Cards to keep Carpenter through 2011 Club locks in ace with five-year extension, option for 2012 By Matthew Leach / MLB.com LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- No team in baseball will sign a better pitcher at this week's Winter Meetings than the Cardinals signed on Monday. St. Louis announced a contract extension with ace Chris Carpenter that will keep the right-hander around through at least 2011. 在今年的冬季会议中, 没有一队签下比红雀更好的合约. 来自圣路易的队伍宣布与 Christ Carpenter延长合约, 保有这位王牌右投到至少2011年 Carpenter had been under contract through 2007, with a club option for 2008. The new deal guarantees all of his performance incentives in 2007, exercises his option for 2008 and secures 2009, 2010 and 2011 as well. The deal is reportedly worth $65 million in guarantees, and could go to $77 million if the 2012 option kicks in. "It's a nice feeling at any time when you have security in your job," Carpenter said. "Me and my family love it here. We've enjoyed the last three years, and we're looking forward to five more great years. It's a good feeling to know that you have people that believe in you that much to invest what they've invested in me to have me around." Carpenter与红雀先前的合约到2007为止, 球团保有2008年优先续约的权利. 新合约 将保证纳入所有2007年的奖励条款,自动执行2008的续约权,以及2009, 2010, 2011年 这个交易据报导价值六千五百万美金, 并且可能提高到七千七百万美金, 如果2012年 的优先续约权被执行. "这是一个很棒的感觉,当你知道你未来的工作获得保障" Carpenter 表示: "我和我的家人非常喜欢这边. 我们享受过去三年的时间, 而我们希望再 待在这里五年. 这是个很棒的感觉, 当你知道你被其他人所信赖, 并且在我的身上 投资许多, 希望能把我留在这边" Carpenter, 31, went 15-8 with a 3.09 ERA for St. Louis in 2006, finishing third in the Cy Young balloting. He won the award in 2005 after posting 21 wins. Over three years as a Cardinal, Carpenter is 51-18 with a 3.10 ERA, 13 complete games, seven shutouts and a strikeout-to-walk ratio of better than 4:1. He's a two-time All-Star who is 4-1 with a 2.53 ERA in eight career postseason starts. In a market that has gone on tilt for pitchers, Carpenter's signing actually may represent a relative bargain. Astros ace Roy Oswalt recently re-upped for five years and $73 million, while reports indicate that A's lefty Barry Zito may weigh six-year offers before the winter is out. Carpenter, 31岁, 2006年球季在红雀获得15胜8败, 防御率3.09, 并且在赛扬奖投票中 获得第三名的成绩. 他在2005以21胜赢得这个奖项. 在过去的三年, Carpenter在红雀섊获得51胜18败, 防御率3.10, 13场完投, 7场完封, 三振保送比达到 4比1. 他是两届的 权明星赛选手, 并且在季後赛八场出赛中获得4胜1败, 防御率2.53. 在这个偏好投手的 市场中, Carpenter的合约可视为一个相当划算的决定. 休士顿太空人的王牌投手 Roy Oswalt 才签下五年七千三百万的合约, 而来自运动家队的左投Berry Zito也很有可能 在这个冬天结束之前获得六年以上的合约. If Carpenter left money on the table, however, he's certainly not complaining. It's the second time that he's moved quickly to re-sign with the Cardinals. 如果把Carpenter的合约拿来比较, 很显然的, 他并没有对此感到抱怨. 这是他第二次 这麽快速的与红雀签下合约 "It's nice to know that they believe in me this much and believe that much to keep me around for five more years," he said. "It's a great feeling, and we're obviously excited to be able to be a part of the Cardinals organization for the next five years." "很高兴的知道球团相信我并且愿意把我再留住五年" Carpenter说到, "这感觉很棒, 我和 球团都於我能再成为红雀球团的一份子五年感到兴奋" St. Louis still hopes to add at least one more starting pitcher, but in the meantime, locking up Carpenter is plenty good news. 圣路易仍然希望再加入至少一名的先发投手, 但在此同时, 延长Carpenter的合约仍是 一个相当好的消息 "It's something we felt was very important to do," said general manager Walt Jocketty. "It's something we've talked about doing for some time. Once the season got over and things kind of settled down a little bit, I called Bob LaMonte, his agent. ... We got it done over the weekend. Great negotiations, very little problem at all. We're extremely happy." "我们感觉这件事情非常的重要" 球团总经理 Walt Jocketty表示, " 我们已经讨论这件事 一段时间, 我连络 Carpenter的经纪人 Bob LaMonte, 并且在周末完成这件事情. 协商过程 相当顺利, 几乎没什麽争议, 双方对此感到非常的高兴" Carpenter is now signed further into the future than any other Cardinal. Albert Pujols' seven-year deal runs through 2010 with an option for 2011, while Scott Rolen's eight-year contract ends after the 2010 season. Carpenter 现在成为红雀保有合约最长的球员. Albert Pujols 的七年合约将在2010年 到期, 并保有2011 年的优先续约权. 而Scott Rolen 的合约也是在2010球季後结束. -- 出国就是为了回国 入团就是为了脱团 (烟~) --
