Confident Johansen dedicated to joining Nats http://0rz.tw/1pBuY Talented prospect looking to improve skills with eyes on rotation or cl role By Bill Ladson / MLB.com | 3/14/2014 7:59 P.M. ET LAKELAND, Fla. -- Despite what his numbers said while he was in college, Nationals right-hander Jake Johansen is confident in his abilities. 尽管大学时期数据不佳， 国民右投Jake Johansen对自己的能力依然有信心。 As long as he does the little things right, Johansen believes he will be in the Nationals' rotation some day. Furthermore, Johansen has not ruled out becoming a closer in the future. Johansen相信自己有天将是国民轮值的一员， 只要他把小细节一样样做好， 此外他也不排斥未来当个CL。 "I see myself as a starter. I'd like to stay a starter as long as possible," Johansen said. "It's whatever I can do to help the ballclub win. So if that's the starting rotation role, then I'll be more ecstatic to do that. If it's a closing role, I'm more than willing to do that as well." ＂我认为自己是先发，也想尽可能当先发。 但无论任何角色只要能帮球队赢球我都愿意做。 所以如果是先发投手我会高兴到疯掉， 如果是终结者当然也非常乐意。＂ Johansen, 23, is the first to tell you that he needs to improve his skills before he even thinks about going to the big leagues. Before the team's accelerated camp for prospects came to an end recently, there was Johansen improving his delivery and secondary pitches -- curveball, slider and a changeup. He wants to develop a sidearm delivery and throw across his body a little bit. 23岁的Johansen比起上大联盟更先思考如何精进自己的球技。 练新秀用的accelerated camp已经结束， 在此之前Johansen改进他的出手与第二武器－－－ 曲球，滑球与变速。 他想培养体侧出手并多利用身体的延展性去投球。 "Getting there a few weeks earlier made a huge difference," Johansen said about the accelerated camp. "It gets your mindset ready and helps you physically prepare for the grind of the season. I made a few adjustments in my delivery. ... I feel really comfortable going into the season." ＂早几个礼拜报到就有很巨大的改变。＂ 提到accelerated camp时Johansen这样讲。 ＂能让你做好心理与身体的准备去应付整个球季。 我针对出手做了些调整， ．．．对於即将到来的球季我真的觉得很舒服。＂ Johansen was the 68th overall pick -- and the Nationals' first pick -- in the 2013 First-Year Player Draft. Johansen has a fastball that is clocked as high as 100 mph. However, his secondary pitches are a work in progress. 68顺位的Johansen是国民2013年选秀会第一指名， 速球可飙到三位数，然而第二球种还在努力中。 Before he was selected, Johansen went to Nationals Park and worked out for the team. After throwing 30 pitches, the Nationals decided to draft him even though he had a 5.40 ERA for Dallas Baptist University last season. 被选上前Johansen就曾到Nationals Park测试练投30球。 就算他在Dallas Baptist University最後一季ERA高达5.40， 国民还是决定选他。 Johansen remembers the day vividly when he threw for the team at Nationals Park. Johansen对他在Nationals Park那天是依旧记忆犹新。 "A few days before the Draft, it was an unforgettable experience in itself to play on that field. It was awesome," Johansen said. ＂就在选秀会的几天前，在那个球场打球是个不可能忘记的美好经验。＂ The Nationals are convinced they can fix any flaws Johansen may have had on the mound. 球团说服自己他们有信心修好Johansen在投手丘上的任何缺陷。 "He is a big, physical, strong starting pitcher. He has a real quick arm and wants to harness his delivery," said Mark Scialabba, the Nationals' director of player development. "He is a sponge right now. He is really working hard at his craft. He is a great makeup guy, and we hope that he takes a big step forward this year." ＂他是个高大强壮又充满活力的先发投手，出手很快也试图驾驭送球动作。＂ 球员培养部大头Mark Scialabba说。 ＂现在的他就像一块海绵，他真的很努力想在明年能更进一步。＂ Johansen, who is ranked by MLB.com as the 12th-best prospect in the Nationals' farm system, took some steps forward during his first season in professional baseball. In 10 starts for Class A Short Season Auburn, Johansen had a 1.06 ERA and struck out 44 batters in 42 1/3 innings. Johansen said he went in with a bulldog mentality and took one inning at a time. Johansen被官网列为国民农场新秀第12名， 短期1A的10次先发中Johansen在42.1局里三振44人次ERA仅1.06。 Johansen说他每个半局上场前都把自己武装成一只斗牛犬。 Then he went to Class A Hagerstown, where he admitted he was physically tired but loved the playoff atmosphere. 接着他前往1A，在那里他承认身体很疲倦但也很爱季後赛氛围。 "We went to the championship game, of course," Johansen said. "The fan support was great. I really enjoyed it." ＂我们前进到冠军战，当然了， 粉丝的声援很棒，我真的很喜欢。＂ Johansen hopes to harness his craft and enjoy better success in the future with the Nationals. Johansen希望能控制自己的技巧，跟着国民享受更美好的成功。 Bill Ladson is a reporter for MLB.com and writes an MLBlog, All Nats All the time. He also could be found on Twitter @WashingNats.
