Nats pick up option on Span, decline LaRoche and Soriano http://ppt.cc/I-am Mark Zuckerman Oct 30, 2014, 4:14 PM EDT The Nationals made their first contract decisions of the offseason Thursday afternoon, picking up the $9 million option they held on center fielder Denard Span for 2015 but declining their options on first baseman Adam LaRoche and reliever Rafael Soriano. 球季结束後的周四下午国民做了首个合约抉择， 捡起中外野手Denard Span明年的9M选择权， 但一垒手Adam LaRoche与Rafael Soriano的部分则拒绝执行。 None of the three moves was a surprise, but each helps shape the club’s roster building as the Hot Stove League officially opens for business following the conclusion of the World Series. 不意外。世界大赛结束而Hot Stove League正式开始， 球队也开始形塑建立自己的roster。 The decision to bring back Span was a no-brainer on the heels of his impressive , all-around season. The 30-year-old hit .302 with a .355 on-base percentage, a career-high 31 stolen bases and set a new club record with 184 hits. He’s also a finalist for the Gold Glove Award in center field, along with the Mets’ Juan Lagares and the Reds’ Billy Hamilton. 在Span缴出令人惊艳的全能球季後，把他带回来完全不需要考虑。 30岁的Span缴出.302打击率，.355上垒率，生涯新高31次盗垒成功， 184支安打则是队史新纪录； 他也进入中外野金手套最终决选， 其他候选人还有大都会的Juan Lagares与红人Billy Hamilton。 At $9 million, Span remains a relative bargain for his third season with the Nationals. Span迎来他在国民的第三个球季，就9M这个价钱依然是相对便宜的。 “We knew when we acquired Denard from the Minnesota Twins two years ago what type of player we were getting,” general manager Mike Rizzo said in a statement released by the team. “And he’s done nothing but bear that out the last two seasons. Denard was arguably our most consistent offensive player in 2014, keying so much of our offensive production, and his defense in center field is Gold Glove-caliber on a nightly basis. We’re excited to keep him in the fold for the 2015 season.” 「两年前从双城要来Denard Span时我们就知道他的能耐。」 Mike Rizzo在球队的公开声明中表示。 「过去两年他做得比我们想得更好， Denard可以说是2014年阵中攻击能力最从一而终的球员， 对我们的攻击产能至为关键。 他每晚在中外野的防守也都是金手套级，他能留在2015年阵中我们都很兴奋。」 While Span will return to Washington for his third season, LaRoche’s tenure with the organization effectively comes to an end after four years. The two sides held a mutual, $15 million option for 2015. The Nationals chose not to pick it up, instead paying the veteran first baseman a $2 million buyout and making him a free agent. 与此同时，LaRoche与国民的四年占有期即将结束。 2015年是15M的双边选择权，国民决定把他放生到自由市场， 选择支付2M买断金。 As critical as LaRoche was to this club — after an injury-plagued debut in 2011, he posted an .804 OPS over the following thre seasons — the Nationals knew they needed to open up first base for Ryan Zimmerman, whose longstanding shoulder trouble and throwing woes on the other side of the diamond will force a permanent position change next year. 就LaRoche的表现来评断：2011年痛痛，之後三年上缴.804OPS。 国民知道他们得把一垒保留给受肩伤导致传球问题的Ryan Zimmerman， 这个永久性的转变将从明年开始。 LaRoche assumed this decision was coming all along. LaRoche一直假设会出现这个决定。 “I love playing here. I love these guys,” he said in late September. “But we’ll have to see how that plays out. They may be in a spot where they need to make some moves, and I may be out of a spot.” 「我喜欢在这里打球，我爱这些家伙。」 九月底他这麽说。 「但我们要看看情况如何发展。他们或许得要做些改变，而我也许不在计画中。」 The decision not to pick up a $14 million option on Soriano also became inevitable once the veteran right-hander collapsed during the second half of the season and lost his closer’s job to Drew Storen. 经过下半季大崩溃还丢掉终结者的位置给Drew Storen後， 不捡右投老将Soriano的14M选择权也成为必然。 Soriano finished his two years in Washington with a 3.15 ERA in 132 appearances , recording 75 saves in 88 opportunities. His 85.2 percent save conversion rate the last two seasons ranked 24th out of 29 regular major-league closers. 两年结算Soriano总共在132次出赛中缴出3.15ERA， 88次救援机会完成75次， 过去两年85.2%的救援成功率在29位正规终结者中排第24名。 --
