http://ppt.cc/WP5U Yu Darvish signing: Deal paying dividends for Rangers http://imgur.com/rmTag7z The Rangers' signing of Yu Darvish in 2012 looks like a monumental steal in retrospect. 现在回头看看当初2012年，游骑兵签下达尔的合约，就是大抢劫来形容。 For the second time in as many years, Yu Darvish narrowly missed a perfect game. Friday night, Darvish came just one out away from clinching his first career no-hitter, before David Ortiz beat the shift with a single to right. While the performance had been asterisked by some due to a controversial error call in the seventh, Darvish was still nothing short of dominant, as he struck out 12 and walked two in 8 and 2/3 innings pitched. The night exemplified what has been a phenomenal start to the Japanese native's big league career. 达尔第二次又再次跟无安打比赛擦身而过，即使这场比赛对於第7局的以失误或安打纪录 有争议，但丝毫不减达尔的宰制，这一晚就是一个见证。 When the Texas Rangers signed Darvish to a six-year, $60 million contract* (plus a $51.7 million posting fee) in January of 2012, few imagined that he would become one of the best pitchers in the game right out of the gate. *The sixth year (worth $11 million) can become a player option if Darvish reaches certain Cy Young voting thresholds. With a top-two finish already in the bag, he has a strong shot at obtaining the option. 当2012年游骑兵签下达尔6年/60M合约的时候(51.7M入札金)，少数人预见他会成为 他会成为地表上最强投手之一。 *第六年的合约(年薪11M)，如果达尔成就赛扬奖一些条件将可以跳脱合约， 目前已达成一项票选前2名，现在看来有很大机率可以跳脱。 Darvish' impact was immediate on the Rangers, as his 2012 season was strong enough to earn him a third place finish in the AL Rookie of the Year award balloting (second in the non-Mike Trout division). In just over 191 inni pitched, the right-hander posted a 4.9 WAR, 16-9 record, 3.90 ERA (112 ERA+), 3.29 FIP (75 FIP-), 4.2 BB/9, and 10.4 K/9 en route to his first big league All-Star appearance. His 221 strikeouts ranked 5th in the AL, while his WAR was second among all rookies. 对游骑兵的冲击是立即性的，2012年足够可以得到美联新人第3名(如果扣掉Mike Trout 可以说是第二名)。191局 4.9WAR,16-9,3.90ERA,(112 ERA+),3.29 FIP (75 FIP-), 4.2 BB/9, 10.4 K/9，还有第一年的明星赛。221K 为美联第五，WAR是联盟菜鸟第二高。 He followed up his strong freshman performance with an even better sophomore campaign, in which he emerged as quite possibly the most dominant pitcher in the American League. In 209.2 innings, Darvish tallied a 2.83 ERA (145 ERA+) and 3.28 FIP (78 FIP-). He improved both his walk and strikeout rates, decreasing from 4.2 to 3.4 BB/9 and increasing from 10.4 to 11.9 K/9. His 277 strikeouts were the best in baseball, and if it weren't for Max Sherzer, Darvish may have won the AL Cy Young award, as he was a runaway second with 93 vote points. http://cdn2.vox-cdn.com/imported_assets/2192929/i3SXAH4AAxtWS_medium.gif 五颗魔球动图 第二年的强势表现更为出色，瞬间挤进最有宰制力的投手名册。 209.2局 2.83 ERA (145 ERA+) 3.28 FIP (78 FIP-) BB/9 4.2变成3.4, K/9 由10.4 变成11.9 277K 联盟K王 ，如果没有Max Sherzer，应可赢得赛扬奖。 So far this year, Darvish has picked up right where he left off despite a neck injury that caused him to miss the first week of the season. In seven starts this year, Darvish has thrown 46.1 innings with a 2.33 ERA (178 ERA+) and 2.56 FIP (64 FIP-). While his strikeout rate has regressed slightly to 10.5 K/9, his walk rate has taken another step forward, as he is now walking just 2.5 per nine. 