Can the Yankees and A-Rod Live Without Each Other? 洋基和阿肉 可以不用互相取暖吗? 　课以吗 课以吗.... By Tyler Kepner Had a chance to speak today with Scott Boras about the upcoming Alex Rodriguez negotiations. We heard many times from Alex this season that his choice is New York, he loves New York, and he wants to stay here forever. So I asked Boras if he will try to keep Rodriguez with the Yankees. 我今天有个呛司，可以跟Scott Boras聊上两句，谈谈关於未来阿肉的薪资协商，我们 大家都听过好几次阿肉自己表示：他要纽约...他爱纽约.....他想要留在纽约... 所以，我问波拉斯是否会试着让阿肉留在洋基。 “I think Alex is very happy in New York,” he said. “He was very comfortable and he’s been highly successful. He will have won two M.V.P. awards and he’s played at a high level, been to the playoffs every year. Obviously he’d like to win a world championship, but other than that, I would say it’s gone smoothly.” 他说：「当然，我知道阿肉在纽约过的金欢喜啦」，「很酥胡也一直很成功」， 他将会赢得M.V.P，他每年一直保持着高水准一直到季後赛， 他当然想赢得世界大赛，虽然没有拿到，不过除此之外，一切都走的很顺利阿。 Then Boras talked about the spike in the Yankees’ attendance since A-Rod joined the team, and the fact that A-Rod has the most runs batted in on the team over the last four years -– even if his 156 in 2007 were not included. The sides have not yet begun negotiating. The Yankees are holding organizational meetings next week, and Rodriguez is traveling to Southern California soon to consult with Boras. 波拉斯谈到，从阿肉加入洋基以来的过去四年之中，事实证明他是贡献最多打点的球员， 甚至先不把他今年(2007年)的156分打点包含进去。 两边(意指球团和经纪人)还未开始展开协商，洋基下星期将要开球团会议，而阿肉也会 尽快前往南加州与波拉斯讨论一番。 He has made his own decisions before, going against Boras’s advice to sign his first Seattle contract (four years, $10.6 million) and forego salary arbitration. But that was 11 years ago, and if Rodriguez is going to remain a Yankee, he will have to resist the temptation of free agency. 他(阿肉)以前自己做过决定，与波拉斯的建议背道而驰，签下他与水手的合约， 然後放弃薪资仲裁。但是这件事已经是11年前了，如果阿肉依旧想要待在洋基的话， 他必须能够抗拒成为FA的诱惑。 The Yankees say they really, truly will drop out of the negotiations if A-Rod opts out, because they would lose a $30 million subsidy from the Texas Rangers. In a way, both sides seem to think that one can’t live without the other. Boras thinks the Yankees need A-Rod for their business to thrive, on and off the field. The Yankees think A-Rod needs them to get the big dollars he seeks. If he opts out, they believe, he will be turning down a huge offer that he is unlikely to get elsewhere. 洋基很明确的表示，如果阿肉使用逃脱条款，他们也不会去追逐他(将退出协商)， 因为他们将会损失掉条子付的$30 million，就某种程度而言，这两边人都在耍心机， 似乎都认为对方没有我不行。 波拉斯认为，洋基需要阿肉来帮他们赚进大把大把的银子，不管是场内还是场外， 阿肉都能够让场子热起来。 而洋基则认为，阿肉所需要的这麽一大笔薪资，只有洋基这凯子才付的起。 如果他逃脱的话，表示他拒绝了这麽一大笔交易，但他哪里也去不了。 Of course, the Yankees have won no pennants since trading for A-Rod in 2004. I asked Boras about his client’s postseason performance, and he mentioned all kinds of players who had a lower career postseason average than Rodriguez ’s .279, including Joe DiMaggio, Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle. “Willie Mays had one home run and 10 r.b.i. in 89 postseason at-bats,” Boras said. “Alex has seven home runs and 17 r.b.i. and a .280 batting average.” 当然，阿肉自从2004年到洋基以来，洋基是没拿过任何冠军，我问了波拉斯关於阿肉的 季後赛表现，然後他就开始喇塞，开始把一些季後赛成绩比阿肉的.279打击率更低的 一些人提出来。例如Joe DiMaggio, Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle 「Willie Mays在89个季後赛打数里头，只有一支全垒打跟10分打点」 「我们家阿肉至少有七支全垒打，17分打点跟.280的打击率咧....」 Those are all facts, though I wonder what Yankees fans think about them. In any case, should the Yankees pay $30 million-plus per year, for 10 years or more, to retain Rodriguez? And if they do, could Rodriguez actually turn that down? And if he does, do you think the Yankees will really drop out of the bidding if he opts out? 这些都是事实没错，不过我比较想知道洋基迷会怎麽看待，无论如何，洋基该付出 每年$30M，长达十年，甚至更长的合约，去把阿肉留下吗? 如果洋基这麽作，阿肉有拒绝的可能性吗? 如果他真的使用逃脱条款，你认为洋基就真的会放弃竞逐他吗? http://bats.blogs.nytimes.com/tag/yankees/ -- 好像是89个打数哦 我改了 谢谢楼上^^ ※ 编辑: numblife 来自: 59.116.6.143 (10/14 12:31)
