Sox place Matsuzaka on DL with shoulder strain
09:31 PM EDT on Wednesday, April 15, 2009
By JOE McDONALD / Journal Sports Writer

OAKLAND, Calif. — The Red Sox Wednesday placed pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka on
the 15-day disabled list because of a mild right-shoulder strain and called
up reliever Hunter Jones from Pawtucket to fill his roster spot.

Francona said that Matsuzaka is not injured, but is feeling the effects of
pitching in the World Baseball Classic for Japan. He will be examined by team
physician Dr. Thomas Gill on Friday in Boston before a rehab program is put
into place.

Despite the soreness, Matsuzaka was playing long toss Wednesday morning at
Oakland Coliseum to test a stiff neck, too.

Matsuzaka, lasted only one inning and allowed five runs on five hits against
Oakland on Tuesday night in a game the Sox lost to the Athletics in 12
innings, 6-5. Despite suffering from arm fatigue, he was not happy that he
was removed from the game after throwing only 43 pitches (22 strikes).

Matsuzaka was not with the Sox during spring training due to the World
Baseball Classic. He was named the MVP of the tourney after going 3-0 with a
2.45 ERA in three starts for Japan. He pitched a total 1462/3 innings as
Japan retained  its title.

According to Red Sox manager Terry Francona, a couple of days ago Matsuzaka
said  he was feeling “general soreness or fatigue” in the back of his
shoulder. There was some thought to pushing him back a start if he wasn’t
healthy enough to pitch, but after their conversation in Anaheim, Francona
believed everyone was on the same page.

“We thought we talked it through pretty good in Anaheim, and he came out
tonight and didn’t have a whole lot,” Francona said. “We’ll re-evaluate
him in the morning ... We talked to him the other day about this because we
knew he was fatigued. He came out of the WBC and felt like he probably ramped
up too quick. Those are the things we worry about. Then he threw his bullpen
[in Anaheim] and assured us he was fine.”

It was his worst outing since June 21, 2008, against the Cardinals, when he
surrendered seven runs on six hits with three walks, facing nine batters in
the first inning and only three in the second.

On Tuesday night, it was evident early that he wasn’t right.
Matsuzaka spoke with Francona after the game and told his manager: “
Personally, I think I’m fine.”
Now he’s on the DL.

“Contrary to what Daisuke said [Tuesday] night, he understands it,” said
Francona. “I think sometimes guys say some things when they’re trying to
compete. We just want him to be able to be Daisuke and not a part of Daisuke.
”After Matsuzaka left the manager’s office Wednesday morning, he had a
completely different outlook on the situation.
“It’s still early in the season, so I want to take this in a positive light,
” he said. “I respect and appreciate the ballclub’s decision to give me
time to deal with my fatigue, and I’m going to do everything I can to get
back to where I need to be as soon as possible. I’m glad it’s early, and
the only thing I can do is move forward.”

Francona said he’s going to wait to announce who will start in Dice-K’s
place on Monday. Not only is he dealing with that situation, the manager is
also dealing with Josh Beckett’s six-game suspension. Francona does not know
when the club’s appeal will be heard on Beckett.

Reliever Justin Masterson will certainly be an option for the Red Sox because
he’s stretched out.

“I’m ready for anything,” said the always-upbeat Masterson.
When Matsuzaka returned from the WBC as the tourney’s MVP, the Red Sox had
no indication there was anything wrong with him. The Sox did have someone
with him during Matsuzaka’s warmup for the WBC.
"That’s hard to tell,” said Francona. “He’s coming off a game where he’
s pitching his heart out with a lot of emotion, and then you come back to a
spring-training game.”


