Johnson could tell Strasburg looked happy. Between pitches, as Strasburg switched from the stretch to his wind-up, Johnson sidled next to him. “It’s nice to be one of the boys, isn’t it?” Johnson said. Since he first set foot in Nationals spring training in 2010, Strasburg had longed for the brand of normalcy he’ll have now, neither fighting the attention that comes with being the most hyped pitching prospect of all time nor rehabbing from Tommy John surgery. He’s just getting ready for the season with the rest of his teammates. “Yeah,” Strasburg said. “It is.” >>>Johnson did not get a chance to watch Gio Gonzalez, the left-hander acquired from the Oakland A’s for four prospects this December, throw his first side session with the Nationals. While the rest of the groups threw in the bullpen by the backfields, Gonzalez and Sean Burnett threw in a batting cage equipped with everything hooked up to a strobe light to capture images for the Nationals’ video board this year. “It was awesome,” Gonzalez said. Pitching coordinator Spin Williams kept an eye on Gonzalez, who said his arm felt “awesome,” too. Gonzalez has a gaggle of new teammates to meet, but his gregarious, outgoing personality should make it easy for him to fit in. Gonzalez knows two Nationals players from long, long ago. He and first baseman Chris Marrero first met when they played T-ball, and they played together at Monsignor Pace High School in Miami Gardens, Fla. “He’s still the same guy,” Marrero said. “He’s still funny.” At Pace, Gonzalez pitched against shortstop Ian Desmond’s team when both squads were ranked among the best teams in Florida. “He dealt,” Desmond said. “But I got a couple hits.” Across the room, Gonzalez nodded grudgingly. “Just watching the scenery, see what’s going on, is the best thing I can do for myself right now,” Gonzalez said. “Like I said, I just want to come here. I don’t want to step on anyone’s toes. Just enjoy, and see where it goes from there. From what I see there are some great players here, and I’m just trying to be part of it.” He tried on his batting helmet today, trying to get his first taste of hitting on a regular basis. In nine career plate appearances, all in interleague play, Gonzalez has no hits and four strikeouts. Once, against the San Francisco Giants, Gonzalez whiffed so violently he stumbled to the ground. Now, he says, he’ll be more prepared. “I studied some of the videos from that movie ‘Benchwarmers,’” Gonzalez said. “Hopefully in due time I can get it past the pitcher’s mound without falling on my backside.” >>> Last year at this time, Drew Storen resolved to ditch his distinctive slide step, when he keeps his front leg straight and leans slowly toward the plate. After he struggled and Jayson Werth recommended he bring it back, Storen began using the slide step again for good. Storen utilized the move with a twist today in his first throwing session. He rotated his hips a few extra degrees, a more pronounced version of the straight-leg slide step. “Last year I wasn’t doing it at all, so now I’m really kind of exaggerating it this year,” Storen said. “When you do that, it just lets your arm be free and easy.” Storen may or may not use the pronounced rotation in games. “We’ll see once I start turning it up,” he said. “Ideally, I would kind of smooth it out more, be a little bit quicker.” Experimenting comes naturally for Storen. He constantly tinkers with his motion and delivery, which pitching coach Steve McCatty has previously implored him to dial back. Last year, for example, Storen set his hands lower and lower in his delivery as the year moved on. Storen does not want to start tinkering too much, but he feels he can give himself freedom so long as he maintains a couple fundamental principles in his motion. “It’s a matter of knowing what makes you successful and just kind of maximizing that and watching yourself,” Storen said. “I think change is good, but you don’t want to reinvent the wheel at the same time. That’s why you try to simplify things, if you have a couple things that you just think about. I feel good now. It’s just a matter of staying on top of the ball and using my lower half. If I do that, I’ll be in good shape.” >>> Chien-Ming Wang experienced a few minor health issues in the past month. First, he slipped on wet grass while training and sprained a finger on his left hand. Then he felt soreness in his surgically repaired right shoulder after an early throwing motion. Athletic trainer Lee Kuntz said neither ailment is anything to worry about – the sprain is on his glove hand, anyway, and the pain in his shoulder was typical spring soreness, not a symptom pertaining to his previous shoulder issues. “He’s fine,” Kuntz said. Wang threw without issue today, but Johnson wants to make sure he progresses slowly and does not risk re-injuring the shoulder he spent two years rehabbing. “I had a conversation with him a couple days ago,” Johnson said. “I said, ‘You know how to take care of yourself. You know your body better than anybody else. Don’t try to accelerate your pace. Go at the pace you’ll be most comfortable with to get ready for the opening of the season.’ ” After Wang’s throwing session, Johnson approached Wang again. “ ‘I said, ‘How you feeling, because you’re looking great,’ ” Johnson said. “He said, ‘I feel great.’ ” 简单摘要： 1. 春训第一批投手在牛棚练习了快速球跟变速球，教头可以感觉到小史的快乐，从2010 年春训踏入这里以来，这是小史期待许久也是他第一次拥有的正常春训---不再需要对 抗那些倍受各方期待的注目，也不必再做TJ的复健，他已经准备好与其他队友一同面对 今年的球季。 2. 从魔球交易来的冈萨雷兹有一大票的队友要认识，但看来他外向的个性可以让他很快 习惯这一切。他认识队上两个人很久了，一个是在打乐乐棒球时第一次碰面，而之後 在佛州的Pace高中一起打球的的一垒手Marrero。另一个，则是游击手Desmond。 他在佛州Pace高中时曾跟Desmond的队伍交手过。 他觉的他现在能为自己做的事就是看着这个舞台然後看看会发生些什麽事。如同他常说 的，他无意得罪任何人，只是享受这个过程，然後看看可以从那个地方走到哪里。 他觉的这边有些不错的球员，也希望能够成为其中的一员。 最後他戴头盔尝试做了打击练习，希望球能穿过投手丘而自己没有跌坐在地上。 3. 史托伦几乎都在讲调整投球动作。 4. 王爸有些小状况但并没有什麽问题。一个是戴手套的左手手指扭到， 另一个则是早些时候在费雪自主训练时曾感到右肩紧绷。 防护员说这些都不需要担心，紧绷仅是典型的春训紧绷而非肩伤的相关症状。 王爸今天投球没什麽问题，教头要他照自己的进度来就好。 教头觉的他看起来很棒，问他感觉怎麽样，王爸也说觉的很棒。 有误的地方还请大家指正一下，谢谢。 --
