这是一月的旧文章，不过可以看看Peterson来做了什麽 缩址 http://ppt.cc/Luh5 Rick Peterson brings biomechanical analysis to the Orioles January 20, 2012 10:05 AM by Steve Melewski Rick Peterson has 12 years of experience as a major league pitching coach, most recently with Milwaukee in 2010. Yesterday, he officially joined the Orioles as the club's director of pitching development. Peterson will oversee the organization's pitching development program. 找了老皮来负责投手培训 With Peterson now on board, Orioles pitchers, at both the major and minor league levels, are going to become familiar with something called biomechanical analysis. It's a little more involved than "work fast and throw strikes." 老皮带了一套应用了生物力学分析的训练方法进来 Peterson co-founded a company with noted Birmingham, Ala., orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews that features the analysis and he has used it throughout his career as a pitching coach. His Oakland A's pitchers finished in the top three in ERA in the American League every year from 1999-2003, including league-leading ERAs in 2002 and 2003. 这是跟Andrews医生合作发展的，当初在绿帽的效果显着 So, in a nutshell, what the heck is biomechanical analysis? "It's based on Dr. Andrews research at ASMI (American Sports Medicine Institute) to get an MRI of the pitching delivery to make sure that the measurements in that delivery are falling into normative range to optimize performance and reduce the risk of injury," Peterson said. 基本上就是用MRI拍摄投球动作来分析是否有提升空间及受伤风险 If those measurements are not in the normal range, than adjustments can be made. "Then you take a look at it," he said. "Is this a mechanical issue, is it a medical issue or is it a conditioning issue? It's one of those three and now you are able to pinpoint that specifically and then you can address it. "Just because you are pitching really good does not mean you are not a risk of injury. Mark Prior was one of the top guys in the game, but he obviously had a flaw that led to injury that really impacted his career." 不能因为你投得很好就代表没有受伤风险， Mark "Baker sucks" Prior就是一个例子， More than 20 years ago, Dr. Andrews started biomechanical analysis in Birmingham and that year, Peterson just happened to be the pitching coach for the Chicago White Sox's Double-A team in town. The Sox wanted Peterson to take some pitchers to see Andrews and his new method of analyzing pitchers. 20几年前老皮刚入行时白袜要他带几个投手去找Andrews医生， 故事就此开始.. "I was the first person to ever walk into his lab when they opened the doors back in 1989. He had just worked on Roger Clemens' shoulder and he wondered if there was a way to prevent some of these injuries and optimize performance," Peterson said. "We built this system around his research to train pitchers at the highest level. We looked at a whole series of drills to build a system to find what drills could train the delivery to stay at the normative range at the highest level. We did this in Oakland and took (Tim) Hudson and (Barry) Zito to the lab early on in their careers. 3Psports is the amateur version of this program. bla..bla..bla...，以前在绿帽曾带Zito跟Hudson来做这些。 "In Major League Baseball over the last decade, just over $1.2 billion has been spent on pitching salaries. Just over $330 million of that has been spent on injured pitchers. It's epidemic. In the amateur market, Tommy John surgeries are up over 700 percent in the last decade. Obviously, something is off track here. Look at what these injuries are costing organizations. 开TJ的人越来越多，这些都是成本!(老板调) "We went back and looked at pitchers like Jim Palmer, Don Sutton, Steve Carlton and Bob Gibson - how did they stay healthy and pitch so well? - and there were some common threads. Based on all this, with the collaboration of Dr. Andrews, we built a pitching philosophy and program." Jim Palmer，Don Sutton，Steve Carltone跟Bob Gibson怎麽可以这麽能撑?! Peterson said there will be a lab at spring training in Sarasota where he can provide analysis for some Orioles' pitchers. The analysis will provide measurements to be studied. 会在金鸟的春训基地弄个实验室来分析 "At 3Psports, there are 14 measurements and that is relevant for the amateur market. But a more comprehensive analysis is the lab with ASMI, American Sports Medicine Institute. And that is where you bring guys in and it's like where you see sports science on ESPN. They have the athletes in there and they put markers on them. Based on those, they create images," Peterson said. 3Psports那套只是给普通人用的，骨骼精奇的新秀应该到ASMI的实验室去搞 "So when we have a lab in spring training, we get a guy in the bullpen at game speed and you have markers on him so the equipment will pick up angular measurements, linear measurements and rotational measurement. It's not video analysis, but you are getting true measurements of things like stride length, of external rotation, hip rotation velocities, the bend of knee at ball release. 在春训时会做一些分析 "There are 40-some measurements in this testing. When you get the results back, you literally have the MRI of the pitching delivery. Then you can pinpoint very specifically, is there a flaw, No. 1, and if there is a flaw or flaws, is it mechanical, medical or conditioning? It's literally like ESPN's sports science for pitching." 我们有40多种看透你的方法，然後来分析有什麽问题 I told you it would be a little complicated. 它其实有点复杂 Peterson will spend some time in spring training explaining this analysis and his programs and system to Orioles minor league coaches. He will also spend some time during the season traveling throughout the O's minors. But the analysis can and likely will also be used at the big league level. 春训时会向金鸟的小联盟教练们说明这整套东西， 球季间也会到小联盟去指导，但是时间大多会花在大联盟这边 "I met with (pitching coach) Rick (Adair) and Buck and everybody seems to be all on board with this. I came back and interviewed with Buck and Rick after I interviewed with Dan. We all thought that was important. The interview went great and I'm an Oriole," Peterson said. 我跟Dan碰过面後还见了Rick跟Buck，我们都认为这套工具很重要， 所以我变成一只金鸟了。 Don't get the thought that Peterson is looking to overhaul the mechanics of every pitcher on the staff. But he sounds like he's not afraid to recommend changes if the analysis indicates they should be made. I asked him if big league pitchers he has worked with before have been hesitant to put some of those adjustments into practice. 老皮不打算恶搞每一个投手 "Everybody asks that question and I have to honestly tell you, I haven't experienced that over my career. First of all, the one common thread just about every pitcher has is they want to be their best. Some guys adjust and why did they adjust? They were shown a better way," Peterson explained. 会来找他的都是想提升自己的 "Every pitcher that has ever had an arm problem wants to know, how can I avoid this? If there is something I can do to avoid that and possibly also increase my velocity? And the track record of this system increasing velocity and keeping guys healthy, it's right there. What will happen is guys will call some people that have been through the program and ask about this. With Twitter, they have probably done it already. 老皮: "上我的推特就知道大家都很满意了" "When I went to Milwaukee, some people asked me 'Rick, how are you going to sell this to big league guys?' We are not selling anything. I did a presentation to show them what this is about and how they can benefit. I've studied this my whole life and there is nothing I know that is better."

"这是我认为最好的方法了" John Axford was a pitcher on Peterson's Milwaukee staff that used biomechanical analysis to improve. When Peterson was the Brewers' pitching coach in 2010, Axford went 8-2 with a 2.48 ERA and 24 saves. Last year he went 2-2 with a 1.95 ERA and 46 saves. "Axford是我最近的成功例子" Click here to see a video of Peterson at a seminar talking about Axford. 这是Peterson在研讨会中谈论Axford的影片 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUYY1kYrR8g -- 其实GM Dan Duquette的堂兄弟Jim就是3Psports的成员 所以当初双方一拍即合应该很正常... 3Psports的成员还有老葛跟Al Leiter --
