WASHINGTON -- The Nationals have decided to take right-hander Daniel Cabrera out of the starting rotation and make him a long man in the bullpen. Cabrera's inability to throw strikes is the reason for the move. Washington wants Cabrera to work on his delivery with pitching coach Randy St. Claire. When he has a quick delivery, Cabrera is able to throw strikes. When he slows it down, he has a propensity to walk too many batters. Cabrera also has a tendency to put his right cleat on the rubber when he pitches, but most pitchers have their foot in front of the rubber. With Cabrera out of the rotation, right-hander Craig Stammen will start against the Pirates and make his Major League debut on Thursday. Stammen, one of the team's top pitching prospects, was 4-2 with a 1.80 ERA with Triple-A Syracuse. One reason Stammen, 25, has been impressive is the effectiveness of a two-seam fastball he developed during Spring Training. 球队终於受不了 Cabrera 投球表现，决定让他去牛棚蹲一阵子，跟着投手教练 调整投球姿势，预计会从3A拉滚球王子 Craig Stammen 上来顶替。Nationals 轮值大概是全大联盟最年轻的组合，Lannan、Zimmermann、Martis、Detwiler 、Stammen，由二年级生与一年级生组合而成。 --
