http://0rz.tw/185c0 Hal(不是Hank喔！)出来喊话说AJB应该会是我们的啦~~ NEW YORK -- Hal Steinbrenner is optimistic that A.J. Burnett will soon join the Yankees' rotation behind CC Sabathia, accomplishing the club's primary objective of significantly upgrading their starting pitching. (真正的老板)Hal有信心继CC後 AJB也很快会加入并升级NYY的投手阵容 The Yankees co-chairman told Newsday in a telephone interview Friday that Burnett -- who is said to be in decision-making mode -- could soon accept the Yankees' five-year, $80 million offer. Hal跟Newsday的人说 AJB可能快要接受这80M/5yr的合约了 The Braves are pushing to acquire Burnett and are prepared to provide a similar offer, and agent Darek Braunecker said that a third unidentified team could serve as a potential suitor. 勇士也准备提出一分类似的合约来尬 经纪人也放话说还有神秘第三者想要介入唷~~ "We're interested in [Burnett] and he's interested in us," Steinbrenner told the newspaper. "Obviously, New York has a lot to offer, and playing for the Yankees is just a great thing." Hal说洋基跟AJB彼此已有好感(羞) A signing of Burnett would lock in the Yankees' top two choices this winter, though it would not come cheaply. Having added another year and $20 million to their original offer to persuade Sabathia to sign, Steinbrenner said that the Yankees had few qualms in upgrading their package. 签下AJB是洋基这个冬天最重要的两项目标之一 但为了搞来CC而多加码了20M Hal觉得可能会影响到其他球员合约的大小 (我不相信....) Instead, general manager Brian Cashman flew to Vallejo, Calif., on Tuesday armed with that additional financial muscle. The Yankees also did not flinch at incorporating an opt-out clause that could make Sabathia a free agent after the 2011 season, when only $69 million of his $161 million will have been paid out. 有趣的是 现金人礼拜二飞去加州的时候 可是带着满满的预算去谈的耶 (armed with that additional financial muscle XD 真趣味) 洋基不吝於给CC逃脱条款 如果他真用了 洋基也只需付69M就是 "Once we started to see that it was important to them, and would move us closer to getting a deal done, it was not an agonizing decision," Steinbrenner said. Hal继续说如果他们(AJB方)觉得这个决定很重要的话 那就表示就快成交啦~~ 这可不是要他们做什麽痛苦的决定~~ (好痛苦的80M XD) Sabathia will undergo a physical within the next few days and could be introduced in a press conference at the old Yankee Stadium next week. The Yankees continue to plan more ceremonies for this winter at their former ballpark, but Steinbrenner said there are financial limits despite their large offers to Sabathia and Burnett. CC在接下来的几天会做个体检 下礼拜会在旧洋基球场内被介绍出来 洋基这冬天的动作可还没结束 不过Hal说实在不要看他们给CC跟AJB的这两张大约 他们钱再多还是有极限的好咩 (好想知道这个极限到底到哪....) "We do have a certain amount that we're willing to spend," Steinbrenner said. "We'll try to work within that." 好啦 恁爸还是有一些些钱可以花啦 我们还是会想办法花掉的啦 (嘴巴说不要 身体倒是挺诚实的代表.....) --