★台灣新聞（真的夠誇張的）：

松坂一局爆 失5分直接退場

建仔本季第二度先發，投出個人在大聯盟最慘烈一戰，讓球迷紛紛擔心他的狀況是否有異，
不過大聯盟強投開季落難似乎已經不是新聞，昨天松坂大輔掛帥對戰運動家，
同樣一局丟掉五分退場，成為尋找季初球感落魄強投俱樂部成員。　
其實松坂自經典賽歸來後，在上一場對光芒的比賽就被轟三支全壘打，不過他至少還撐到第六局才退場，
昨天對運動家只投了第一局，被打超過一輪，十人次中有五支安打、兩次保送、丟掉五分，
第二局紅襪就沒再讓他上場當砲灰，改以麥斯特森應戰。
不過松坂不愧強運魔人，紅襪終場雖以五比六輸球，但因隊友在第五局替他追平比數解套，
這位兩屆經典賽MVP最後還是逃過敗戰命運。

松坂也是一局爆 但他逃過敗投    (← 這什麼標題?) 

〕「台灣之光」王建民前天一局爆，波士頓紅襪的松坂大輔昨天也步建仔後塵，一局被敲5安、掉5分都為責失，
防禦率高達12.79，最後運動家在延長第十二局以6：5擊敗紅襪。
紅襪目前戰績不佳，在美聯東區墊底，強投貝克特又被禁賽6場，可謂雪上加霜，但對世仇洋基算是好消息。
松坂昨天共投43球，好球只有22個，壞球21個，好壞球比例將近1：1，松坂還送出2次四壞，沒有任何三振，
運動家第一局就打了10棒次，這是松坂在大聯盟先發最短的局數，松坂上次先發對光芒表現也欠佳，主投5.1局、被敲9安、
掉4分皆為責失，吞下敗投。

松坂下次先發預定下週二對金鶯，但他賽後表示，「我覺得狀況還好，但比賽後還沒機會和總教練談話」，
「我希望下次先發按原訂時程，是否有變還要經過討論。」
紅襪總教練法蘭柯納表示，松坂和紅襪隊都為世界經典賽付出代價（松坂為日本隊主力投手並贏得經典賽MVP），
紅襪開季8場比賽輸了6場，「這是個一點都不好玩的夜晚。」 法蘭柯納要擔心的不只松坂，
日前貝克特在與天使隊比賽，對阿布瑞尤一記頭部近身球，引發兩邊板凳衝出，
聯盟認為貝克特故意將球丟到靠近頭部位置，宣布貝克特禁賽6場，還必須繳付罰款。



MLB／松坂大輔進傷兵　紅襪教頭牽拖全因經典賽

經過兩次難堪先發，松坂大輔以右肩疲勞性緊繃為由進入傷兵名單，好好休息。
而紅襪總教練法蘭科納（Terry Francona）則將原因歸咎於經典賽，因為太早進入比賽狀態，
以致於球季剛開打時就出現球速下降、變化球無法到位等疲勞現象。 

以往球速動輒超過93英哩的松坂，近兩場比賽先發平均速度只有88英哩，而且球路偏高，
以致遭到砲轟，僅6.1局投球就被擊出14支安打，包含3發全壘打，目前0勝1敗，防禦率高達12.79。
法蘭柯納說這是經典賽造成的後果，但松坂並不這麼認為。 

「昨夜我和松坂長談，我認為他的疲勞是經典賽造成，但他並不同意我的說法，但我知道他懂我的意思。」
法蘭柯納說道，「我覺得當人不服輸的時候，總會說些話為自己辯解。我們最後還是把他放進DL，
到週五時再看看他的狀況到底如何。」松坂去年曾因右手旋轉肌痠痛進入傷兵名單，共休息一個月。

經典賽期間，紅襪在春訓營透過隨行日本的防護員，觀察松坂狀況。即使有如此防範措施，
法蘭科納認為還是很難掌握真實情形，畢竟兩地相隔超過6000哩，資訊吸收難免會有落差，
球團還是無法完全了解球員動態。松坂預計在兩週後歸隊，但法蘭柯納卻說，一切還是未知數，
他要求平成怪物完全沒問題後，才能出賽。 

事實上是否因為經典賽緣故造成疲勞見仁見智，達比修有、岩隈久志回國後仍表現正常，
達比修還投了一場無四死球完投。而墨西哥主力，現為紐約大都會投手培瑞茲（Oliver Perez）回到母隊後曾直接向球團表明，
他的確已經累了。培瑞茲第二次先發進入狀況，對教士投6局只失1拿下勝投，但防禦率仍高達7.84。
