Closer Joe Nathan MINNESOTA TWINS Age: 33 2008 salary: $6 million Key stat: 160 saves over last four seasons. The skinny: He's been one of the most reliable closers in baseball over the last few seasons, but he'll likely be following Johan Santana out the foor. Either as a free agent following the 2008 season, or in a trade sometime before the July 31 deadline 壹报导：他过去几年是大联盟里面最能够依靠的後援投手之一，但他很可能 会追随Santana的脚步离开这里。有可能会08年球季结束後成为FA离开Minnesota 或者是在七月底交易截止日前被交易出去。 Francisco Rodriguez LOS ANGELES ANGELS OF ANAHEIM Age: 26 2007 salary: $10 million Key stat: 132 saves over last three seasons. The skinny: Rodriguez lost his arbitration case and was "stuck" with a $10 million deal. If he has another great season, he's going to get paid off big time in the offseason, either by the Angels or someone else. Think something in the range of four years, $48 million. 壹报导：Rodriguez在仲裁官司中吃了败仗并且"仅仅"拿到了10m的薪水。 如果他又能有一个不错的球季，他在今年球季结束後可以拿到一张可观 的合约，不论是Angels或者其他球队。大概会是一张4年4800m左右的合约。 Brian Fuentes COLORADO ROCKIES Age: 32 2008 salary: $5.05 million Key stat: 81 saves over last three seasons. The skinny: A former 25th round draft pick, this side-winding left-hander became a threat as a closer in Denver. He lost his position due to some struggles in 2007, but could command some attention with a solid rebound in 2008, even if as a situational lefty. 壹报导：选秀第25轮才被挑到的家伙，这位以前的一人左成为了Denver最具有 威胁性的投手。他在经历过07年一些状况之後失去些许他该有的水准，但一般认为 以他实力在08年会出现反弹，即便是他是一个有些许状况的左撇子。 Brad Lidge PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES Age: 31 2008 salary: $6.35 million Key stat: 66 games pitched in 2007 was his lowest total since 2002. The skinny: Once an All-Star, Lidge seemed to lose confidence after giving up a monstrous home run to Albert Pujols in the 2005 NLCS, a series his Astros won. The Phillies are banking on him regaining his form as they moved former closer Brett Myers to the rotation. 壹报导：过去的全明星，自从在05年的NLCS被Pujols打出了那只石破天惊的全垒打 之後似乎失去了该有的信心，虽然最後Astros还是赢得这系列战。Phillies认为他 能够找回他过去的身手所以把他找了过来，并且把前任closer Myers移出了他们的 名单当中。 Kerry Wood CHICAGO CUBS Age: 30 2008 salary: $4.2 million with another potential $3.45 million in performance bonuses. Key stat: 0 career saves. The skinny: His body broke down under heavy wear and tear as a starter with the Cubs. But he showed some promise in limited action out of the bullpen last season, and the Cubs will give him a shot at the closer's position in 2008. If he shines, a big contract will be on the horizon. 壹报导：他的身体在担任Cubs先发投手时候受到了巨大的损伤。但是他上一季在牛棚 中有限度的表现中给了教练团信心，因此Cubs在08年给了他closer这一个重责大任。 如果他能够方光发热，一份巨大的合约会慢慢从地平线中升起。 -- 「写下这些日记的人，在重新踏上阿根廷的土地时，就已经死去。我，已经不再是我。」 ---Che Guevara--- --
