5 Deadline deals that make sense

內文：

By Jim Duquette / MLB.com | 6:10 PM ET

For a period there, a silly thought popped in the heads of some. With so few
deals being done, a slew of you pictured a summer without significant player
traffic.

起頭文，沒啥重點。

But then the Astros opened the Trade Deadline doors with a deal for Scott
Kazmir. And before you fully processed that one, Aramis Ramirez was on his
way to Pittsburgh. Then Johnny Cueto to the Royals happened. Congrats, Kansas
City. You got yourselves an ace.

Kazmir的交易開啟了交易大限的門。談到了前陣子的幾個交易，並給予祝福。

Think the wheeling and dealing is complete? Nope. In fact, the fun may have
just begun. We could see a few more studs exchanged in the next few days. The
following five moves would make sense, so don't be surprised if they go down
as described below.

這段是鋪陳作者下面這些動作發生的話不要意外。

1. Cole Hamels to the Dodgers

Looking back to Spring Training, I suggested that the Phillies and Dodgers
could be fits for a deal involving Hamels. And through this point in the
campaign, nothing has happened to change my mind on that front.

In fact, the suggestion would seem to make even more sense now in light of
Los Angeles' rotation injury woes. Hyun-Jin Ryu and Brandon McCarthy are out
for the year, and health questions will always surround the talented but
oft-sidelined Brett Anderson.

作者說春訓時就有建議過了，並提到了道奇目前先發輪值受到了傷勢所困，Hyun-Jin Ryu
跟Brandon McCarthy今年都不會回來了，而且健康問題還是圍繞在 Brett Anderson。

As his season-to-date 3.64 ERA suggests, Hamels is not the favorite for the
2015 National League Cy Young Award. He has, however, displayed brilliance at
times.

Hamels ERA: 3.64，雖然不是賽揚的熱門人選，但仍然投的很讚。

Need proof? Take a look at what Hamels did in his most recent start.

The prospect of acquiring Hamels is an even more appealing fantasy to
franchises seeking more than a summer's rental, as the left-hander could be
under control through 2019.

What it would take: The Dodgers have called top prospects Corey Seager and
Julio Urias untouchable, but one of the two would need to be included to
complete this deal.

作者提到Hamel不是只是今年過水而已，可以控制到2019，不過道奇早就提到，
他們的頂級潛力新秀Corey Seager跟Julio Urias不可能當籌碼，不過這交易仍然可能
會發生。

2. Carlos Gomez to the Angels

How about those Angels? Hot since early May, they might just be the American
League's most well-rounded squad. Still, the club could stand to improve its
left-field production, which has sagged for most of the season.

作者提及天使表現得很火熱，球團希望能加深左外野深度，這個困擾整季的問題。

Enter the electric Gomez, the owner of an impressive power-speed display. And
having also played Gold Glove-caliber defense in center, the 29-year-old
would likely shift over to left to help form one of baseball's most dazzling
outfield units. The Angels traded for Shane Victorino on Monday night, but he
didn't cost much (Josh Rutledge) and is more there for depth. Gomez would
take the club to a new level.

Carlos Gomez有棒子有速度，還曾是中外野金手套，29歲的他可以適任在球場上外野困難
的位置之一，天使已經交易到了Shane Victorino，但代價不會對球團耗費太多(Josh
Rutledge)，而且這筆交易加深了外野深度，Gomez的加入可以讓球團提升到新的檔次。

What it would take: If that did not sell you on Gomez, then also consider his
team-friendly $9 million salary for 2016. For a team such as the Halos -- who
reportedly prefer longer-term assets to summer rentals -- Gomez would seem to
be an attractive target.

這邊作者提到了Gomez的風險，包含2016的9M，不過如果考量到天使這種喜歡長期價值的
球隊來看，Gomez是個吸引人的人選。

‧ Rumor roundup: Varied market for Gomez emerging

But since the Brewers also know what they have in Gomez, the asking price
would not be cheap. Think the club's No. 1 prospect, left-hander Sean Newcomb.

不過同樣的，釀酒人也知道Gomez的價值在哪，所以要索取他的代價不會太便宜，想的是
天使球團第一的潛力新秀，左投的Sean Newcomb。

3. Aroldis Chapman to the Nationals

The Nationals have had a solid bullpen for much of the season, albeit one
that looks much different than the 2014 version. If you remember,
Washington's 2014 relief corps included three arms -- Drew Storen, Rafael
Soriano and Tyler Clippard -- with 30-save seasons on their resumes.

國民整季有很好的牛棚，比去年還要棒，可以回想一下國民2014的牛棚三本柱：
Drew Storen, Rafael Soriano 跟 Tyler Clippard都有每季30次以上救援成功的本事。

But fast forward to the current group, led by Storen yet filled out with
less-proven names. It has 12 blown saves on the season; not an outrageous
figure, but on the top half of a leaderboard that a World Series-aspiring
club would care to avoid.

