02/06/2008 10:00 AM ET Around the Horn: Bullpen Fiery Papelbon captains Red Sox's relief corps By Ian Browne / MLB.com 出处：http://kuso.cc/3de$ BOSTON -- Any discussion of the Red Sox's bullpen starts with the finisher. In Jonathan Papelbon, Boston has a man who just might be the most dominant closer in the game. 任何有关於袜子牛棚的讨论都在於他们的终结者身上。Papelbon，袜子国内 在比赛中最具有主宰能力的终结者。 When Papelbon opens the bullpen door and does his signature sprint to the mound, the Red Sox essentially assume the game is over, and they have good reason to believe that. 当Papelbon打开牛棚的门并且用他那特别的步伐跑向投手丘时，比赛便已经结束， 而且他们有一拖拉库理由相信一定是这样。 You can count on one hand the number of times Papelbon doesn't come through over the course of a long season. 在漫长赛季中，Papelbon没有让大家高潮的次数可以用一只手数出来。 In helping the 2007 Red Sox win their first American League East title since '95, Papelbon converted 37 of his 40 save opportunities while posting a 1.85 ERA. But a look at some of the less obvious numbers give a more telling look at Papelbon's dominance. 在帮助袜子夺下自05年以後第一座美东冠军头衔上，Papelbon在40次救援机会中 拿下了37次，并有着1.85防御率。但是让我们来看看一些平淡无奇的数据，更可以 告诉我们为何Papelbon比那条雄鳟鱼更加雄壮威武了。 The flame-throwing right-hander had 12.96 strikeouts per nine innings while holding opponents to a meager .146 average. 这一位右投手平均每九局可以k掉12.96个打者，并让对手只有.146打击率。 If you thought he peaked in the regular season, you must not have watched the postseason. In that pressurized environment, Papelbon didn't allow a run in his seven outings, while striking out 10 and converting all four of his save opportunities. 如果你认为他只有在吃了斑龙丸後的一小时内才威猛，那你一定是没有看过他是如何 在季後赛让我们裤铛都湿透了。在压力如此大的环境下，Papelbon在他七次上场中 ，没有失掉任何一分，并且全部救援成功。 The image of Papelbon throwing his glove into the air after striking out the Rockies' Seth Smith to clinch the World Series is one that will hold a special place in Red Sox lore. 当在世界大赛中三振掉落机的Seth Smith之後Papelbon把他的保险套，不对！是手套 丢到空中的那一个画面，将来一定会成为袜子的一个传奇故事。 The best news for the Sox is not what Papelbon has already done, but what he should continue to do. At the age of 27, Papelbon is right in the middle of his prime. 当然对於袜子们来说最棒的不是Papelbon已经给我们所带来的高潮，而是如何 让这份快感持续下去。Papelbon已经27岁，而正是他生涯中最辉煌的时段之中！ In order to continue to get championship opportunities, Papelbon will need plenty of help from his setup crew. 为了能够继续维持霸业让客官们满足，Papelbon需要一位好帮手来帮助他先把前戏演好。 The single biggest surprise of the 2007 season for the Red Sox was the emergence of lefty Hideki Okajima. When he was acquired as a free agent from Japan, barely anybody noticed. 在07年时候袜子们最大的惊奇莫过於左投手冈岛了。当他从日本被以FA身份 签下来时候，根本没有人鸟他。 But Okajima -- backed by a new changeup -- had a tremendous year, posting a 2.22 ERA over 66 outings and making the 2007 AL All-Star team via the Fan Vote. 但是冈岛，完全的变身了！有着令人惊奇的一年，在六十六次上场中有着2.22 ERA 并且拿到了美联明星赛票选的提名。 It is fair to wonder if Okajima can duplicate that rookie season. After all, hitters now have a full season of familiarity with him. Adjustments are key in baseball, and hitters will make plenty. Will Okajima be able to counter? 我们很难去期待冈岛会有和今年一样的表现。毕竟所有打着已经面对他一整季， 对他已经熟悉多了。调整是棒球中最重要的一环，打者在面对他时候会穿上好自 在让自己较为舒适一点不会不习惯。