洋基队任命马特布莱克为投手教练

The Yankees have hired Matt Blake to replace Larry Rothschild as their big-league pitching coach, according to a person familiar with the situation.

据一位知情人士透露，洋基已经聘请马特·布莱克接替拉里·罗斯柴尔德，担任他们的大联盟投手教练。

Unlike Rothschild, who has more than 20 years’ experience as a major league coach and was the Yankees’ pitching coach the past nine years, Blake has never been in charge of a big-league staff.

不像罗斯柴尔德，他有20多年的大联盟教练经验，在过去的9年里是洋基的投手教练，布莱克从来没有管理过大联盟的工作人员。

His last job was as the Indians’ pitching coordinator and he worked for the Yankees as an area scout under Matt Hyde, who heads up the Yankees’ amateur scouting program from New Jersey to Maine and is considered among the best in the business.

他的上一份工作是担任印地安人队投手协调人，他在洋基队担任地区球探，负责洋基队从新泽西到缅因州的业余球探计画，被称为是这一行最好的球探之一。

Blake also has been involved with the Cressey Institute, a program that works on the strength aspect of developing athletes and has facilities in Florida and Massachusetts.

布莱克还参与了克雷西学院(Cressey Institute)的项目，该项目致力于培养运动员的力量，在佛罗里达州和马萨诸塞州设有设施。

The Yankees talked to former Yankee pitcher and current YES broadcaster David Cone about the job, as well as Michigan pitching coach Chris Fetter and Arkansas’ Matt Hobbs.

洋基队与前洋基投手、现任YES电视台的大卫-科恩谈过这项工作，以及密歇根投手教练克里斯-费特和阿肯色州的马特-霍布斯。

Tabbing an outsider wasn’t a surprise because the Yankees didn’t renew the contract of pitching coordinator Scott Aldred and fellow pitching coordinator Danny Borrell left the organization to take the pitching coach job at Georgia Tech after the minor league season was over.

洋基队与外援签约并不意外，因为小联盟结束后，洋基队没有与投手协调人斯科特。奥尔德雷德和另一位投手协调人丹尼。博雷尔续签合约，他们离开洋基队，到乔治亚理工担任投手教练的工作。
