标题[消息] Aramis Ramirez Exercises Option To Remain With Brewers

Aramis Ramirez has exercised his side of his $14MM mutual option with the
Brewers and will return to the club in 2015, the Brewers announced via their
Twitter feed. Milwaukee exercised its end of the option on Friday. Ramirez
is represented by Paul Kinzer.
Ramirez said in September that he was keeping his options open, though he
preferred to return to Milwaukee and wasn’t sure if he wanted to play beyond
the 2015 season. Exercising this option checks off both boxes for the
36-year-old slugger, though as MLBTR’s Tim Dierkes noted in Ramirez’s Free
Agent Profile, it’s very rare for a team and player to both agree on a
mutual option, let alone one worth as much as $14MM. Dierkes projected
Ramirez to find a two-year deal worth between $26-$30MM (depending on if
Ramirez had a qualifying offer attached to him or not) this winter.MLB:

“He is comfortable in Milwaukee, and obviously Aramis has made a lot of
money in his career and he has invested wisely and is in very good shape
(financially),” Kinzer tells Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal
Sentinel. “He told me he wants to control his own destiny. He’ll decide
after next year if he wants to keep playing.
“If he signed a two- or three-year deal (with another club) now, he’d feel
obligated to fulfill that contract. This is his choice. He’s happy in
Milwaukee and if he puts up the numbers and wants to play another year, it’s
his decision and nobody else’s. He said he’ll sit down with his family at
the end of next year and decide if he wants to play more. It was an easy
decision for him.”
Ramirez hit .285/.330/.427 with 15 homers and a 109 wRC+ over 531 plate
appearances in 2014. While still a productive bat, there were a few red
flags around Ramirez’s performance — he hasn’t posted a lower slugging
percentage since the 2002 season, a lower walk rate since 2000, and his .142
ISO was a career-low over a full season. If Ramirez’s decline gets sharper,
the Brewers may have dodged a bullet by only having the veteran under
contract through next season. Milwaukee’s corner infield situation for 2015
has become much clearer with Ramirez returning at third and the
newly-acquired Adam Lind getting much of the time at first base, though Lind
will need a platoon partner to face left-handed pitching.
Dierkes ranked Ramirez as the 19th-best free agent of the 2014-15 offseason,
and the fairly sparse third base market gets even thinner with Ramirez off
the board. This further strengthens Pablo Sandoval and Chase Headley‘s
chances of finding big contracts as the best available 3B options, though
Hanley Ramirez could also still explore signing as a third baseman.
是上周的消息。
在今年有数位不错的三游好手投入FA市场的情况下,
拉米已经宣布会动用合约的选择权来留在球队,
14M的薪水应该是明年最高薪的球员。
拉米主要是下半季最後一个多月打得很差,
看到他上去挥棒几乎也没什麽威胁但却是当四棒...
希望新打教Darnell Coles对他有所帮助。
