A's, Beane won't make wholesale changes
Beane无意进行绿帽清仓大拍卖
THERE ARE a million Billy Beanes out there right now mapping out a major
rebuilding course for the Oakland A's. A few even work for newspapers.
现在大概有一百万个Billy Beane在安排绿帽重建计划,当中有几个还是记者。
This may surprise you, but most of the armchair Beanes are a lot bolder than
the main guy. The real Beane believes he has most of his future team in place,
and despite the depressing nine-game losing streak that finally ended
Wednesday you should not be counting on a major overhaul.
或许会让你感到惊讶,但许多假货Beane们比真货来得大胆许多。真实中的Beane认为
绿帽大部分的未来已经到位,即使球队到星期三才结束令人失望的九连败,仍没有理
由让球队进场大修。
Eric Chavez, as much as some fans clamor for his exodus, isn't going anywhere.
Neither is Bobby Crosby, unless someone in the system comes along to challenge
him.
Eric Chavez,即使某些球迷疾呼将他卖掉,但他哪里也不去。Crosby亦然,除非农场中
有人挺身挑战他的地位。
Mark Ellis is good for two more years before he's free-agent eligible.
The catching job is Kurt Suzuki's unless he shows he absolute can't handle it.
The one question mark is first base, and any day Daric Barton could become
the long-term fixture there
Ellis明年底FA资格取得 ,这两年多应该是名堪用的二垒手.
捕手的重任交给了Suzuki,除非他表现的荒腔走板让他不能胜任
关於一垒手的问题,总有一天Barton会上大联盟,且长期的站稳这个位子
Outfield? Two spots are set for at least the next five years in Nick Swisher
and Travis Buck. Will it really be that big of a challenge to fill that last
spot?
未来五年,外野三个位置中,Swisher跟Buck就预约了两个,要把剩下来的一个位置
补满会很难吗?
As Beane himself noted Tuesday, the bullpen needs very little reworking for
next year. Huston Street will soon return as the long-term closer, and the
A's are loaded with setup men for 2008 and beyond.
Beane自己在星期二提到,为了应付明年球季,牛棚需要的变动相当有限,Street仍是未
来终结者,而现在的绿帽有一票setup可以应付明年甚至往後的球季。
Moreover, the rotation is three-fifths in place for the extended future with
Dan Haren, Chad Gaudin and Joe Blanton.
此外,未来的先发轮值表内,前三号先发就落在Haren,Gaudin,Blanton身上了
So where's the alleged impending wholesale makeover to take place? Simple
answer: It's probably not. This is the roster Beane has built, and he's on the
hook for it, right down to the manager, for the foreseeable future.
所以传闻中的大拍卖即将到来吗?简单地说,或许不会。
绿帽阵容包括总教练在内,都是Beane亲手打造,在可预见的未来中,Beane仍会坚守着
它。
The biggest question is whether it can win, either short or long term, with
some of the usual Beane adjustments. Here are the 10 biggest issues
confronting the A's:
最大的问题是Beane做了些调整过後,这支球队能否赢球,不论是长期或短期而言。
这里有些自称是Beane的影舞者,这里有十项内容有关於运动家的长篇大论.
1. Rich Harden. After three consecutive seasons of being sidelined by injury
for extended periods, it's hard to see how the A's can realistically plot a
future around him anymore. It's a huge setback for Beane, who thought he had
his rotation ace until at least 2010. Now Oakland must consider turning the
page and building a rotation that can compete without Harden in the mix.
Harden.因为他的伤病被迫整季报销而没办法好好打完这三年来的完整球季,
如今看起来,这对运动家如何把他定位相当的伤脑筋.
Beane失算的一点,就是将他定位为一个王牌先发直到2010年底.
现在运动家应该仔细考虑以Harden为主的交易,
来建立起一个没有Harden的先发轮值.
2. Mark Kotsay. Can Beane find a taker for a heavy contract that runs through
next year considering the player's diminishing returns? If it's an absolute
that the A's must upgrade their offense, this is one obvious spot. His
defense not withstanding, Kotsay's lack of power and on-base are a huge
liability.
Kotsay.就所有情况而言,一名打者能低潮中反弹,
Beane能在明年找到一个类似的人给他一份合约吗?
假如该名打者能绝对提升运动家的打击,那也只是平淡无奇的
他的防守没有缺点,但Kotsay的长打力的缺乏跟低上垒率还是对球队一种伤害.
