Early exit marks start to offseason
Yankees ready for beginning of possible turnover
By Mark Feinsand / MLB.com

ANAHEIM -- The Yankees' roller-coaster season came to an end on Monday night,
bringing an offseason of change to an early start.
洋基雲霄飛車般的一季在星期一晚上畫下句點  提前引爆季後的變動

New York's charge for a 27th championship will have to wait until 2006, as
the Angels took out the Yankees in the first round for the second time in
four years.
就在天使隊四年內第二次把洋基隊在第一輪淘汰出局
而紐約隊要尋求第27次冠軍要等到2006了

The Yankees seem to experience turnover every season, and this year's team
will be no exception.
雖然每季洋基隊總要經歷一些交易 今年也不例外

Free agency doesn't begin until 15 days after the last out of the World
Series, but the Yankees will likely see significant turnover from the team
that won 95 games and an eighth consecutive American League East title.
球員自由交易要等世界大賽結束後15天開始 但對於本季取得95勝
連續八年奪得美聯東區冠軍的洋基隊來說 將可能有大動作

"It's frustrating that we didn't reach our final objective," said Randy
Johnson. "The offseason will probably be a lot longer than it otherwise
would have been, but it will be interesting to see what happens here."
Randy Johnson說
"我們沒有達成我們的終極目標 真令人沮喪 這個offseason可能非常漫長
但來看看這裡將發生的事情應該會非常有趣"

But before the Yankees embark on the task of bolstering their roster, they
must first figure out who will be making some of those decisions.
但在洋基隊著手補強他們的先發陣容之前 他們首先要考慮的是  誰來發號司令

General manager Brian Cashman's contract expires on Oct. 31, putting the
GM on the free-agent market. Cashman, who has held his position since 1998,
has given no indication whether he plans to return for a ninth year as
the team's GM.
總經理Brian Cashman合約到十月三十一日到期
也把這位GM放到自由市場交易中
從1998開始接掌總經理職務的現金人
對於是否會留下來擔任他第九年總經理職務 沒有任何表示

Whoever is calling the shots, they won't have to worry about the starting
pitching, as the Yankees can conceivably return seven starters from this
season.
不管誰接掌這個職務 他們都不用擔心先發投手
因為本季洋基隊已經陸續補到七位投手

Johnson, Mike Mussina, Chien-Ming Wang, Carl Pavano and Jaret Wright are
all under contract, while Shawn Chacon and Aaron Small are under the
Yankees' control as long as the club offers them arbitration. Kevin Brown,
a free agent, is not expected to return.
Johnson Mike Mussina 王建民 Carl Pavano 和Jaret Wright都有約在身
Shawn Chacon和Aaron Small洋基隊都有優先議約權
Kevin Brown是自由球員 但應該不會留下

The bullpen is sure to be an area of interest for New York, which will
feature Mariano Rivera in his 10th year as the closer.
牛棚當然是紐約隊關注的地方  Mariano Rivera將第十年擔任終結者

Tom Gordon, who has been the Yankees' primary setup man for the past two
seasons, is a free agent, and could be lured elsewhere to close for another
club. Tanyon Sturtze has a club option, while Scott Proctor remains under
the team's control.
Tom Gordon過去兩季擔任洋基隊主要setup man 現在是自由球員
別的球隊可能有興趣找他擔任終結者
Tanyon Sturtze 球隊有選擇權  Scott Proctor仍然和球隊有合約

Al Leiter, Alan Embree and Felix Rodriguez are all free agents, though none
are expected to be retained.
Al Leiter  Alan Embree 和 Felix Rodriguez是自由球員 但沒有一位期待被留下

One of the most enticing free agents on the market is Orioles left-hander
B.J. Ryan, who will surely receive several offers to close around the
Majors. The Yankees could make a charge for the southpaw, who would set up
Rivera, eventually taking over as the closer when Rivera retires.
自由球員市場最誘人的是金鶯隊的左投手B.J. Ryan
他是許多隊伍邀請的對象 洋基隊可以請他擔任Rivera之前的setup man
並等Rivera退休後接掌終結者的位置

The Yankees don't have many holes to fill in their starting lineup. Jason
Giambi, Robinson Cano, Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Jorge Posada all
return to their starting spots in the infield, while Gary Sheffield is back
for the final year of his three-year contract.
洋基隊在他們先發陣容並沒有很多洞要補
內野有Giambi Cano Jeter Rodriguez 和Posada 通通留下
Sheffield則留下執行他三年合約中的最後一年

Hideki Matsui is a free agent, though the left fielder is expected to remain
in the Bronx with a new three- or four-year contract.
松井是自由球員 但這位左打的外野手期望會被留在Bronx 簽一紙三或四年的合約

Bernie Williams is also a free agent, though his return is not a sure thing.
Williams, who has played 15 years in pinstripes, could come back on a
one-year contract as a role player, but his days as the team's starting
center fielder are likely a thing of the past.
Bernie Williams也是自由球員 但無法確定去留 他穿條紋衣效命洋基隊已經十五年
可能留下簽一年的合約 扮演role player 但他擔任先發中外野將很可能成為過去式

New York could pursue a new center fielder via trade, with Minnesota's
Torii Hunter and Florida's Juan Pierre as potential targets. Boston's Johnny
Damon and Washington's Preston Wilson are the two biggest center-field
names on the free-agent market.
紐約隊可能藉由交易補進中外野
明尼蘇達的Torii Hunter 佛羅里達的Juan Pierre都是可能目標
而波士頓的Johnny Damon和華盛頓的Preston Wilson 則是兩個自由市場中
最大支的中外野手

Tino Martinez has a club option, and could return or choose to retire.
Backup players John Flaherty and Ruben Sierra are free agents, though
both could return again on one-year contracts. Mark Bellhorn is
arbitration-eligible, while Bubba Crosby remains under club control.
Tony Womack, who has one year remaining on his deal, could be traded
this winter.
Tino Martinez有球隊選擇權 可能留下或選擇退休
候補選手John Flaherty和Ruben Sierra也是自由球員
兩位都可能留下簽一年合約
Mark Bellhorn有仲裁權  而Bubba Crosby則和球隊有約在身
Tony Womack剩下一年 今年冬天有可能被交易

Pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre's contract is also expired, and the
64-year-old is unlikely to return for an 11th year on Joe Torre's staff.
Torre may find himself looking for a new bench coach, too, as Joe Girardi
appears to be this year's hot managerial candidate.
投手教練Mel Stottlemyre合約也到期
但這位64歲的教練不傾向留下 第11年擔任Joe Torre的左右手
Torre也要幫他自己找一個新的bench coach
Joe Girardi顯然成為今年總教練的熱門候選人