不過目前來看，國民隊有12次救援失敗，並不是個很好的跡象，這是要挑戰世界大賽
的隊伍應該要擔心跟避免的地方。

Not short on starters with strikeout ability, the Nats would reach a new
level by acquiring the Reds' fireballing fireman and current destroyer of the
Statcast™ leaderboard page.


What it would take: Due to Chapman's triple-digit talent and longer-term
controllability -- he's not eligible for free agency until 2017 -- the
left-handed Cuban would require an acquiring club to accept a real prospect
hit.

考量到Chapman的才能跟長期的控制性，他在2017年前都不是自由球員，若要取得他要有
個頂尖的潛力新秀。

If this deal were to get done, don't be surprised to see either A.J. Cole
(the Nationals' No. 2 prospect) or Reynaldo Lopez (No. 5) on his way to
Cincinnati.

如果真要成真，A.J. Cole(國民No. 2 潛力新秀) or Reynaldo Lopez (No. 5)都要被
交易到紅人。

4. Gerardo Parra to the Cubs

The Cubs have done well to stockpile young talent, and team leadership has
shown no desire to mortgage the future for the present. With that said,
Milwaukee's Parra could give Chicago's North Side club a boost on offense and
defense for a reasonable cost.

小熊潛力新秀多到滿出來，所以團隊目前是針對目前而不是未來。因此，釀酒人的
Parra可以加深攻擊火力跟防守，代價也相對合理。

With a Gold Glove Award in left field as well as right, Parra has long been
recognized for his defensive prowess. In fact, he has the ability to track to
fly balls from all three outfield spots.

曾拿過左外野金手套的Parra被為人知的便是他的防守，他有能力擔任外野的三個位置。

But Parra's reputation as a glove-first guy notwithstanding, the left-handed
batter is in the midst of a career offensive year. The type of player loved
by Cubs manager Joe Maddon, Parra is quite adept against right-handed
pitching. With the benefit of this strength, he could serve as solid outfield
depth and, perhaps, the strong side of a center-field platoon with Dexter
Fowler, a switch-hitter who has fared much better from the right side in his
career.

雖然他金手套的名聲遠近皆知．不過他也在職業生涯的高點。這種球員最被Joe Maddon
所喜愛，Parra能對抗左投手，有著這樣的優勢，他能協助外野的工作跟深度，跟Dexter
Fowler輪流platoon中外野，因為他職業長期還是比較適合右打。

What it would take: Parra would cost more on today's trade market than he did
last summer, when he was acquired by Milwaukee from Arizona in exchange for
two low-level prospects. But the increased price tag could still be palatable
for the Cubs, who have a deeper prospect well than most. I would not be
surprised to see a Parra trade that included some combination of farmhands
Jake Stinnett -- the team's 10th-best prospect, per MLBPipeline.com -- Carson
Sands (11th) or Justin Steele (14th).

Parra的代價會比去年還要高，當他從響尾蛇交易到釀酒人，是以兩位低階的潛力交換
到，不過這兩季中間成長得差價是小熊可以負擔的，因為小熊農場深度更深！作者認為
小熊以Jake Stinnett(團隊的10th潛力)、Carson Sands (11th) 或 Justin Steele(14th)
並不會感到意外。

5. Mike Fiers, Francisco Rodriguez to the Blue Jays

The Blue Jays have been one of the most aggressive teams in terms of trying
to make a move at the Deadline, but so far, they have come up empty. Last
winter, GM Alex Anthopoulous made a below-the-radar deal for starter Marco
Estrada that has worked well for them, as Estrada has helped fill a big gap
in the rotation, pitching to a 3.55 ERA.

藍鳥是今年有競爭力的球隊之一，希望在交易大限前有更多的動作，但到目前為止，
他們仍然是靜悄悄。去年冬天，GM Alex Anthopoulous做了個不起眼的交易，Marco
Estrada到目前表現得很好，也填補了藍鳥的先發的洞，ERA 3.55。

Instead of making a "splash," Anthopoulous would be well served to make a
similar kind of deal for Fiers and K-Rod.

Anthopoulous很希望有像Fiers and K-Rod的交易發生。

What it would take: A package leading with lefty Daniel Norris would be
enough, and the Brewers would benefit from the fact that Fiers is under
control for four more years after this one and Rodriguez for another season.
Fiers is homer-prone, but he is whiffing a man per inning, and K-Rod has
continued to be remarkably reliable.

交易的代價大概是左投的Daniel Norris就夠了，釀酒人可以在受惠於Fiers還可控制的四
年，跟K-Rod的下個球季。Fiers容易被尻全壘打，不過他很能吃局數，K-Rod則是個很好
的救援投手。
