他的球员都具有压制力。如果最後我们的中继投手，如朴赞浩, Joe Beimel, Cory Wade 崩盘了，我们必须以郭泓志做为牛棚的主力或是新的先发投手。虽然 郭泓志的上场时间受到限制，但是他是球队中较为重要的球员之一，我们必须尽可能的让 他上场。 http://www.truebluela.com/2008/6/11/550157/woe-is-kuo -- Gary says... http://www.gary711.net http://gary711.idv.st --
