Could the Nats re-sign any of their free agents? BY Mark Zuckerman, December 5, 2017 文章来源：https://goo.gl/PM84BS 小弟我是因为去年有机会在DC待一年，随着进场次数增加才慢慢开始认识这个球队，开始 关注国民的比赛(在台湾时是笑脸人迷XD)。 不过注意力主要还是被Harper、Zimmerman、小史、Max这些明星球员吸引，要不是Rendon 在我面前开外挂轰了三发加上十分打点，我可能也不会对他有太多印象(成功的自我介绍XD)。 虽然可惜今年最终又是一轮游，每次坐地铁会看到满满大头广告的Baker也跟我一起离开 DC XD，不过还是觉得这个球队很有趣，虽然最好七局就先闪人XD。 刚好看到这篇文章介绍了一些本季离开的选手，有些看到名字会有印象，但不太知道他的 经历，於是顺手翻了一下，顺便让我有机会找找他们的资料，认识认识，如果有误或是其 他大大可以补充的趣事请不吝分享~ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you scrolled through yesterday’s organizational depth chart blog post, you may have noticed that the Nationals lost a significant amount of depth in a few areas when the season ended and several prominent players became free agents. All of a sudden, that remade bullpen is looking mighty thin. As is the Nats bench, which was such a strength by season’s end. It doesn’t have to remain that way, of course. The Nationals can (and likely will) fill those holes this winter with new signings or trade acquisitions. But they also could re-sign one or more of the free agents they lost earlier in the fall. There are reasons to believe these are less likely to occur than the signings of new players. But let’s run through the list and consider what it would take to bring any of them back to D.C. in 2018 ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 若是你有阅读昨天关於国民队各位置整体深度的文章的话，你或许会注意到国民队在球季 结束後在部分守备位置上失去了许多球员，而这些离队的球员许多都成为了自由球员。突 然之间，刚重建好的牛棚在球季一结束後看起来又变得相当薄弱，而国民队的板凳也是如 此。 当然，这个情况不会一直维持下去，国民队可以(将会)在这个冬天透过交易或是签下新球 员来填补这些缺口。但，他们同样可以考虑将本季因成为自由球员而离队的选手重新签下 来。虽然许多的迹象都显示重新签回一个老球员比签一个新球员的机率还低，但还是让我 们逐一的讨论这些球员有哪些优势有可能让他们在明年球季返回DC... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADAM LIND You could argue this would be the most important player on the list the Nationals could re-sign, given his performance this season, the lack of another left-handed bat to back up a first base and the obvious concern than Ryan Zimmerman won’t be as productive (or as healthy) in 2018 as he was in 2017. But the Nationals declined to pick up their portion of Lind’s $5 million mutual option, a decision that may have surprised some but was understandable given how large of a salary that is for a guy who ideally would only get 250-300 at-bats. Lind, meanwhile, is probably going to get offers for more playing time from other clubs, especially American League clubs that could use him as part of a DH rotation. It’s a tough loss for the Nationals, but they’re just going to have to find left-handed bench help elsewhere. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADAM LIND 你或许可以说，对国民而言，以他今年的表现，他会是今年离队的自由球员中最重要且最 可能签回的一位。尤其是目前国民打线中缺少一个可以守一垒的左打，同时另一个明显的 考量就是Ryan Zimmerman。他明年的状态(或是健康)未必能和今年一样。不过国民队最後 选择拒绝执行Lind 2018年五百万美金的合约，这个决定让人惊讶却也不难理解，毕竟要 付出这麽大笔的薪资却只能换来一个理想情况下也只能贡献250-300打席的球员。 在此同时，Lind可能也在找寻一份可以拥有较多出赛时间的球队，尤其是美联的球队，他 们可以让Lind担任DH的轮值。对国民来说，这会是个很可惜的损失，但他们仍然需要从其 他地方找到一个左手的代打。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ HOWIE KENDRICK Kendrick was one of Mike Rizzo’s savviest pickups last summer, a versatile veteran who could fill in at several positions and provide a quality right-handed bat off the bench. He was a two-month rental, though, with the Nats knowing he’d be a free agent at season’s end. And in all likelihood, they wouldn’t plan to re-sign him. But then Daniel Murphy needed microfracture knee surgery in October, a complicated procedure that could prevent the starting second baseman from making the opening day lineup. The Nationals hope Murphy will be back in time (and back to his old self) but they need to cover themselves just in case. Kendrick would certainly be a nice Plan B, but like Lind he’s probably going to get offers for guaranteed playing time elsewhere this winter. The Nats also have Wilmer Difo as a potential second baseman if Murphy isn’t ready to go. