이거 해석좀...ㅜㅜ 정말 궁금해서요.......

NEW YORK -- The only thing that will keep right-handed reliever Byung-Hyun Kim off Boston's 25-man roster for the American League Championship Series against the Yankees is health, not history, manager Grady Little said on Tuesday.
<br>
"We have a guy who has had some tightness in his shoulder," he said. "We certainly don't want to put someone in a game under those circumstances. We have to make sure that he is 100 percent healthy and feeling good. It's purely physical."
<br>
<br>
Little said that the team would wait until the 10 a.m. ET deadline before submitting the ALCS roster.
<br>
<br>
Kim has a checkered history against the Yankees -- especially in postseason games at Yankee Stadium. While with the Arizona Diamondbacks, he surrendered game-losing home runs in back-to-back games in the 2001 World Series.
<br>
<br>
But Little insists that Kim's health is the only factor in determining his roster status for the ALCS.
<br>
<br>
Kim, acquired from the Diamondbacks on May 29, was used as both a starter and closer by Boston. He registered 16 saves in 19 opportunities, but faltered in Game 1 of the Division Series against the Athletics.
<br>
<br>
Asked to protect a one-run lead, Kim retired two batters, but walked one and hit another as the AL West champions scored a run to tie the game and eventually won it in the 12th inning on a two-out, bases-loaded bunt single.
<br>
<br>
It was Kim's one and only appearance in the best-of-five series.
<br>
<br>
He was unavailable for Game 5 on Monday night and isn't expected to be ready for the series opener, leading to speculation that he probably won't be on the roster.
<br>
<br>
Little is prepared for an ALCS without Kim.
<br>
<br>
"We have three pitchers traveling with us and throwing on the side," he said.
<br>
<br>
The three are right-handed starter Jeff Suppan, and right-handed relievers Todd Jones and Brandon Lyon.
<br>
<br>
Any of those three could replace Kim and probably be used as a long or middle reliever. Little said that if Kim isn't available, he would use certain matchups in game-saving situations, using left-hander Alan Embree against such left-handed hitters as Jason Giambi and Hideki Matsui, and right-handers Mike Timlin and Scott Williams against the likes of Derek Jeter and Alfonso Soriano.
<br>
<br>
"I am going to be real hesitant to use Derek [Lowe] out of the bullpen," he said. "He is going to start Game 2 and Game 6 if we are still playing, and Pedro [Martinez] will start Game 3 and Game 7 if we're still playing."
<br>
<br>
Lowe, the former closer who saved Game 5 in Oakland on Monday night, started one Division Series game and pitched in relief in two others.
<br>
<br>
"The starters I would use in the bullpen are [John] Burkett and [Tim] Wakefield," Little added. "But the main thing is, we don't want to go into this series short-handed."
<br>
<br>
General manager Theo Epstein gave the Red Sox bullpen a verbal high-five.
<br>
<br>
"It was satisfying to see the bullpen used as a sword, not a shield," he said. "We had some guys down there really step up. I said before the series that the bullpen was a key, and they had a great series."
<br>
<br>
With Game 1 slightly more than 24 hours away, Little said that his biggest decision would "hinge on the health of a couple of our players. Once we find out about Johnny [Damon] and B.K., things will fall into place easily."

뒷북이어도 .... 이해해주세요 ㅠㅠ

첫댓글 별로 좋은 내용이 아니군요.김병현을 로스터에 포함안시킬수도 있다는 말입니다..김병현을 대체할 선수로는 제프수판,토드존슨,브랜든 라이언이 있음...뭐..이정도.
헉..정말요? 이런... 약간 충격입니다 아직 로스터가 발표 안되어서 잘모르겟는데...왠지..불안하군요..
김병현의 손가락사건만으로 혹은 양키에게 약하다는 역사적 사실만으로 로스터 제외를 고려하지 않겠다는 말같네요. 몸 컨디션이 중요하니..현재 몸상태의 회복이 없으면 쓰지 않겠다.......라는 요지같네요.. 그렇게 나쁘게만 들리지 않는듯....
그래도 아직은 희망이 있군요. 데이먼과 같이 내일까지 계속 상태를 체크할 거라니. 아 뭐가 진실이고 거짓인지 정말 모르겠다.
그런데 2001년도 월드시리즈 얘기는 항상 나오는군요...-_-;;..이 기사도..지겹다;
병현님의 양키스에 대한 징크스나..전에 있었던일들과 상관없이 컨디션만 100%로 회복하면 로스터레 포함한다는 얘긴데..리틀감독 말이 믿을만한건지..ㅡㅡ^
로우를 불펜으로 쓰는것두 고려하는거 같구요..일단 로우는 game 2 와 game 6에서 선발로 등판한데요..페드로는 game 3 랑 game 7..만약에 그때까지 챔피온시리즈가 끝나지 않는다면..ㅋㅋ
선발투수들 진짜 피곤하겠네요..특히 로우..
로우 혹사모드..-_-;;..어제 로우공은 정말 예술이던데.
중간중간 중요한 부분만 말씀드리면... 김병현선수를 로스터에 포함시키느냐 마느냐는 history(양키스 악몽을 말하는것 같군요)에 달린것이 아니라 순전히 김병현선수의 건강상태와 컨디션에 달렸다는 것, 김선수가 로스터에 포함되지 않을수도 있다는 전망,
감독이 김선수 없는 챔피언쉽을 대비하고 있다는 이야기 정도군요...
답글에 안나온 얘기를 덧붙이자면 세이브 상황에서 지암비나 마쓰이가 나오면 엠브리로 대처하고 지터나 소리아노가 나오면 팀린이나 윌리암슨으로 대처한다는 얘기도 있군요.
이런 땜빵식 경기 운영으로 과연 양키스를 물리칠수 있을까요? 점점 전망이 아득해지네요...