冈岛在之後还能够这麽威猛？ If Okajima can't be quite as good in 2008 as he was last year, Manny Delcarmen just might emerge into Papelbon's top setup man. Delcarmen has electric stuff -- mid-90s heat to go with plus-breaking stuff. He sometimes struggles with his command. That said, Delcarmen made a big leap in the second half of 2007, and the Red Sox hope that momentum carries over into '08. 如果冈岛在08年没有办法像07年一样给大家这麽满意，Delcarmen会是帮Papelbon 把前戏搞好的男主角。Delcarmen有着不错的球路，mid-90s heat to go with plus-breaking stuff(这边我不知道那是啥球种-_-)。Delcarmen时常说他努力的 在锻练他的家伙。这说明了他在07年後半季为何如此威猛，袜子们也希望这一份 威猛能够一直持续到08年。 Once again, Mike Timlin -- he of the four World Series rings -- will be a contributor in Boston's bullpen. As it turns out, rumors of Timlin's demise were premature. 再一次大叔，有着四枚冠军戒指，又要继续在牛棚里演出剧场。不过现在看来 似乎这一切都言之过早。 剩下明天继续...打了两天麻将，快挂了 After an injury-plagued 2006 and more injures at the start of '07, Timlin -- who turns 42 in March -- finished strong and was highly dependable in the second half and into the postseason. 在经过了06年的手术治疗以及07年一开季时候的手术，大叔在三月将要进入42岁了。 他仍然是一位在季後赛以及比赛後段可以给人依靠感以及欢乐剧场的人。 Lefty specialist Javy Lopez needs to do a better job of retiring lefties than he did in 2007. Perplexingly, the side-winding southpaw limited righties to a .176 average, while lefties hit him at a .293 clip. Javy Lopez必须要在面对左打者时比07年有着更棒的表现才可以让客倌们满足。 令人难为情的是，他在面对右打者被打击率有0.176，但左打者高达0.293。 Julian Tavarez and Kyle Snyder are the other returnees of Boston's bullpen. While Tavarez came up with some important starts for the Red Sox during his time in the rotation, he never really found a niche in manager Terry Francona's bullpen. There's been some talk that Tavarez will be traded before the start of the season. 大宝和清流则双双重返了袜子的牛棚之中。当他一开始从先发轮值圈重返牛棚时， 他曾经一度不举无法让粉科南满足。现在则有传言说他会在开季时後被交易。 Snyder, who came up through the ranks as a starter, made a smooth adjustment to life in the bullpen last season. Snyder was a solid middle man, posting a 3.81 ERA in 46 appearances. 清流曾经被视为一位先发投手，上一季在牛棚他表现的不赖。他是一位稳固的中继投手 ，在46次出场机会有着3.81的era The Red Sox have not made any significant additions to last year's bullpen. But from within, Craig Hansen might finally emerge. A first-round Draft pick in 2005, Hansen has struggled to make the leap to the Major Leagues. In fact, the Red Sox didn't call him up at all in '07. 在去年一整季袜子们并没有在牛棚做什麽特别的改变。根据内部说法，Hansen可能最 後还是会被放在牛棚。这一位在05年第一轮选秀进来的新秀，在大联盟最初的表现很 糟糕。事实上，袜子们在07年时後也没有把他叫上来过。 Hansen underwent surgery to correct sleep apnea over the offseason, and the Red Sox are hoping that will improve the right-hander's energy level. Hansen在球季结束後去动了手术改善他喜欢窒息式性爱的怪癖，袜子们期待 这可以让他的查克拉再一次的增加。 Bullpen depth might be an area that general manager Theo Epstein will try to improve over the course of Spring Training. 牛棚深度可能是我们的帅哥经理要在春训时候尝试去增加的的一环。 翻完了 抱歉拖了几天 -- M.Lowell J.Lugo J.Varite Dice-K D.Pedroi D.Ortiz M.Ramire C.Crisp J.D.Drew Ｂ ╴ Ｂ ╴ Ｂ ╴ Ｂ ╴ Ｂ ╴ Ｂ ╴ Ｂ ╴ Ｂ ╴ Ｂ ═ ═ ‧ ‧ ︿ ︿○▁ ▁ ≧ ≦ ⊙ ⊙ / ˙ ˙ \ — — ˙ ˙ ︺ ▇︶▇ ▽ \ ⊿ ◢ ﹀ ↗ ▄︿▄ / ▁︹▁ | – \ ︺ < y \ / /■■■╯ｍ╯ ☆ // @m > < / ╰╰ ╯ The| \ Bos / \ton ◢▼◣ Red/　| Sox \ \ | \ φwillmango ＜ \, Ptt/ ╰ --
