What will the Athletics rebuild look like?
By Melissa Lockard
The Oakland Athletics' rebuilding process took an inevitable step on Monday
when they dealt their ace Sonny Gray to the New York Yankees for three young
players. Now that the A's rebuild is in full swing, what might that process
look like and how long will it take for Oakland to be a contender once again?
交易掉Sonny Gray是绿衫重建不可避免的一步,而A's重建会是怎麽样子?要需要多久才能
开始竞争呢?
The A's have been flirting with a rebuild since the 2014 offseason, when they
traded Josh Donaldson, Jeff Samardzija, Derek Norris and Brandon Moss following
a wild-card loss to the Kansas City Royals. However, they didn't fully commit
to rebuilding. For every one of those trades, they made veteran additions
through free agent signings and low-profile deals, adding players such as Ben
Zobrist, Rich Hill, Matt Joyce, Yonder Alonso, Ryan Madson, Rajai Davis, Jed
Lowrie, Santiago Casilla, Trevor Plouffe, Adam Rosales and John Axford. Those
veterans weren't acquired to fill a long-term need for the team but instead
were meant to keep the A's somewhat competitive year after year. That approach
didn't net them many wins and prevented the A's from giving younger players a
meaningful look in the big leagues.
绿衫在2014年外卡输掉後,慢慢地开始考虑重建,在季後把队上大部分的明星球员交易出
去。不过,球团那时并没有决定要彻底的去坦,在2014年季後FO陆续地取得FA或别队的老
将。这些动作没有半个是长约的而是FO想在2015、16年来拚拚看。不过过程是很糟的。绿
衫并没有拿到很多胜利,这些老将也挡到农场年轻的小将在大联盟出赛的机会。
Things began to change for the A's in June. Rather than continue to lose with
a veteran-laden starting lineup, the A's decided to move forward with their
rebuild and give more playing time to their younger players. Veterans Plouffe,
Stephen Vogt and, most recently, Rosales were let go to allow Matt Chapman,
Bruce Maxwell and Chad Pinder, respectively, the opportunity to take over their
roles. Axford also was released. Madson and Sean Doolittle were traded, and,
of course, so was Gray. Over the next few months, the A's likely will continue
to replace the veterans in their lineup with younger players. If suitors can be
found past the non-waiver deadline for players like Lowrie, Alonso and Davis,
they also will be dealt. Even if those players aren't traded, the A's likely
will give their younger players most of the playing time when rosters expand
in September.
不过这个情况在今年的6月开始改变。绿衫开始清位置给年轻的球员。在未来的几个月球团
应该还是会继续把开位置给小将们,假如有机会在8月交易的话,Alonso,Lowrie,Rajai
一定会被交易掉,不然就是9月扩编的时候把他们位置给这些农场小将们打。
Going into the offseason, the A's roster turnover should continue. The A's
likely will explore trading Joyce, Santiago Casilla and other veterans (whether
there is a market for those players remains to be seen). In addition, the A's
will have a big decision to make about whether to hold onto — and possibly
extend — Khris Davis or use him as a chip to continue the rebuilding process.
在今年季後,球团应该还是继续老将群交易(不管市场价值如何)。此外,球团将会考虑延
长还是交易掉Khris Davis。
The end result should be an A's 25-man roster dominated by first-and second-
year players in 2018. There will be a few younger veterans on the roster such
as Marcus Semien, Kendall Graveman, Sean Manaea and Ryon Healy, but the vast
majority of the A's regular lineup will be at the beginning stages of their
big-league careers. With a group of prospects currently either getting their
feet wet in the big leagues or playing in Triple-A and Double-A, the A's hope
they will form the core of their next contending team. Oakland will use the
next two years to evaluate those players at the big-league level. Some will
find roles with the A's while others will fall back.
明年绿衫开季名单25人应该都是只有年资1年或2年的选手。可能Semien或者Healy等人会在
名单上,不过名单上大部份的rosters都会是刚开始他们大联盟生涯的菜鸟。现在在农场有
不少人都快从3A毕业,也有不少人要开始要从2A或3A起步的。绿衫球团希望这些菜鸟们可
以组成一个新一代的竞争核心。球团会利用接下来的两年衡量他们的价值,哪些会找到他
们在绿衫的位置哪些会被淘汰。
At the same time the A's are evaluating young players in the big leagues, they
also will look to add more talent to the lower levels of their minor league
system. The A's have had the sixth overall pick in each of the past two drafts
and had big bonus pools to spend because of that draft position. They will be
drafting, most likely, in the top 10 again next year. In addition, the A's
spent big during the 2016-2017 international free agent period. Their spending
put them in the penalty — limiting the A's to spend no more than $300,000 on
any international prospect for this year and next. But the hope is that the A's
netted several potential top prospects with the haul. Oakland will continue to
put a lot of resources into its scouting department to get the best possible
returns it can from its draft position, and will spend big on the international
market again, once the A's are out of the penalty phase.
除了衡量小将们在ML的价值之外,球团也会着重在选秀和IFA。明年我们也应该会有不错的
draft pick,而IFA虽然明年被罚款,不过只要惩罚过期(从2019-20年IFA)球团就会开始花
大钱。球团也会在球探部门增加更多资源,尽量能在市场上取得最好的新秀。
The A's goal will be to have a group of players with two to five years of
service time as the core of their big league roster when they are ready to
contend. The A's also will look to build up their farm system so that if that
core materializes, Oakland will have the resources to make trades to augment
the roster and make a push for a title. If that plan sounds familiar, it
should. It is the model that the Houston Astros and the Chicago Cubs most
recently used to get into title contention. It is also the plan the Chicago
White Sox and the Atlanta Braves are utilizing now. And, if you want to go way
back in history, it is similar to the approach the A's took in the mid-1980s
in building what would become their Bash Brothers dynasty, and in the mid-1990s
when building what would be the early 2000s teams.
球团的最终目标当要拚的时候就能有一个年轻的竞争团队。还有当竞争核心逐渐成形的时
候球团会持续地去增强他们农场,才能有东西去做交易让球队变得更强有能去去夺冠。假
如这个计画你觉得很耳熟的话,因为这正是小熊和空仔的组团模型。这也是亚特兰大勇士
和白袜现在再进行的计画。而绿衫在80年代、90年代中期、2000年初期也有类似的模式。
If all breaks right for the A's, their rebuilding process will end just as they
are opening a new ballpark in Oakland. A lot will have to go right for the A's
for the timing to work out that way, but it is a goal for the organization to
pursue. The most dangerous teams in baseball aren't necessarily the deep-
pocketed ones; they are the ones with young stars at the big-league level and
prospects other organizations covet. For the A's to be dangerous again, they
had to move out of the "one foot in/one foot out" approach to rebuilding that
they employed the past two seasons. Now that they are embracing the rebuild,
the A's can move forward with a clear direction.
假如一切顺利的话,在新球场开幕之时,重建会结束。
最危险的球队并不一定是你杯钱最撒最多的,而是充满年轻的球员和让人垂延三尺的新秀
的球队,这才是最危险的。
而运动家想要再一次的变得危险,就必须放弃过去两年边坦边竞争的重建方式。现在拥抱
了新的方针,绿衫会用更单纯更清楚的方式前进。
预测明年开季lineup:
1B Healy
2B Munoz
SS Semien
3B Chapman
RF Olson
CF Barreto
LF Pinder
C Maxwell
DH Khris
P Manaea
现在在3A已经很成熟的Nunez和Wendle不知道球团规划是怎样
