来听听Friedman对这笔签约的说法 Friedman says RHP Hernandez a "risk-reward" signing with "really compelling" upside DECEMBER 18, 2012 JOE SMITH The Rays haven't decided whether newly-acquired righthander Roberto Hernandez - formerly known as Fausto Carmona - will be used as a starter or as a reliever. 光芒还没决定新援Roberto Hernandez（大家比较熟悉的名字是Fausto Carmona） 下季的定位。先发？後援？ But executive vice president Andrew Friedman said the veteran could compete for a spot in the rotation and - either way - could play a big role in their 2013 season. 但光芒执行副总Andrew Friedman认为这位老将可以成为轮值中的一员，也许可 以成为2013赛季重要一员。 Hernandez's one-year, $3.25 million deal (with $1.85 million in incentives) was officially announced Tuesday, with Tampa Bay hoping the former All-Star returns to old form under a new name. Hernandez正式在周二签下一年$3.25M（包含$1.85M激励条款），光芒期待这位换 了新名字前全明星可以恢复到过去的水准。 "We feel like this is a one of those risk-reward stories that makes a lot of sense for us," Friedman said. "Upside is really compelling." 「我们认为这是个值得冒险的投资。」Friedman说。「他的天分令人期待。」 Hernandez is coming off a controversial, unproductive year with the Indians. He began the season on MLB's restricted list due to visa issues stemming from an offseason false-identity arrest in the Dominican Republic. After returning to the United States, he served a three-week suspension and was activated. A sprained right ankle on August 27 ended his season (0-3, 7.53 ERA). Hernandez在印第安人过了充满争议且毫无贡献的一年。因为伪造身分被多明尼加官 方逮捕，後续造成的签证问题让大联盟一开季就将他放入受限名单。回到美国本土接受 三周的禁赛，好不容易重新站上大联盟投手丘又因为八月二十七日扭伤右踝结束赛季， 只留下0胜3败，防御率7.53的成绩。 Friedman said that, in many ways, 2012 was a "lost year" for Hernandez, but they're confident in his makeup and that he'd fit in "extremely well" in the Rays clubhouse. Hernandez brings experience, with the seven-year veteran making the All-Star team in 2010, when he was the Indians Opening Day starter. 关於这件事，Friedman表示「从各个角度来看，2012是Hernandez失落的一年，但 我们很相信他的心理素质，而且对光芒来说是个完美的结合。这位老将在大联盟打滚了 七年，2010年入选全明星，当年他更是印第安人开幕赛的先发。」 His best season came in 2007, when he finished fourth in the AL Cy Young voting (19-8, 3.06 ERA). On the mound, Friedman cited Hernandez's ability to pitch 200-plus innings (twice in his seven-year career), and groundball ratio as strengths. 他的生涯年是2007年，以19胜8败，防御率3.06的好表现在美联赛扬奖票选中，名 列第四。Friedman坚信Hernandez有能力贡献200局以上的投球局数（生涯两度），并提 供很稳定的滚地球率。 And with the Rays trading James Shields, a perennial 200-inning pitcher, and Wade Davis to the Royals, Friedman said accounting for the lost innings was "very much on our mind." 在光芒送走James Shields这位常年贡献200局的投手後，Friedman说如何补偿其中 局数的落差一直是管理层关心的问题。 "This guy has got really good stuff," Friedman said. "The two-seamer, which he gets a lot of ground balls, slider, changeup. We feel like he has the repertoire to get out righthanded and left-handed hitters." 「这家伙有很棒的投球品质。」Friedman说「他的二缝线速球可以制造很多滚地球 另外还有滑球和变速球。我们认为他有能力解决打者，不论左打右打。」 注：根据Marc Topkin的报导， Hernandez合约中$3.25M是受保障的， 激励条款则会因定位（这部分交由教练团协商）而异， 如果先发出赛一定局数可以获得$1.25M的奖励； 後援出场一定次数可以获得$0.60M的奖励。 连结：http://tinyurl.com/cq89sc4 http://tinyurl.com/c97fsj9 --
