http://tinyurl.com/9z6zlwd Zack Greinke: Texas Rangers Should Break the Bank on Top Free Agent 在2012交易大限前，Zack Greinke有可能成为条子的一员，但是他最後却到了天使 The possibility of Zack Greinke in a Texas Rangers uniform ultimately fell through at the 2012 MLB trading deadline, as he went to AL West divisional rival Los Angeles instead. 然而，T.R Sullivan相信球团会在季後赛後，不计代价的签下这位在2009拿过赛扬奖的 投手 However, MLB.com's Rangers beat writer T.R. Sullivan believes the franchise will take another look at him in the free-agent market this offseason, where they would be wise to break the bank on the 2009 AL Cy Young Award winner. 直到Josh Hamiltom可能会被骂翻的季末大崩盘前，阿灵顿球场最大的问题依然是 缺少可靠的先发投手群 Pending free-agent Josh Hamilton may bear the brunt of the blame for the Texas Rangers' shocking late-season collapse. But the biggest problem in Arlington remains lackluster starting pitching Sullivan写到:条子在交易大限前，展现了极大的决心要追他，他是在市场中最好的投手 而且我们需要强化我们的先发，...条子会在今年冬天成为强力追逐Zack Greinke的球队 之一，以强化他们的先发轮值 Sullivan writes: The Rangers made a strong push for him at the Trade Deadline, he is the premier pitching free agent on the market and this is still an organization that wants to build around pitching...Look for the Rangers to be one of the major pursuers for Greinke this winter in an attempt to reinforce their rotation. Suillivan一直是个非常可靠的消息来源，而且条子似乎非常有决心地要加强先发 Sullivan is a very reliable source, and it seems the organization itself wants to build around better starting pitching. 在2012年，条子的86场优质先发和3.99的ERA分别排在联盟的14和16名，在这些指标 数据上，没有一支打进季後赛的队伍的ERA比条子差 In 2012, the team's 86 quality starts and combined 3.99 ERA were only good enough for 14th and 16th in the league, respectively, in those key categories. No playoff team had a worse team ERA than the Rangers did. 虽然Greinke今年的表现并没有像他四年前般那样的强，但他一来马上可以成为条子的 一号先发，且他会成为条子若没有签下Hamilton和Napoli的救命仙丹 Although he hasn't quite matched his spectacular season of four years ago, Greinke would instantly become the ace in Texas. He will be needed even more desperately if the team can't hold onto Hamilton or catcher Mike Napoli for a reasonable price. 就目前的先发群来看，Holland表现让人失望的一年，但明显地他还有成长空间 达比修证明他可以适应大联盟，并在第一年就拿下了16胜，Harrison拿下了18胜和 3.28的ERA，都是条子这季最好的先发表现 As the rotation stands right now, Derek Holland is coming off of a down year but has obvious potential, Yu Darvish proved that he could adjust to the MLB by winning 16 games in his first season, and Matt Harrison notched 18 victories and a 3.28 ERA, best among Ranger starters. 除了他们，还有两百万 一年约的Colby Lewis，和表现不佳的Feldman。还有在交易 大限前获得的Dempster Beyond them, Colby Lewis cashed in a one-year deal for $2 million (via the Star-Telegram), but the struggling Scott Feldman also remains. One point that may be lost in the chaos of the Texas collapse is trade-deadline acquisition Ryan Dempster. 在小熊投的不错後，Dempster被买来试图要帮助条子的先发 ，他在条子取得5-5和5.09ERA的表现，并在这个季後会成为自由球员 After pitching well for the Chicago Cubs to start the season, Dempster was brought in to try to help out the Ranger rotation. He went on to post a 5-5 record with a 5.09 ERA, and will be a free agent as well this offseason. 虽然我们有不错的先发阵容，但如果想在季後赛中走远一点的话，更多的补强是 绝对必要的 There is definitely some promising depth to the rotation, but further fortification is necessary for this team to contend deep in the postseason. Daniels可能会想且需要建造一个以Greinke为中心的先发阵容，来带领这支球队走过在 世界大赛中的痛 Headlining the rotation with Greinke might be the move Daniels and Co. need to make to get this team over the World Series hump. 有着条子强大的火力支援，Greinke可能会成为他生涯中第一次的20胜投手。 他只有28岁，给他一张长约会让他为这支球队一直投出不错的成绩 With the kind of run support the Rangers are capable of providing, Greinke could become a 20-game winner for the first time in his career. He is only 28 years old; so making a long-term investment in him would keep him with the team for the rest of his prime playing days. 我们对到底该不该签回Hamilton还有许多的疑问，虽然他的炮管是难以取代的， 但不管怎样，在这个难关上，条子一定会变得更好 There are still plenty of doubts about Hamilton re-signing. His offensive production will be difficult to replace, but no matter what, the Rangers must get better on the bump. 在这个冬天，就让我们从获得Greinke开始吧 That starts with a redemptive effort to acquire Greinke this winter. 看来条子应该是毫无意外且必须要追到Zack Greinke，但我们有像洋基或老虎那样 的有钱吗?我觉得签下Greinke後，我们根本没钱再追Hammy和Napoli了，希望不要 三者皆空阿 . --
