标题[外电] Rays extend Escobar on 3 years deal
时间Sun Apr 6 09:12:32 2014
The Rays announced this weekend that they have extended gold-glove candidate
short stop Yunel Escobar through 2016 with an option for 2017.
Activating the $5M option remaining on his current contract for 2015, the
deal then guarantees $8M for 2016, with an option at $7M for 2017 or a $1M
buyout.
32 2015 ＄ 5.0M Activate option
33 2016 ＄ 8.0M
34 2017 ＄ 7.0M 1M buyout
The extension appears to have been originate by Escobar, who personally
tracked down Andrew Friedman and expressed interest in the deal. Escobar
recently changed agents last week.
续约是由Escobar主动提的，他主动找上Andrew Friedman并表达想续约的想法。
------
Escobar's offense came in a 100 wRC+ last season, amid a two-year suppression
of his in-play batting average. He has been steadily increasing his line
drive percentages and power but recently stopped pulling the ball. The theory
goes that should Escobar get back to hooking pitches, a few more balls will
find corners and blue seats instead of gloves.
Escobar连续两年打击率低迷後增加了击出平飞球的比例，并减少拉打。
Over the past three seasons (2011-13), Escobar's .982 fielding percentage
ranks third in the majors (min. 400 starts) behind Baltimore's J.J. Hardy
(.988) and Philadelphia's Jimmy Rollins (.983). According to Stats LLC,
Escobar's .853 zone rating over the past two seasons (2012-13) leads all
major league shortstops (min. 200 starts). His 3.9 WAR led American League
shortstops last season.
Escobar是…
过去三年守备率第三的游击手。
过去两年的防守范围评价最好的游击手。
去年是美联WAR最高的游击手。
Escobar particularly thrived last season after he was moved to the nine-hole
in the lineup, batting a .777 OPS over 82 games. Heading into the season,
Maddon named him a lock for the same position in the order.
打第九棒的82场比赛，OPS .777
今年开季也打第九棒。
Barring injury, this new deal will likely make Escobar the Rays leader in
games played at short stop, currently led by Julio Lugo at 489 games played,
followed by Jason Bartlett with 390 games played. The deal will also take
pressure off Top-5 prospect Hak-Ju Lee, who recently had multiple ligament
knee surgery.
没意外的话，Escobar的出赛场次会超过Julio Lugo和Jason Bartlett。
这笔签约也可以减轻Hak-Ju Lee的压力，他刚结束膝盖韧带手术的复健。
2017 will be Escobar's age-34 season.
