斷手火球朱瑪亞雙城新天地　老火球柯隆成運動家

者陶本和／綜合報導

去年從洋基重新出發的老年「火球男」柯隆(Bartolo Colon)，據ESPN報導，同意一紙一年合約改披運動家戰袍，同樣是「火球男」的朱瑪亞(Joel Zumaya)效力老虎5年，也傳出將轉戰明尼蘇達雙城隊。

柯隆2009年受傷後，休養一整個球季去年在洋基復出，表現可圈可點，雖然賽季後段有些後繼無力，不過總體而言還算及格，根據ESPN報導，柯隆只要經過體檢，即可從運動家拿到一紙200萬美元(約6千萬台幣)的合約。

年已39歲的柯隆去年開季初先發登場11場球，繳出6勝2敗，防禦率2成71，不過可能是年齡已高，導致本季開高走低，賽季後段出現亂流，共出賽29場繳出8勝10敗，防禦率4成的成績。

另一名也找到新東家的「斷手火球男」朱瑪亞，他向MLB官網表示已經和雙城隊答城一年80至170萬美金的合同(約2400萬至5100萬台幣)，其中還包含了激勵獎金，據報導指出，一直到周六(台北時間15日)他的經紀人韓崔克斯(Randy Hendricks)還在跟許多球團談判，最後朱瑪亞表示接受了雙城隊提出的條款。

2010年7月28日朱瑪亞出戰雙城，投至8局，火球飆過頭導致右手肘骨折，當場不支倒地，他的最快球速記錄是104英哩(約168公里)，2006年他首度登上大聯盟，當季出賽62場就繳出6勝3敗防禦率1成94的亮眼成績。

防禦率計算用"幾成"....
這個記者是完全不懂棒球而被迫跑棒球新聞嗎....

這聽起來真的比打擊率4成還威

Rockies make offer to veteran Moyer

For now, the Rockies’ 2012 potential Opening Day starting rotation can be called the “under-30 club.” But that could change, considerably, with one potential signing.

Looking for a veteran to help guide the young rotation, the Rockies could be bringing in the veteran – 49-year-old left-hander Jamie Moyer. The Rockies have made an offer of a Minor League contract, and a club official told MLB.com on Tuesday morning that “it’s in his court.”

Moyer had Tommy John ligament transfer surgery in his throwing elbow in December 2010 and worked for ESPN as an analyst last year, but stated all along he hoped to pitch again in 2012. He went 9-9 with a 4.84 ERA for the Phillies in 2010.

By making the offer, the Rockies are signaling that they believe Moyer can be a help to them, not merely a novelty, although his potential signing sparks folks to go digging for trivia. For example, when Moyer made his Major League debut for the Cubs on June 16, 1986, the following competitors for the Rockies’ 2012 rotation had not been born: Jhoulys Chacin (Jan. 7, 1988), Tyler Chatwood (Dec. 16, 1989), Juan Nicasio (Aug. 31, 1986), Drew Pomeranz (Nov. 22, 1988) and Alex White (Aug. 29, 1988).

One of Moyer’s teammates on the 1986 Cubs was Rockies television color commentator George Frazier, then a relief pitcher.

The Denver Post, which reported the offer to Moyer on Monday night, also reported that the Rockies are looking at trading for a second baseman, with the Red Sox’s Marco Scutaro and the Mets’ Justin Turner as possibilities.
