Yankees could save $15M with Burnett trade to Pirates

若將AJ交易到海盜隊，洋基(最多)可省下15M

http://0rz.tw/Iw151

According to multiple sources, the Yankees and Pirates are nearing a deal that
would send A.J. Burnett to the Pirates for two marginal prospects. Pittsburgh
would absorb $13 million to $15 million of the $33 million Burnett is owed this
season and next.

根據多方消息指出，洋基和海盜即將達成交易：AJ去海盜，洋基拿到兩隻雜魚，海盜幫忙
吃掉AJ未來兩年薪資(33M)的13-15M。

"It will happen this weekend," a person familiar with the deal predicted.
"Probably Saturday."

某熟知交易內情的人士透露：「交易在這周末就會完成，可能是星期六。」

The Pirates initially offered to pay $10 million, but the Yankees then demanded
a significant prospect if they were going to pick up $23 million for a pitcher
not on their team.

海盜隊本來提出10M的價碼。但洋基表示，在這個價碼下，自己就要為一位不在隊上的投手
付出23M，因此要求海盜另給一個具影響力的prospect。

Signed to a five-year deal worth $82.5 million after the 2008 season, Burnett
helped the Yankees win the World Series in 2009 when the right-hander went
13-9 with a 4.04 ERA in 33 games and won a World Series game.

AJ在2008年球季結束後和洋基簽下一紙82.5M的合約，並在2009年的33場先發中，投出13勝
9敗、4.04 ERA的成績。此外，還獲得一場世界大賽的勝投。

However, the 35-year-old struggled the past two seasons and the Yankees
targeted moving him after last year in order to trim payroll. In three Yankees
seasons, Burnett was 34-35 with a 4.79 ERA in 99 games (98) starts and averaged
194 2/3 innings a season.

然而，這位35歲的投手在前兩季表現差強人意，因此洋基去年就準備交易他，以便砍薪資。
AJ在洋基三季投了99場比賽，繳出34勝35敗、4.79 ERA的成績，每季平均投194 2/3局。

Because the Yankees have been shopping Burnett since early December, the
feeling in the organization is that it would be awkward for each side to have
him report Sunday and work out Monday, the first day of pitchers and catchers
in spring training at George M. Steinbrenner Field.

洋基從12月初就已經在尋求脫手AJ。如果還讓他禮拜天登錄，禮拜一參加Steinbrenner球
場的投捕春訓，球員球隊兩方似乎都會有些尷尬。