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- HOWIE KENDRICK 获得Kendrick可以说是Rizzo在今年夏天做出多笔精明交易的其中一个。这位资深的工具 人可以替补许多的守备位置，同时也能在板凳上提供不错的右打火力。他在国民的合约只 有两个月，因此在球季结束後就成为了自由球员。目前看来，国民并无计画考虑重新签下 他。 但Daniel Murphy在十月会进行膝盖的手术，情况复杂的话这位先发二垒手可能会在明年 开季时缺席。国民队当然希望Murphy能够赶得上开季(同时恢复身手)，但他们还是需要事 先准备一些备案。Kendrick将会是个不错的选择。但就像Lind一样，他会希望今年冬天能 在其他地方获得一份保证他出赛时间的合约。替补二垒手这部分并非国民队首要的问题， 万一Murphy真的无法如预期回归球场，他们还有Wilmet Difo 可以做为备案。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BRANDON KINTZLER Though most of the attention on the Nationals’ remade bullpen was focused on Sean Doolittle and Ryan Madson, Kintzler was no less significant an in-season addition. He primarily pitched the seventh inning but also filled in later when needed, and was quite effective. The right-hander was a rental pitcher, but there’s a strong argument for the Nats to try to bring him back. That said, Kintzler isn’t going to be cheap. Whether you agree with the philosophy or not, his 29 saves (28 of which came with the Twins) will raise his price tag. Are the Nationals willing to pay closer prices for a seventh-inning guy? There’s an argument to be made that they should, but they might feel like they can fill that void in a more affordable fashion. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BRANDON KINTZLER 虽然国民上季季中牛棚补强主要都聚焦在Sean Doolittle与Ryan Madson身上，但 Kintzler受到的关注也不少。他主要都是在第七局上场，若有需要也能在後面局数上场， 表现也相当不错。这位右投手虽然只是位租约球员，但国民队其实有相当强烈的理由尝试 将他签回。 这麽说好了，Kintzler并不会变得比较便宜，不论是你否同意这种论点，但他上季29次的 救援成功(其中28次是在双城队拿到的)将会提升他的身价。国民队是否会愿意花一位救援 投手的价格换取一位专门负责第七局的牛呢?这样的争论想必国民队一定经历过，但最後 他们似乎觉得可以透过其他可负担的方法来填补这个空缺。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ MATT ALBERS Speaking of more affordable, Albers probably can be had for less than Kintzler. But the big right-hander is still going to get a nice deal from someone after his dominant season in D.C. The Nationals got Albers on a minor league contract last winter, one that paid him $1.15 million once he made the roster. But he’ll be in line for a much bigger figure this time around, possibly even a multi-year deal. Thing is, Albers probably is worth it. Rib the guy all you want, but did you know that over the last six seasons he sports a 2.89 ERA and 1.198 WHIP, making an average of 46 appearances per season? He’s going to turn 35 next month, so age is a concern. But this one might be worth the gamble. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ MATT ALBERS 说到可负担的球员，Albers或许会比Kintzler便宜一些。但这位右投手仍希望在他於DC投 出生涯年後可以获得一张理想的合约。国民是在去年冬季以小联盟约将Albers签下，合约 内容是一旦他能上大联盟，就能领到115万美金的薪资。而现在他还在等待一张更大的合 约，甚至获得复数年合约。 重点是，Albers或许值得一张好的合约。你可以嘲笑他不自量力，但你可知道在过去六季 他的防御率是2.89，WHIP值是1.198，平均每季出赛数是46场。由於下个月他将迎接他的 35岁生日，所以年纪会是主要的考量。但国民队值得在他身上赌一把。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OLIVER PÉREZ When used as a matchup guy against left-handed batters, Perez was fairly effective the last two seasons with the Nationals. But the 36-year-old probably isn’t coming back, not with younger and more affordable lefties Enny Romero and Sammy Solís already on hand. 