The New Tork Times Mussina Is Finally Dealing With Being Removed From the Rotation Moose终於面对他被从先发轮值移除 By TYLER KEPNER Published: August 31, 2007 Mike Mussina met with reporters yesterday and apologized for taking three days to discuss his removal from the Yankees’ rotation. In a way, though, his silence said enough. Moose昨天跟记者见面, 针对三天来躲避媒体道歉. 不过他的沉默已诉说了一切. “I was mad,” Mussina said. “I can admit that. I’m still not excited. But it bothered me quite a bit.” "我很生气," Moose说. "我承认这件事. 我还是没有很激动, 但这的确很严重困扰着我." Ian Kennedy will start in Mussina’s place tomorrow against Tampa Bay, and he threw off the mound after yesterday’s game under the supervision of Dave Eiland, the pitching coach at Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Mussina said that the time off would not make him throw harder, but it could help clear his mind for when he pitches again. Kennedy明天会取代Moose先发, 他昨天赛後在3A投手教练的监督下在投手丘练投. Moose说: 让他休息并不能让他投球更用力, 但能让他整理他的思绪. “You start feeling like there’s nothing I can do to change this, and you get a bad attitude, and that’s where I was,” said Mussina, who is 0-3 with a 17.69 earned run average in his last three starts. “Everything I threw, I thought something bad was going to happen.” "你开始感觉你无力改变这一切, 你态度变得不好, 这就是我当时的状况." Moose说. "每当我投出一颗球, 我就觉得不好的事情会发生." Time away from pitching, Mussina said, may also help his legs feel stronger. Mussina, 38, said his arm was sturdy, but his hamstring has never fully healed since he injured it in April. Moose说:不投球会让他的脚感觉更强壮. 他的手臂很健康, 但他的大腿从四月受伤以来没有完全复原过. The puzzling part, he added, is that the physical concerns are no worse now than they were from June 7 through Aug. 11, when he went 6-4 with a 3.54 E.R.A. But without confidence in his pitches, it has been hard to pick the right ones to throw. 令人困惑的是:他的身体状况并不会比6/7-8/11时不好(6胜4败, 3.54 ERA). 但由於缺乏自信, 他很难决定他应该要投的球路. The self-analysis has become so painful for Mussina that he has stopped doing his regular interviews with the author John Feinstein, who is writing a book about Mussina’s season. Mussina would prefer to focus on whatever positives remain. 由於这个自我分析的过程太痛苦, 他也暂停与他的棒球书作者的例行会面. 他现在要专心於所有正面的事. “Hopefully, it’ll make me a better player and make me learn how to deal with things better, because it’s coming to that time where, eventually, I’m not going to be doing this anymore,” he said. “And I know that. It’s not too far in the future. They didn’t release me or send me down, so I’m still here. That’s a positive.” "希望这能让我成为一个更好的球员, 让我学习处理好事情. 因为现在已经到了我能不能 再继续打球的关头." Moose说. "我知道我的日子不多了. 他们并没有把我释出或送到小联盟, 我还在这里. 这是好的一面." CLEMENS EXPECTS TO START Roger Clemens said he still expected to start Monday against Seattle, despite inflammation in his right elbow that surfaced yesterday after he pitched six innings Wednesday to beat Boston. Clemens希望能先发 Clemens希望星期一还是能对水手先发, 尽管他昨天感觉到右手肘发炎. Clemens made a vague reference to physical issues after that game, and he received treatment yesterday. Asked about the elbow, he said: “I’ve got some issues, but I’m going to be fine. Same old.” Clemens在星期三赛後模糊地提到身体的不适, 也在昨天接受了治疗. 被问到手肘的事, 他说:"我有一些状况, 但我将会没事." Asked if Clemens would make the start, General Manager Brian Cashman said, “ He’s lined up as of right now.” 被问到Clemens是否会先发, Cashman说"他还是像现在表订一样先发." Clemens, 45, has battled leg and groin muscle problems in recent years, but his arm has stayed remarkably durable over his 24-year career. Clemens(45岁)一直在与他的大腿和鼠蹊部伤痛奋战, 但他的手臂在24年中一直都很耐用. DRESSED FOR THE OCCASION Red Sox Manager Terry Francona was incensed after a Major League Baseball security agent visited the team’s dugout in the second inning of Wednesday’s game with the Yankees to find out if he was wearing his jersey. 穿太休闲了 第二局大联盟安全人员跟洋基人员一起到休息区看Francona是否有穿制服之後, Francona发火了。 Francona, who normally wears a Red Sox pullover shirt, received a letter about his failure to comply with uniform regulations. He met with Bob Watson, baseball’s vice president for on-field operations, before the game and showed Watson that he was wearing the jersey. Francona通常穿着红袜的套头球衣, 有人写信检举他没按规定穿制服. 他赛前还特地跟大联盟球场运作部门副总Bob Watson会面, 让他看一下他有穿球衣. Still, Francona said the agent entered the Red Sox’ dugout in the bottom of the second inning to confirm that he was wearing the jersey. Ed Maldonado, a New York police officer who also works for Major League Baseball, conducted the uniform check. 不过, Francona说:安全人员第二局结束又到休息区检查他的衣服. 一位纽约警官负责检查. “I’ve never seen anything like that in my life,” Francona said. “In the middle of the game, you’ve got the fashion police.” "我这辈子从没见过这种事." Francona说. "在比赛到一半, 有一个fashion police跑来." He added: “I wasn’t surprised they were going to check me. I was a little surprised about the timing.” 他补充说:"我并不意外他们会检查我. 但我很讶异他们检查的时机." Watson did not return a telephone call, but he told The Associated Press, “I ’m not talking about that, and I’m disappointed that they talked about it.” He has sent letters to about 10 managers regarding the uniform policy. Joe Torre, the Yankees’ manager, called the focus on uniforms “a farce.” 副总Watson告诉美联社:"我不会讨论这件事, 我对他们谈到这件事感到失望." 他寄信给将近十位总教练关於制服政策. Torre说:这是一场闹剧.
