Deal may be Ray of hope for Yanks Thursday, November 29, 2007 BY ED PRICE AND DAN GRAZIANO 重点: 双城和魟鱼队的交易更为洋基在山大王的争夺增添希望的曙光 1. 双城和魟鱼队昨天的交易, 并不如推测地降低Santana交易的机会, 反而增加了洋基在 这场争夺战中站稳有利的位置。大都会则可能必须寻找另一个替代的人选。 2. 双城用右投手Matt Garza换来了魟鱼队的Delmon Young。另外也用後援投手Juan Rincon及游击手Jason Jason Bartlett交换魟鱼的游击手Brendon Harris及小联盟的 外野手Jason Pridie。一位双城不愿具名的官方人员表示, 双城队仍然需要一位中外 野手也弥补Torii Hunter留下的空缺, 因为他们认为Pridie还不算是ready的中外野 手, 因此不准备让他接替此一位置, 而想透过交易得到一位CF, 洋基队似乎比较符合 双城的要求, 因为洋基提供的投手深度比较足够。例如: Phil Hughes比较能抵销双 城在丧失Garza後的损失。 3. 一位匿名的洋基官方人员也表示, 洋基觉得应该可以在不要动到张伯伦和Cano的情 况下完成Santana的交易。 4. 一位与Santana交易谈判有关联同样不愿具名的人士也表示, 大都会队在这场争夺 战提供的条件不仅落後, 而且大都会的老板并没有授权签下五年以上投手的合约, 即使是山大王也不例外。但是Santana想要把这个合约签到2014年。这位人士表示, 大都会现在更有兴趣的是去交易运动家队的Dan Haren或Joe Blanton, 以及从自由 市场上去签Livan Hernandez或Carlos Silva。 (这阵子乳摸当头, 全是一些官方不愿具名人士的流言) Star-Ledger Staff The Minnesota Twins made a trade yesterday, and while it wasn't yet the one for ace Johan Santana, the deal might have strengthened the Yankees' position in the race for the left-hander. Meanwhile, the Mets might have to look for a pitcher other than Santana because of the extension he seeks in exchange for approving a trade. Minnesota's six-player swap with the Yankees' divisional rival Tampa Bay netted the Twins outfielder Delmon Young for right-hander Matt Garza. The Rays also got reliever Juan Rincon and shortstop Jason Bartlett in exchange for shortstop Brendon Harris and minor-league outfielder Jason Pridie. According to an official with one of the teams involved who asked not to be named because he is not authorized to speak for the organization, Minnesota felt its talent was heavier on pitching and this trade helps rectify that imbalance. So while the Twins still would like a center fielder in exchange for Santana -- Pridie plays center but isn't considered ready to fill the vacancy left by Torii Hunter's departure -- the person said they probably prefer other players in the deal to be pitchers. That would seem to suit the Yankees fine, because they are deepest in pitching. Phil Hughes, for example, could help the Twins offset the loss of Garza. A Yankees official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he is not directly involved in talks, said the team feels it can get Santana without giving up pitcher Joba Chamberlain or second baseman Robinson Cano. A person connected with the Santana talks, who declined to be identified because he is not authorized to speak for the decision-makers, said the Mets were not likely to be a serious suitor for Santana. Not only do the Mets lag behind other contenders in the quality of the pitching prospects they have to offer, but the person said he was told that Mets ownership would not authorize a contract of more than five years for any pitcher -- even Santana. When Santana, a two-time Cy Young Award winner who is eligible for free agency a year from now, rejected Minnesota's offer of a contract extension, he made it known he sought a contract through 2014. The Mets, the person said, appear much more interested in making a deal with the Oakland A's, for either Dan Haren or Joe Blanton, and in signing a free-agent starting pitcher such as Livan Hernandez or Carlos Silva. --