3. Esteban Loaiza. Another big contract with which the A's may be stuck.
How do you trade someone who hasn't pitched all year, and except for one
brief stretch a year ago, didn't impress many people when he was pitching?
Beane has to hope Loaiza can make it back in the second half and perform well
enough so that he has a window to move him in the offseason.
Loaiza.又是一个另运动家也许是感到伤害的大合约.
当他投球并不会让许多人印象深刻,但一年前签的合约,
感觉上像交易一个人,但他整季报销,你觉得怎样?
Beane希望Loaiza能够在下半季伤後复出,而且能够带领运动家开启季後赛的一扇窗
4. Bobby Crosby. It could be that the 2004 Rookie of the Year was overvalued.
He has so many holes in his swing, and he's not patient, either: 19 walks in
'07. He's been healthy this year, but the A's were expecting a lot more
maturation that simply hasn't occurred
Crosby.拿到04年的新人王有点高估他了.他的挥棒有如盲剑客,
而且他不等球,像今年只拿到19个保送.
今年他健康的出赛,但是运动家期待他有更多的好表现,而不是昙花一现.
5. Suzuki. Now that Jason Kendall is gone, we get to find out if Beane's
long-touted catching prospects can measure up at the major-league level.
Again, offensive potential is a large question mark.
Suzuiki.现在Kendall走了.我们找到一个假如Beane认为可以长期待在大联盟的捕手新秀
再一次,打击方面又是一个大问题了.
6. The DH slot. Mike Piazza was a Plan B for Frank Thomas that fizzled, and
it remains to be seen if Jack Cust is the long-term answer. If you need 30
homers and 100 RBIs out of this spot, probably not.
DH方面.Piazza是在没跟Thomas续约下的另一套方案,
剩下来的球季时间,看起来Cust是长期待在球队DH的答案.
假如你期待他能敲30只全垒打及100分打点,也许不可能.
7. Chavez.With him at 29, the days of developmental speculation are over.
What you see is what you get — a superior defensive third baseman with
decent power whose best offensive seasons are probably behind him. He can't
be the main man in the lineup, and even Beane must realize that now.
Chavez.他已经29岁了,他的潜能大概发挥的差不多了.
你在他身上所看到所得到的是一个在三垒防守方面相当优秀,
且有不错的长打攻击能力的好手.
他并不能在棒次排到中心打线,这一点Beane应该相当的清楚才对.
8. Dan Johnson. In a lineup where he could play a supporting role, he could
be a valuable asset. But the A's need even more offense from first base,
which is why Barton should be here soon.
Johnson.他在打线上有一定程度的帮助,他是名有价值的选手.
但是运动家需要在一垒方面能有更强悍的攻击,看起来Barton应该即将上来了.
9. The farm. Travis Buck has been a nice addition, and Santiago Casilla is
finally delivering on his long-held promise. But who else is coming besides
Barton? The system really needs to deliver more and better starting pitching.
Mike Madsen is on the fast track but just got to Triple-A. Dallas Braden
started the year in Double-A and already has his feet wet in the majors, but
it's too early to tell on him, either. Bottom line, is there another Tim
Hudson, Mark Mulder or Barry Zito coming? Again, jury out.
农场.Buck是好的收成品,Casilla也在牛棚中挣到一席之地.但在Barton之後哩?
这个农场需要去挖掘更多更好的先发投手.Madson已经升上了河喵队.
Braden在2A开始他的新球季,随时准备好登上大联盟,但是对他来说还太早了.
同样的,农场内会有新的三巨投产生吗?言之过早罢了.
10. The competition. In many ways, the Angels have had a nightmarish year but
are still comfortably ahead of the A's. Seattle, at least temporarily, is a
better club. Texas, since a low-water mark of 23-42, is 18-11. In short,
everybody's making strides but Oakland, and that's just in the West. Scary
prospect: Based on all of the above, it might not be a temporary development.
同区内的竞争.来看分区的其他队伍,天使的战绩另人感到害怕,
但对运动家而言还算安全距离.
水手最近的表现还不错,游骑兵在拿下23胜42败的烂成绩後,打出一波18胜11败的佳绩.
短期内,彼此间的胜差都不大.但是在西区.运动家还不急.
现在还没有急着拉新秀上来帮忙.
(有些翻的很不顺,请见谅 ^^ )
