Wang to work out mechanics in Florida
Right-hander set to pitch at Yanks' Minor League complex
王將到佛州洋基小聯盟中心練習

NEW YORK -- As the Yankees attempt to figure out what has gone awry
with Chien-Ming Wang's mechanics, the struggling right-hander has
been scheduled to pitch an extended spring training game on Thursday
in Tampa, Fla.

王下次投球將在禮拜四 在洋基的坦帕灣延長春訓營. 洋基試圖找出王失去的投球姿勢.

The Yankees announced on Tuesday that they will send Wang to their
Minor League complex, less than 24 hours after deciding that Wang -- who
has logged a 34.50 ERA in three starts -- would be skipped this weekend
against the Red Sox.

在決定跳過王下次先發的二十四小時內, 週二洋基宣布將王送到小聯盟訓練中心.
王三次先發有著高達34.5的自責分率.

"He has struggled, and we've talked about the importance of getting him
right," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "We believe this is another
step in doing it. Instead of not pitching him, we believe he has to
pitch and get this right."

Girardi說, "王狀況一直不佳, 將他狀況調整回來對我們極為重要. 我們相信
他必須要繼續投球才能調整回來, 而不是不投球. "

Wang is scheduled to throw approximately 100 pitches, and Girardi said
that Wang would be examined after that start to see what the next step is.

王計畫投一百球, Girardi說之後在檢討下一步該如何走.

"The important thing is the consistency of his sinker," Girardi said.
"He's gotten up in the zone and that's where his stuff flattens out.
The importance is seeing his sinker down with movement. We'll evaluate
it after that."

Girardi說, "最重要的是他伸卡球的穩定性. 他的球路一直偏高, 導致球往橫向移動
(而不是下墜). 我們希望看到他深卡能投低(或下墜)且有尾勁. 我們之後會再評估."

The Yankees have not announced their starter for April 28 at Detroit,
and general manager Brian Cashman seemed to hint that it will not be Wang,
saying that he would be "surprised" if Wang's stay in Tampa is a one-and-done.

洋基尚未宣布他們4/28面對Detroit的先發投手. Cashman似乎暗示不會是王.
他說王若在坦帕投一次先發就解決問題, 他會很驚訝.

"Obviously we need his mechanics to be down right, and have a good solid
outing where that sinker looks right," Cashman said. "I don't think it's
going to be something that'll be, 'Pow -- it's fixed right away.' We'll see."

Cashman說, "很明顯的我們需要他把姿勢調整回來, 並有一次很好的投球表現.
"我並不覺得這是馬上可以解決的事, 我們到時候可以看看.

While Wang has repeatedly said that he is healthy -- he did so again on
Tuesday -- Cashman said that he is not completely convinced. The Yankees
medical staff will continue to test Wang, making sure that last June's
right foot injury is not affecting him in any way.

王一直強調他的身體沒事 - 他週二又說了一次. Cashman並不百分之百相信.
洋基的醫療團隊將會繼續測試王, 確認去年六月受傷的右腳不再任何方面影響他.

"I'm sure it's going to take some time," Cashman said. "The first [step]
is to try and determine what's wrong. His velocity is down, his command
is off. That could indicate health. He feels so far that he's healthy, so
we're evaluating his mechanics.

Cashman說, "我確定這會花一些時間. 第一步是確定哪裡出了錯. 他的球速下降,
控球不見, 這些都是健康與否的指標. 他感覺他沒事, 所以我們來看看他姿勢怎樣."

"... Those indicators, you can't ignore. I've been down that road before.
I don't rule out health being an issue. As of right now, everything is on
the table and we're in full laboratory mode."

"你無法無視這些指標. 我以前遇過一樣的情形. 我並無法排除健康的因素.
現在這些(因素)都在檯面上, 我們必須像在實驗室一樣的(測試這些指標)."

Wang said that his confidence has not been affected by his struggles, but
Girardi said that he is clearly "chapped" by the experience.

王曾說他的信心並沒有被狀況不好影響, 但是Girardi說他絕對被這些經驗"砍傷"了

"I don't think it's what he necessarily wants to do," Girardi said. "He
wants to pitch. I think he understands that we're doing what we think is
best to get his stuff right. It's hard and it's humbling when you're
struggling and they ask you to do something that's out of the norm."

Girardi說 "我並不覺得這件事(到小聯盟練習)是他想做的. 他想要投球.
我想他知道我們做的是我們覺得對他將他狀況調整回來最好的. 當你狀況差
你很難接受你必須做一些你平常不會做的事."
