Free-agent catcher Russell Martin wants to play for Team Canada in the World
Baseball Classic, but the 29-year-old apparently has a pretty strange
request. He wants to play shortstop.
馬丁將代表加拿大出戰2013年經典賽
但他提了一個頗奇怪的要求: 他想站游擊
"If it's something that would help the team, I am willing to do it," Martin
told David Waldstein of The New York Times. "I told [Baseball Canada head
coach] Greg [Hamilton] I want to do it, and he said he's open to it."
馬丁說:
"如果能幫到隊上的話,我都很願意做,我告訴教練我想這麼做(站游擊),而他沒多說什麼"
Martin has played third base and shortstop for Canada and even logged one
game at short as a 19-year-old for the Dodgers' Gulf Coast League affiliate a
decade ago. He has played 15 games at third base in the majors and two
innings at second base. His second base stint was in 2011, and he also played
four innings at third over three games in 2011. All eight of his big-league
starts at third base came for the Dodgers in 2008, his third year in the
majors.
Martin said shortstop is his "most natural" position.
馬丁說他生來就該站游擊
He also said he expects to play in the field more in the future in the big
leagues.
他也希望未來可以多當內野手
另外當然也有提到新合約的進度,詳見連結
