Re: [新聞] Who's next for Yankees?

[AKgOd (Myth.EmPtY)]

※ 引述《gerkk (小懶熊的寶貝老公)》之銘言：
NEW YORK -- The next lineup card delivered to home plate by a Yankees manager
will not carry Joe Torre's looping signature at the bottom. The next decision
will determine who gets those honors.
With the Yankees and Torre parting ways, each side recognizing that the
67-year-old manager's contract will be allowed to expire on Oct. 31, a choice
must be made on who will provide the new face and voice of an organization
that has quickly shifted into transition.

下一季Torre將不會再帶領洋基 接下來就是看誰將接下這光榮的任務

洋基及Torre雙方都承認了這件事 這位67歲的教頭即將在10/31卸下他的任務

接著就看誰能帶領洋基趕快渡過這個過渡時期

"We have a challenge ahead of us to begin the process of looking for the best
person for that position, starting for the 2008 Yankees and beyond," general
manager Brian Cashman said. "Obviously, it's going to take some time and
effort."

"我們即將面臨一個挑戰 就是找尋最好(適合)的人選在2008年帶領洋基" 現金人說

很明顯地 這需要一些時間及努力

In the days following the Yankees' first-round elimination at the hands of
the Cleveland Indians, it was thought that the organization might not invite
Torre back at all, based upon owner George Steinbrenner's comments to the
Bergen (N.J.) Record criticizing Torre's inability to get past the American
League Division Series and his substantial $7.5 million salary for 2007.

老大Steinbrenner在先前的聲明裡就有說到他對Torre一年拿7.5m薪水卻贏不了ALDS的不爽

從這幾天輸給Indians之後 大家就大概知道Torre將不會再被續任了

While a scratch list of potential candidates circulated and was dissected for
speculation, few could have predicted that Torre would make the flight to
Tampa on Thursday, only to reject a performance-based contract worth a
minimum of $5 million and leave Legends Field, perhaps for the final time.

Cashman said the Yankees never entertained hiring a manager other than Torre
because "it would have been wrong to go beyond that issue," citing Torre's
continuing employment until the end of the month. But now the landscape will
need to change.

上一段在講Torre禮拜四拒絕了這份五百萬的新合約

現金人說 洋基從來就沒考慮過要把Torre換掉過...這可能是錯的

但洋基現階段的確需要改變

"I'll sit down with all parties involved and make recommendations to
ownership about compiling a list of file candidates," Cashman said. "There
may be some surprising names that show up of people expressing interest that
you wouldn't even think about. To be quite candid, we have not started a
process of looking for a new manager."

這段是說 現金人將跟洋基內部討論教練人選 但他們現階段還沒開始找新教練

With the field wide open to contenders, bench coach Don Mattingly is believed
to be a likely candidate. Through his spokesman, Ray Schulte, Mattingly said
that he wished to decline comment Thursday "out of respect to Joe Torre," but
that he would address his situation on Friday.

The 45-year-old Mattingly completed his first season as the Yankees' bench
coach in 2007, following three years as Torre's hitting coach.

45歲的Mattingly目前看來是最有可能的人選 他剛完成了他在洋基擔任板凳教練的第一年

在這之前他擔任了三年Torre的打擊教練

ALL-TIME WINNINGEST MANAGERS
1. Connie Mack 3,731
2. John McGraw 2,763
3. Tony La Russa 2,375
4. Bobby Cox 2,255
5. Sparky Anderson 2,194
6. Bucky Harris 2,157
7. Joe McCarthy 2,125
8. Joe Torre 2,067
9. Walter Alston 2,040
10. Leo Durocher 2,008

以上是最多勝教頭排名

A local favorite who was the premier first baseman of his era, Mattingly
enjoys a wealth of fan support at Yankee Stadium and a strong working
relationship with nearly all of the members of the clubhouse, including the
remaining veteran core who experienced the Yankees' last World Series title
in 2000 -- Derek Jeter and Andy Pettitte, plus free agents-to-be Jorge
Posada, Mariano Rivera and, to a lesser extent, Roger Clemens.