今年目前表现，尽管季初脖子僵硬让他比较晚开季，46.1局 2.33ERA (178 ERA+) 2.56FIP (64 FIP-)，K/9值稍降10.5,BB/9也降至2.5。 course is Darvish's forte. Earlier this season, Darvish managed to become the quickest player to reach 500 career strikeouts in terms of innings, besting the prior record held by Kerry Wood, who just so happens to own the second best career strikeout rate in major league history. Darvish is now up to 552 strikeouts in 447.1 innings. Were he eligible, his career 11.1 K/9 would be the best ever, ahead of the current leader, Randy Johnson (10.6). In fact, since his rookie season, Darvish has the most strikeouts in baseball, and is one of just two (Max Sherzer being the other) to surpass 500. 达尔也努力发挥所长，本季初立刻成为史上最速500K的投手， 目前447.1局投了552K，生涯K/9=11.1 也是史上最佳。 Randy Johnson 生涯是10.6 *(维持生涯长时间10.9真的超强) 自2012年以来是最多K的投手，也是唯二超过500K的。 *(达尔跟Max Sherzer) Of course, Darvish's biggest flaw is his tendency to allow runners to reach base via the walk. Since his debut, Darvish's 3.7 BB/9 is the 11th highest mark in baseball, and his total of 182 walks is 5th. However, Darvish seems to have made significant improvements in the area. As previously alluded to, Darvish's walk rate has declined in each of the past three years, from 4.2 to 3.4 to 2.5 this season. If he can continue this progression, Darvish could wind up with one of the best K/BB ratios in all of baseball factoring in his outrageous strikeout numbers. The fact that Darvish may not be fully developed is scary in itself. 达尔最大的缺点就是保送问题，自他踏入大联盟以来，平均3.7 BB/9是联盟第11高， 总计182保送是第五名。然而今年似乎有了改善，连续三年降低BB/9(4.2 -> 3.4 ->2.5) 如果能继续维持再配上超强的三振能力，真的会成为一个很可怕的投手。 For the Rangers, Darvish's contract has been a flat out steal. Under the assumption that one WAR is equivalent to roughly $6 million on the open market, Darvish's performance has far exceeded the value of his contract. 对於游骑兵而言，达尔的合约就是一个强劫。 以市场上1个WAR=600万镁的价钱换算，达尔的价值已远超他的合约。 Year Age Salary WAR (Fangraphs) Actual Worth 年度 年龄 年薪 WAR 价值 2012 25 $9,500,000 4.9 $29,400,000 2013 26 $10,000,000 5.0 $30,000,000 2014 27 $10,000,000 1.6 (incomplete) $9,600,000 2012:2940万镁 2013:3000万镁 2014:目前7场达960万镁 Even factoring in his posting fee (which brings the total tally to $111.7 million), the Rangers still come out way ahead, as he has already been worth well more than half that total ($69 million), and Texas still has him under contract through 2017 (assuming sixth year is still intact). If Darvish maintains his performance over the life of the contract, the potential excess value for the Rangers could be enormous. 即使将入札金列入(111.7M)，现在才第三年开始，目前投出总价值69M已超过他6年总合约 60M的薪水，而条子与他合约还会到2017年，未来若继续维持高档表现的话，对於球队 潜在的价值将是极为庞大。 Darvish has given the Rangers a reliable, dominant ace, something that they really haven't had (excluding the half season of Cliff Lee) since the days of Kevin Brown and Nolan Ryan in the early 1990's. For Rangers fans, he's a true boon. 对於游骑兵而言，他们是得到可信赖、主宰比赛的ACE，自1990年代的Kevin Brown and Nolan Ryan以来，球队从未得到过的(如果不列入投半季的Cliff Lee)。 他对他们来说是个福音。 -- ★生涯68场大联盟先发: 8K以上场次有38场。 其中53场自责分在3分以下 ; 13场0失分 ★前天对红袜之战 目前MLB生涯第一次拿12K 15K:1场 14K:4场 11K:8场 10K:7场 目前还缺一场13K ★MLB生涯仅被敲一安比赛:4场 2012:跨联盟对太空人 2013:太空人 2014:太空人,红袜 --
