簡單翻翻，請各界多多指教。
※ 引述《HirokiKuroda (黑田博樹)》之銘言：
: Two months removed from going undrafted in the 2018 MLB Draft, it appears
: Luke Heimlich has made no headway in becoming a professional baseball player
: in America, and will head overseas.
在2個月前舉行的2018年大聯盟選秀會上，悍力克在美國成為職業球員的路上受阻，
然後他將前往海外。
: The recent Oregon State University graduate was one of the best pitchers in
: college baseball last year, but he’s also a convicted child molester, which
: has deterred MLB teams from adding him to their roster.
在去年的大學棒球賽中，他是奧勒岡大學近年最好的投手之一，但他也是個兒童性侵者，
這讓他被大聯盟球隊拒於門外。
: In early 2017, a story in The Oregonian revealed Heimlich pleaded guilty to
: molesting his 6-year-old niece when he was 15. He was not drafted through all
: 40 rounds of both last year and this year’s draft, despite having
: early-round potential.
2017上半年，《The Oregonian》（新聞媒體）披露了悍力克曾在15歲時，對6歲的姪女
性侵。這讓他在去年和今年的大聯盟選秀中，共40輪都沒有被選中，即使他擁有
前幾輪身手。
: Since his conviction came to light, Heimlich has insisted that he is
: innocent, and took poor legal advice in the name of simplifying matters for
: his family.
自從曾被定罪的消息曝光後，悍力克堅持他是無辜的，是為了家人才會聽從法律
建議認罪。
: Rumors that Major League teams, including the Kansas City Royals and
: Baltimore Orioles, were considering signing as a free agent him have cropped
: up since, to no avail. A number of team executives told Yahoo Sports that
: they were worried about the potential for backlash, despite consulting with
: MLB officials on how best to address the situation.
一些來自大聯盟球隊的乳摸，包括堪薩斯皇家隊和巴爾的摩金鶯隊，他們曾想用自由球員
簽下悍力克，一些球隊高層告訴雅虎體育，他們擔心反彈聲浪，儘管他們曾與大聯盟官方
就如何用最好的方法解決問題進行了磋商。
: Heimlich to play in Chinese League?
悍力克能在中華(中國?)的聯盟打球？
: Tuesday, the Lamigo Monkeys of the Chinese Professional Baseball League
: announced that they signed Heimlich, and that he is already in Taiwan, where
: the league is based.
週二，中華職棒的Lamigo Monkeys宣布簽下了悍力克，他也已抵達台灣，這個聯盟的
所在地。
: The announcement does not make reference to his criminal record. However, the
: post has drawn a lot of mixed attention, amassing nearly 1000 comments nine
: hours after it was posted. Many of the comments commend the team on signing a
: top talent, despite his unsavory moral history. However, it’s also clear
: that some of the fans don’t know about that history, as in the following
: exchange:
公告並沒有提及悍力克的犯罪記錄，不過卻引起了許多不同的關注，在發布9小時後，
已累計近1000條評論，許多評論稱讚球隊簽下了頂級好手，即使他有道德上的問題，
但也有粉絲完全不明白悍力克過去的歷史，就像以下的評論：
https://imgur.com/nmtx4oJ
: The Chinese Professional Baseball League is home to the highest level of
: players in Taiwan, and includes foreign players from Japan and minor-league
: players from MLB. Players on average make between $5,000 and $12,000 a month,
: but foreign players specifically have been known to make substantially more.
: However, the league has had a number of game-fixing and gambling scandals
: over the past two decades that have lowered its credibility.
CPBL是台灣最高等級的賽事，有台灣球員，也有來自日本和小聯盟的外籍球員，球員平均
月薪介於5000美元至12000美元（編按:約15萬至37萬台幣），不過眾所皆知，外籍球員
月薪會更高。但是過去20年來，這個聯盟有多次簽賭醜聞，導致其可信度下滑。
: Will the CPBL allow Heimlich to play?
CPBL將會允許悍力克加盟嗎？
: According to reports the team or league have yet to confirm, Heimlich’s deal
: with the Monkeys may be blocked due to his criminal record.
根據報導，球隊和聯盟尚未確認悍力克的合約是否有效，由於他的犯罪記錄，他可能無法
披上Monkeys的戰袍。
: The veto would be unsurprising, as last year, the Chinatrust Brothers
: (another CPBL team) signed American minor leaguer Kyle Simon to a contract,
: but it was quickly voided before his arrival due to his history of drug abuse.
就像去年的中信兄弟（CPBL的另一支球隊）一樣，當時他們簽下了小聯盟的Kyle Simon
，但由於他的藥物濫用史，在抵達前就被解約了。
: The Monkeys also have a history of coming down strong on sex abuse charges;
: in 2017, the team allegedly terminated the contract of 2013 Rookie of the
: Year Chiu-Yen Kuo after he faced attempted rape charges.
Monkeys在性侵指控也有類似歷史，2017年，他們將2013年新人王郭修延解約，在郭爆
出涉嫌強姦未遂的醜聞之後。
