박찬호선수 관련 기사 - LA 다저스 투수진 조정이 예상됩니다.
LA 다저스 가르시아파라 선수가 금요일 부상자 명단에서 복귀합니다. 이에 따라 LA 다저스 투수진의 조정이 예상됩니다.
토레 감독은 11명 투수진을 운영할 가능성은 여전히 남아 있다고 말했으며 (시즌 동안 팀을) 길게 이끌어가야 하기 때문에 (11명으로 투수진을 운영) 하고 싶지 않지만, 11명으로 갈수도 있다 라고 말했습니다. 또한 아직 누구인지는 결정하지 않았지만 현재 상태에서 어떤 선택을 하는 것이 합리적인지 결정해야 한다고 말했습니다.
아래 기사에는 다저스가 롱릴리프를 두명 보유하고 있다면서 로아이자와 박찬호를 조정 대상을 보고 있습니다. 4/15일 경기에서는 로아이자가 선발 궈홍치에 이어 5이닝 1실점으로 선방하였습니다.
이날 경기에서 로아이자가 안정을 찾아가는 모습을 보임에 따라 박찬호가 최근 4경기에서 방어율 1.50을 기록하고는 있지만 위치가 다소 불확실해 지는 것 같습니다. 12명 투수진에서 박찬호가 아니길 바라며 다저스가 어떤 선택을 할지 지켜봐야 겠습니다.

Garciaparra to be activated Friday
Dodgers infielder has been sidelined with fractured hand
By Glenn Rabney / Special to MLB.com
LOS ANGELES -- When the Dodgers leave for Atlanta on Thursday, joining them on the five-game road trip will be Nomar Garciaparra, who, according to Manager Joe Torre, will be activated in time for Friday's game.
"I spoke with him earlier and he's fine," Torre said on Tuesday. "He had a good day."
The plan is for Garciaparra to play in one more rehab assignment early Wednesday, then rejoin the club on Thursday for the trip east.
Monday night in Sacramento, Calif., Garciaparra went 3-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a walk, while starting the game at third base.
For Garciaparra, it's been a much longer recovery than originally expected after suffering a fractured right hand when he was struck by a pitch on March 7 by Cardinals hurler Kyle McClellan. At that time, it was thought to be a day-to-day injury, but has since grown into a frustrating five weeks.
Torre said that he wasn't concerned that Garciaparra was hitless in seven at-bats up until last night, rather, it was a matter of how Garciaparra felt.
"The thing I look for is that he seems pretty comfortable," said Torre, adding, "The three hits certainly helps him in the timing part."
As for roster moves, the Dodgers are still weighing their options.
"There is a possibility that that we can go to 11 pitchers," Torre said.
With Esteban Loaiza and Chan Ho Park, the Dodgers have a couple of long-relief pitchers, which gives them some flexibility.
According to Torre, "It's something for the long haul we're not going to do, but there is a possibility that we can do it."
"We haven't settled in on one person yet," Torre explained. "We have to figure out what makes sense at this place and time."
Part of the decision-making process is based on how Garciaparra will respond to playing regularly.
"We'll have to see what we're doing and what Nomar can do physically," Torre said. "Does he play three and get one off? I don't know that. I think we'll have to figure that out."
The most important thing is to make sure that they don't do anything to make the injury flare up again.
"It's not like he's going to play till it hurts," Torre said. "I think we have to devise some kind of plan or routine that makes sense in keeping it from being a problem.
"There is a difference between playing hurt and playing stupid."