"We'll cross that bridge if it comes," Mattingly said Oct. 9, before Torre's
fate was final. "I think I've made it pretty clear, in some timetable, I
would like an opportunity to manage. But I'm not worried about the timetable.
I'm not worried about what happens to me at this time."

Mattingly在10/9說 我們將會渡過這座橋(指洋基會渡過這艱難時期)

Another likely candidate, former Yankees catcher Joe Girardi, trumps
Mattingly on the managerial experience card, having won the 2006 National
League Manager of the Year honors for piloting the Florida Marlins. A
broadcaster for the YES Network, Girardi has at least kept close proximity to
the Yankees, though he has repeatedly declined comment about the possibility
of replacing Torre.

另一個可能的人選是Joe Girardi,他的執教經驗更勝mattingly

他在2006年帶領馬林魚時拿下國聯最佳教練 但他仍在考慮當中

Chicago Cubs manager Lou Piniella is among those who will not be considered,
stating Thursday that he has no interest in the vacancy. But others -- like
dark horses Tony La Russa, Bobby Valentine and Trey Hillman -- may. The
Yankees' 2007 coaching staff also had two experienced former Major League
managers, Larry Bowa and Tony Pena, who could draw consideration.

Cubs的教練Lou Piniella跟Girardi一樣 也對這份工作沒興趣

但其他人 如Tony La Russa,Bobby Valentine.....等等等好多人都有在考慮

"There will be a process and I can promise you that process is going to take
some time," Cashman said. "I ask for everybody's patience as we review and
interview the individuals and make the appropriate recommendations to
ownership.

"... The decision will be made, but it's premature to discuss the criteria
right now. The only criteria I can touch on is what Hank and Hal
[Steinbrenner] have always spoken, which comes directly from The Boss. Our
intent is to continue on our quest for championships. We're very proud of
everything we've accomplished over the years."

上面都是現金人說這是一個必經的階段 但現在還不是成熟的時機去討論這些

我們對過去我們完成的成就感到驕傲

No matter who takes control of the Yankees in 2008, it will not be sTorre.
That may send ripples through the Yankees' in-house free-agent pool; Cashman
said the Yankees hope to re-sign all the "obvious" players, but those --
especially Posada and Rivera -- were the ones clamoring loudest for Torre's
return.

不管是誰在2008年帶領洋基 但將不會是Torre 這將會對即將成為自由球員的洋基選手

產生些許影響..現金人希望能再留住一些理所當然要留下的球員 如齁黑 ,Rivera等

但這些人都是當初最挺Torre的球員

"I don't feel good about it," Rivera said Oct. 10. "The kind of person that
Joe is, the kind of manager he is, how he has been working with the
organization, how he has helped us here, I don't see why they are even
thinking [about not retaining him]. I wish he's back, definitely. If you ask
me what I will want, I want him back."

Rivera在10/10時曾說過 "我對這感覺很不好 Torre是一個如此好的人 如此好的教練

他為洋基做了多少事 如何的幫助我們,我找不到任何理由去把他fire...我希望他能回來

如果你問我什麼是我想要的 我只想要他回來!!"   <==這句話有點肉麻

"Joe Torre is the best manager in baseball," Posada said Oct. 8. "It's not
his fault. He used the same lineup from April until now, the same guys. He
doesn't throw or hit or do anything on the field. He does everything possible
to keep us positive and get us to win."

齁黑在10/8時曾說過 "Torre是最好的棒球教練, 輸掉比賽不是他的錯...

他用一樣的選手陣容從四月打到現在 他做的一切都是為了帶領我們贏得勝利"

Cashman said that, at this early stage, there is little he can do to gauge
how Torre's departure will impact the Yankees' winter dealings.

"I can't represent to you what level of importance any of this plays into
their decision making process, but at the end of the day, we consider them
Yankees," Cashman said. "They will have an opportunity to remain part of the
Yankees. We hope that they do that."

現金人說 "我現在無法說出這個決定對我們來說重要性有多大..但是我們都是為了洋基好"

喔 終於翻完了 邊打MSN邊翻 翻的慢了一點真不好意思

紐約一點了 大家晚安 下台一鞠躬
