A year later he was suffering through his worst statistical season -- one featuring a stint on the DL with an anxiety disorder, and culminating with October elbow surgery, the fifth of his career. 这位前洛杉矶道奇的投手，在今年开季前和西雅图水手签约，他是2010年最具有宰制力的 後援左投之一，可是2010年之後这位左投就因为伤病的因素度过了惨澹的一季，去年10月 他接受了手肘的手术，这已经是生涯的第5次。 In his mind, there's only one thing to focus on in order to avoid another year like 2011, where each time he stepped to the mound, it seemed as though his control worsened. 在郭泓志的心中，只有专注於如何避免2011年的事情再度发生，每次当他踏上投 手丘时，他的情况都更加恶化。 "I just need to get that confidence," Kuo said following Saturday's workout at Peoria Sports Complex. "Be on the mound, and don't be afraid about anything. Try to stay healthy and get stronger. I'll do whatever I have to do." 『我只是需要找到自信。』郭泓志在礼拜六时说到，『站上投手丘，并且不要再去害怕任 何事情，试着保持健康和强壮！我会做任何我应该要做的事情！』 Kuo's psychological struggles kept him away from the strike zone and eventually landed him on the disabled list last May. When he returned he never seemed himself, eventually finishing the 2011 season with a 9.00 ERA and 23 walks in 27 innings. 郭泓志的心理层面的挣扎使他无法投出好球，而且去年五月时终於将他击倒使他无法再投 球。去年球季结束时他的成绩是ERA 9.00而且短短27局中送出高达23次保送。 Kuo clarified that his confidence will come, so long as his elbow doesn't falter. 可是郭泓志澄清，如果手肘没受伤，他迟早会重拾自信心。！ "If I stay healthy, I'll be able to do whatever I want to do," said Kuo, adding he has felt great in camp thus far after arthroscopic surgery Oct. 28. "I'll be able to get my confidence back and really be able to show people what I can do." 『只要我保持健康，我可以做好任何我想做的事情！』再经过10月28日的关节镜手术之後 ，郭泓志在春训时表示他感觉很好。『我会重拾信心的！然後我会把这些展现给所有人 看，我会让他们知道我可以！』 What he can do is post a 1.20 ERA in 60 innings with a WHIP below 0.8. What he can do is strike out 11 batters per nine innings, while holding opposing hitters to a .139 batting average. 他要做到的是当初2010年的好成绩，ERA1.20投了60局，WHIP在0.8以下，然後K9值缴出11 的傲人成绩，他会让打者面对他时只有0.139的低打击率。 If Kuo can put up anything close to those 2010 numbers, Mariners pitching coach Carl Willis says he'll make a huge impact in the Seattle bullpen. Willis sees Kuo not just as a lefty specialist, but potentially someone who could anchor the seventh or eighth inning for manager Eric Wedge. 水手队投手教练Carl Willis说只要郭泓志能够重回或接近2010年的成绩，那麽对於水手 队的牛棚来说是一项大利多。Willis认为郭泓志不会只是个专门拿来对付左打者的投手， 他可以是总教练Eric Wedge在第七局和第八局的重要後援投手。 But to Willis, the key is to let Kuo progress at his own rate, without rushing him into a situation he isn't yet ready for. By doing so, Kuo's confidence should rise and he'll be able to showcase his talent without the anxiety troubles. 可是Carl Willis的关键点是如何快速让郭泓志能够稳地进步，不要揠苗助长，他还没真 正完全地准备好。但只要一切控制得当，郭泓志能够展现他以往的自信心并且让他的才华 挥洒在球场上，而且不会笼罩再受伤痛阴影之下。 "I've seen a guy that throws strikes in Spring Training in the bullpen," Willis said. "I think that's huge because he needs to take that confidence he has in those bullpens out into games and pound the strike zone, because his stuff is not a question." 『我看到他在春训的牛棚练投中投出好球，我想那对他来说很重要的是能够找回原先的自 信心，我不认为他在其他方面有什麽问题。』Willis这样表示。 Kuo says he has been greeted with open arms in the Mariners clubhouse -- a welcome change of scenery for the 30-year-old, though it was no doubt tough for him to leave the organization he signed with in 1999 as an amateur free agent. 郭泓志来到了西雅图水手队，自从他1999年被签下直到今日，郭泓志年纪来到30岁，心境 上已经有所改变，虽然未来的路依然需要步步为营。 He made his first appearance for Seattle in a game-like situation during Friday's intrasquad scrimmage, where he walked two batters and retired the other three he faced in his lone inning. Kuo is not slated to throw in Sunday's intrasquad game, but he will throw a side session. 他给了西雅图的关於他的第一印象，在礼拜五的分组对抗赛中，一局中他保送了2名打者 但是仍让其他三个打者出局。星期天的分组对抗预定他不会上场但是仍在一旁热身。 "It's been a while since I got surgery, so it's good to get out there and face hitters," Kuo said. "I walked a couple guys, but I've been working hard." 郭泓志说：『自从我手术之後一段时间了，能解决三个出局数我觉得很棒，虽然保送2个 人可是我还是努力调整回来。』 Willis had no problems with what he saw from Kuo on Friday, adding the coaches' expectations for Kuo can't be too high this early because of the recent surgery and recovery following his shaky 2011 campaign. Willis说礼拜五看过郭泓志投球後我觉得他应该没有问题，在教练的预期中，郭泓志不可 能这麽快就立刻调整到最好的状态，毕竟刚动过手术，又曾经历一个风雨飘零球季。 "Because he had a down year, we need to make sure we temper the expectations early, and allow him to go out and compete," Willis said. "Then he'll show us what he can be." 『因为他度过一个低潮的一年，他需要确保一切在我们的预想当中然後我们会调整到最好 状态，接着，他会告诉大家，他可以做到！』Willis这样表示。 Wedge described Kuo as "a veteran guy, who knows what his role is," and said, he, too, has been impressed in camp. But as for Kuo's long-term role with the club, Wedge won't know until Kuo lets him know. 总教练Wedge描述郭泓志是一个经验老到的球员，他知道自己的角色还有他该做什麽，他 在春训时有深刻的印象，郭泓志让Wedge知道他该把郭泓志放在哪个位置。 "He'll define it," Wedge said. Wedge说：『他会证明一切的。』 In doing so, Kuo may also be defining the Mariners' bullpen in 2012. 看来郭泓志在2012年的水手队牛棚里会有足够的表现让大家知道他想证明的事情。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 外电翻译，最後几段不知道有没有翻错的地方 有翻译错误请指正，谢谢! 要转贴文章请推文告知并且保留原翻译的ID便可自由转贴 --
