[翻譯] Amaro答客問

[ht874211 ()]

ESPN.com的Jayson Stark訪問Amaro，請教目前球迷最關心的三個問題：
http://ppt.cc/68N-

1.關於黑魔使的續約問題：
"Our value [assessment] on Cole hasn't changed. We've always thought he's a
valuable player. He's one of the better left-handers in the game. … And we
still want to sign him. He's a priority, no question. But the biggest thing
is all the other decisions we have to make, with the other potential free
agents we have coming up -- at third base [Placido Polanco), in center field
(Shane Victorino], and at right field [Hunter Pence] and catcher [Ruiz] in
two years. And we haven't solved our left-field situation, either. We've got
all those things to deal with. So we have to be deliberate. We have to make
sure we take our time. It's not just one decision. … We have to think about
all those decisions, and how all the pieces fit together."

「我們對於黑魔使的價值評估從未改變。我們認為他是一位有價值的球員與最好的左投之
一......簽下他毫無疑問的仍是我們的主要考量。但更重要的我們在季後還有很多決定要
做、要考量簽下那些自由球員，未來兩年包括三壘(Polanco)、中外野(笑彌陀)、右外野
(Pence)、捕手(乳液)都要陸續做出續約與否的決定，我們必須考量所有的條件與狀況，
所以我們必須深思熟慮，考量各種選擇的後果與支付的代價來做最後決定。」

2.關於是否要與乳液簽長約：
"It's all part of the master plan. It's all part of the many decisions we
have to make. We can't have 10 players who make $15 million above. We can't
do it. We've got to pick and choose. We love Chooch. But he's also an older
player (33), and he's playing a very demanding position. So he's another case
where we have to take our time and make that decision when the time comes."
(The Phillies hold a $5 million club option for next year on Ruiz, who then
would reach free agency on the verge of his age-35 season.)

「這是我們要做的眾多決定中的其中一個。我們無法負擔同時有十位球員超過15M的薪資，
所以我們會仔細選擇簽約的對象。我們愛丘歧，但他同時是一位年屆33歲的老球員，而捕
手的位置又是球隊十分需要的位置。所以我們會等到時間到時，考量狀況再做決定。」
(應該會執行乳液明年的選擇權，再看明年狀況再做決定)

3.是否有可能在本季成為賣家(原文：On the likelihood he'd pull the plug and sell)
"We've got a lot of baseball left to play. We'd have to fall out of
contention pretty significantly, and I don't see us doing that. We've still
got two of the best left-handers in baseball [Hamels and Cliff Lee] in our
rotation. I actually like our bullpen a lot, contrary to popular [wisdom]. …
 We're getting [Halladay] back, and we'll get him back before the deadline,
which is great. We'll get [Ryan] Howard and [Chase] Utley back at some point.
So if we keep hanging around, which I fully expect to do, that's three pretty
good trades to make. That's the way I'm looking at it."

「我們還有很多比賽要打。我們唯有在非常顯著不足以繼續競爭的情況下才有可能會當賣
家，而我不認為我們會出現這種情形。」「我們仍有兩位優秀左投(小李、黑魔使)在我們
的輪值。跟一般大眾認知相反，我很喜歡我們目前的牛棚陣容。Doc會在交易截止日前返
回陣中，追追跟猴兒會在未來某個時間點回到隊上。因此，只要我們還能保持競爭力，
這點我非常肯定我們做得到，就等於已經做出了三個出色的交易(應指三位傷兵的歸陣)。
以上是我對此議題的看法。」

另外日前謠傳我們有對推土機提出Offer，Amaro否認有這回事。(因此豪華稅門檻應該不
會輕易突破)