过去待在国民队的两季，Perez在面对左打时的压制力还算不错，但他36岁的年纪或许不 会再回到国民球场，因为目前队上还有Enny Romero 与Sammy Solis这两位不仅更年轻且 薪资较低的左投手。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ JOE BLANTON The mid-spring signing of Blanton for $4 million was hailed as a savvy move by the Nationals, but it blew up in their faces. The right-hander had a terrible season, serving up gopher balls at an alarming rate and getting buried in the bullpen as a result. The Nats won’t come calling again this winter. 国民队在去年春季时以400万美金签下Blanton，这在当时被认为是一个合理的作为，但最 後却被大家骂翻了。这位右投手缴出了一个相当糟糕的球季，相当甜的球不断被打者击出 墙，导致牛棚不断放火。国民队在这个冬天绝对不会再与他联络。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EDWIN JACKSON Nobody could have imagined one of baseball’s most tried and true journeymen would end up making 13 starts for a first-place Nationals club (and be pretty effective for a good chunk of that time). By season’s end, though, Jackson had reverted into the form that has left him searching for a new team every winter throughout his vagabond career. The Nats love him as a person, and perhaps they’re willing to give him another shot. But it would be on a minor league deal, and not to be guaranteed the No. 5 starter’s job. 绝对没有人会想到Jackson这位棒球浪人居然最终会在排名第一的国民队获得十三次的先 发机会(而且在那段时间表现还相当不错)。然而球季结束後，Jackson还是离开球队，如 同每年冬天一样继续找寻新的球队。不过国民队很喜欢他这个人，或许会愿意再给他一张 合约，但可能只是一张小联盟的合约，且并不保证能够获得五号先发的位置。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ JOSE LOBATON Everyone’s favorite backup catcher almost certainly played his final game for the Nationals in October. Sadly, the final image most will have of him is getting picked off first base despite beating the throw - his foot barely came off the bag, leading to a costly replay reversal - in Game 5 against the Cubs. The Nats may try to improve their catching situation this winter, but Lobaton (who may struggle to get a major league contract elsewhere) won’t be the answer. 这位人见人爱的候补捕手在十月已经完成了他在国民队的最後一场比赛。令人难过的是， 他留给国民球迷的印象却可能会是他在一垒被牵制出局的画面，虽然回垒的速度比捕手牵 制的球还要快，但他的脚却在一瞬间微微地离开了垒包，导致在季後赛第五场面对小熊时 ，被电视辅助判决判出局。在这个冬天，国民队会试图提升它们的捕手战力，但Lobaton 并不会是国民队捕手的解答(他要在其他球队获得一张大联盟的合约都有困难)。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ STEPHEN DREW When healthy, he proved to be quite a valuable backup infielder and left-handed bat off the bench. Trouble is, he had all kinds of problems staying healthy the last two seasons. The Nats can’t offer him any kind of guaranteed deal. If he’s willing to return on a minor league contract, maybe there’s interest. But even so, Difo’s emergence this year probably made Drew expendable. 当健康的时候，他的确证明了他自己能够担纲一位称职的内野替补与板凳上的左打代打。 但问题是，在过去两季他实在受了太多大大小小的伤了。国民队无法提供任何保障约给他 ，若他愿意拿小联盟的合约，或许国民队会对他有兴趣。但即便如此，Difo这季紧急救火 的表现也让Drew在国民队中变成可有可无的球员了。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ JAYSON WERTH Sorry, it’s not gonna happen. Both sides recognized this in September and October. Werth’s place in franchise lore is significant, and he’ll forever be remembered as the first big-name free agent to want to come to Washington and help transform this club into a consistent winner. But if he plays in 2018, it’ll be elsewhere. 抱歉，这不可能会发生，国民队与Werth在九、十月就已经意识到这件事情了。Werth在国 民队的队史中绝对占有重要地位，当人们谈论起国民队在自由市场签下的第一位明星球员 时，脑中想到的绝对是他的名字，他从自由市场进入国民队後也令这支球队成为常胜军。 但若他在2018年还是以球员身份在场上出赛的话，那绝对是穿着其他队的球衣。 --
