标题Why not Randy?

这段内容是上篇原文的後段 也加减翻了一下
看完之後觉得 或许没签到巨怪 算是响尾蛇赚到了吧
=============================================================================
Why not Randy?
若Garland能拿到至少$7.25 million的保证约,为何响尾蛇不更积极留住自由球员
Randy Johnson呢?
响尾蛇在十一月时开给Johnson的一年期合约,据信价码落在$2.5 million到$3
million之间。最後他与老人队在十二月达成一年$8 million的协议,包含$5 million
的激励奖金。
响尾蛇队的财务状况从十一月起已有了改变。由於不提供Adam Dunn仲裁,Byrnes认为
即将来临的选秀可以编列较少的预算,如此可以有更多的钱加码响尾蛇队的payroll。
Byrnes从媒体的风声预料,Johnson的经纪人可能会先与老人队进行协议,因此他早已
要求与Johnson面对面会谈,解释off-season的局面也许需要较长的决策过程,才有可
能达成协议。
但是,Byrnes提到:『我们了解球员进入自由市场後会带来的风险。』
『Randy尽了所有的努力想要与响尾蛇重新签约,提出的价码在自由市场里甚至远低於
他的价值。』 身为Johnson经纪人之一的Barry Meister如是说。『响尾蛇完全知道当
时该做些什麽,也有相当长的时间可享有独家议约权签下Johnson。巨怪重申他热爱在
响尾蛇队的时光,并希望队友们都过的都很好。』
Gordon close?
响尾蛇队接近签下自由市场的後援投手Tom Gordon。
『我们已经展开几次会谈,谈得差不多了。』Gordon的经纪人Rick Thurman如是说,
并未详加说明会谈内容。
Gordon,41岁,在前两季肩膀和手肘受伤前,是棒球界不错的後援投手之一。
1998年到2006年间,他在488 2/3的投球局数里累积了2.97的自责分率,2008年的34场
出赛里,自责分率则是5.16。

Why not Randy?
With Garland guaranteed at least $7.25 million, it begs the question of why
the Diamondbacks didn't make a more aggressive play on free agent Randy
Johnson.
The Diamondbacks are believed to have offered Johnson a one-year deal worth
between $2.5 million and $3 million in November; he signed a one-year, $8
million deal, which includes another $5 million in bonuses, with the Giants
in December.
Byrnes said the club's finances have changed since November. Essentially,
Byrnes said less money is being budgeted for the upcoming draft, partially
because free agent Adam Dunn wasn't offered arbitration, making more money
available for the major-league payroll.
Byrnes said he expected advance notice from Johnson's agents on the deal
with the Giants, which he learned about through the media, and had requested
a face-to-face meeting with Johnson to explain the "the scenarios of the
off-season that might involve a longer process toward maybe a deal."
But, Byrnes said, "We understand the risk when a player goes to free agency."
"Randy made every effort to re-sign with the Diamondbacks at a price
significantly below his value in free agency," said Barry Meister, one of
Johnson's agents. "The Diamondbacks knew at the time exactly what that was,
and the Diamondbacks had a significant amount of time in which they had the
exclusive rights to sign Randy. He reiterates that he loved his time with
the Diamondbacks and wishes them well."
Gordon close?
The Diamondbacks appear to be closing in on a deal for free-agent reliever
Tom Gordon.
"We've had a number of conversations, and we're getting close," said Rick
Thurman, Gordon's agent, without elaborating.
Gordon, 41, was one of the better relievers in baseball before suffering
shoulder and elbow injuries the past two seasons.
From 1998 to 2006, he posted a cumulative 2.97 ERA in 488 2/3 innings. He
had a 5.16 ERA in 34 games in 2008.
