[情報] Nick Martinez將在WBC擔任先發投手

https://reurl.cc/eXExnj

SAN DIEGO -- When Nick Martinez first got the offer -- a chance to pitch for Team USA at the World Baseball Classic -- he was elated. It had been something of a dream of his since he’d donned the USA jersey at the Olympics in 2021.

當Nick Martinez首次收到美國隊的邀請時

他相當高興的接受惹，因為穿上美國隊的球衣是他的夢想

Then reality began to set in. Martinez had signed a three-year contract with the Padres as a starting pitcher. Team USA wanted to use Martinez as a reliever. The timing of the World Baseball Classic in mid-March was such that Martinez couldn't possibly pitch in relief, then build up to start for San Diego by the beginning of the season.

Martinez agonized, then made the only logical choice. He withdrew from the WBC -- all while holding out hope that a starting opportunity would emerge.

但在他和教士已轉任先發為前提續約三年後

他不得已選擇退出，因為美國隊是要他來擔任牛棚

Sure enough, a starting job became available -- and it now belongs to Martinez.Following the recent withdrawals of Clayton Kershaw and Nestor Cortes, Martinezwill pitch for Team USA at the World Baseball Classic next month. It’s not yetclear which games Martinez will start, but he’s been assured he’ll be part ofthe rotation.

"It's incredibly special for me to wear this uniform,” Martinez said. “With my family coming from Cuba, coming over here looking for opportunity ... it's incredibly humbling, and it's a great honor.”

但現在美國隊告知他將會在先發輪值內

所以他回來惹
