[新聞] Wang back in camp
原文簡譯:
小王春訓報到...
台灣媒體High 翻了, 約來了十幾家媒體, 小王是國民隊史上最受人注目的亞洲球員,
故引來一堆台灣媒體的報導。先前對他國民隊會造成多大改變的疑慮, 在週一早上消失了
。
但純粹以棒球的觀點來看，小王到春訓報到其實沒有什麼太大的意義。不過是繼續作
肩膀的復建而已。
Wang back in camp

The dozen or so Taiwanese media members present at Nationals camp this
morning diligently ordered themselves just outside the third-base dugout,
cameras ready to go.
Several players had fun with it, mugging for the cameras as if the attention
was for them. But when Chien-Ming Wang emerged from the home dugout at Space
Coast Stadium to a symphony of shutters and led his entourage to the
outfield, it was clear a new wrinkle had developed in the Nationals' universe.
Wang is the highest-profile Asian player in the team's history, bringing with
him a gaggle of reporters and the attention of the world's most populous
nation. If there was any doubt about how much his presence will change the
Nationals, it disappeared Monday morning.
But from a pure baseball standpoint, Wang's arrival doesn't mean much yet. He
came back Monday after continuing a throwing program in Arizona to rebuild
strength in his surgically-repaired shoulder.
On Monday, he was scheduled to play catch from 120 feet with Jordan
Zimmermann, another pitcher recovering from major surgery. He isn't expected
to be ready for a major-league game until May, and even then, it's uncertain
whether he can regain the form he had when he won a combined 38 games with
the Yankees in 2006-07.
"I know how talented he is," manager Jim Riggleman said. "But like anybody
else, you're vulnerable to elbow and shoulder problems. We hope that those
are behind him by the time he gets on the mound, because he could be a real
boost to this club."
Riggleman refrained from putting a timetable on when Wang could get on the
mound. But if he comes back, he could be a huge boost to the rotation in May
or June. He throws a hard-sinking fastball, and would have a chance to be one
of the Nationals' top starters if he's capable of regaining the form he had
with the Yankees.
"I know the comments the hitters have made about him, that he threw hard and
the ball really sinks," Riggleman said. "He gives you a chance to have some
quick innings, ground-ball outs. You just have to withhold judgment until
he's healthy, and I look forward to that day."
