Cubs Reliever Brandon Morrow Out for the Season with Biceps Injury
小熊救援投手Brandon Morrow因二頭肌傷勢本季結束
Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Brandon Morrow will miss the rest of the 2018 MLB
season because of a lingering elbow injury.
芝加哥小熊救援投手Brandon Morrow因為手肘傷勢持續,將會缺席本季剩下的比賽。
On Tuesday, Cubs president of baseball operations Theo Epstein announced
Morrow, who's been on the 10-day disabled list since mid-July because of a
bone bruise in his elbow, won't return this year, per Patrick Mooney of The
Athletic.
星期二小熊球隊營運總裁Theo Epstein宣布從七月中就已經在10天DL裡的Brandon Morrow
因為他的手肘骨頭瘀血,本季將不會回歸。
The 34-year-old California native was scheduled to make his return from the
DL this week after sounding an optimistic tone following a bullpen session
Saturday.
Morrow,34歲,出身加州,本來在上星期六牛棚練習後,本以為傷勢樂觀,預計可以從DL
回歸的。
"My mechanics have been free; I don't feel like I'm holding back," he told
reporters. "Everything feels good coming out. My command of my breaking stuff
was really good, I thought. I have plenty to compete and throw the ball
competitively. I'm the sign-off. If it feels the same [Sunday], everything's
all good."
「我的投球機制很順,我不覺得我有保留,」Morrow跟記者說。「每個部分感覺都很好,
我的變化球也控的很不錯,我是這樣認為的。我還有很多可以跟對手較量的,我的投球是
有競爭力的。如果星期天的時候感覺也是如此,一切應該就沒問題了。」

22 of his 24 save opportunities.
