Miller likely to miss season with foot surgery Red Sox reliever was enjoying fine season in bullpen prior to injury http://t.co/9XN4IkCvc9 SEATTLE -- Red Sox manager John Farrell revealed before Monday's game against the Mariners that reliever Andrew Miller will need foot surgery, saying that it was "unlikely" the left-hander would return to the bullpen this season. Farrell在賽前透露Andrew Miller的腳需要動手術，本季歸隊的可能性很低。 Miller left Saturday's game against the Angels with a left foot injury. The loss of Miller further depletes Boston's ailing bullpen. The Red Sox lost closer Joel Hanrahan for the season in May and reliever Franklin Morales is on the DL. Miller的受傷讓本來就有傷兵問題(Hanrahan & Morales)的牛棚更糟糕。 Preliminary X-rays taken on Saturday at a hospital in Anaheim did not show a break in Miller's foot. Miller, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list, flew back to Boston on Sunday night to be examined extensively on Monday by the team's renowned foot specialist, Dr. George Theodore 初步的X光結果顯示Miller沒骨折，而在被放入15添傷兵名單後飛回波士頓找足部專家 Dr. George Theodore檢查。 Prior to his injury, Miller had been enjoying one of his best seasons, now in his second full year as a reliever. The former first-round pick in the 2006 First-Year Player Draft was a starter with the Tigers, Marlins and Red Sox, This season, the 28-year old has a 2.64 ERA, striking out 48 batters in 30 2/3 innings. As a starter, his best year was in 2008 with the Marlins, when he went 6-10 with a 5.87 ERA. "From the role change to the change in his delivery, which has allowed him to repeat a release point more consistently, and really to harness well above-average stuff," Farrell said. "There are many examples of lefties coming along at different points in their career, and he was another example of that happening a little bit later than maybe he first anticipated." 2006年老虎用第一輪籤選進Miller(以先發投手身分)，後來為了改善出手連續性的問題轉 戰牛棚。 Craig Breslow is currently the only left-handed reliever in Boston's bullpen. Breslow現在是牛棚中唯一一位左投。 -- 去市場上買個牛吧... -- "HARD WORK BEATS TALENT WHEN TALENT FAILS TO WORK HARD." --
