原文请见 boston.com http://0rz.tw/b63n6 The Sox were prepared to return home today without the two-time Cy Young Award winner, though the rebuff by the Minnesota Twins may be temporary. No one on either side is declaring that negotiations have come to an end; with no one other than Yankees owner Hank Steinbrenner setting artificial deadlines, there is every reason to believe talks will continue in the coming weeks to determine if the sides can agree to a match. 袜子们今天准备不带着2届赛扬奖得主山塔那就回家,尽管被双城拒绝只是暂时的.没有 一边的人宣称这项谈判已经走向结束.也没有人像洋基小老板一样有设下截止日,有充分 理由相信会在接下来数周双方对话会持续去决定是否另一边能接受这样的搭配 The pressure to trade Santana is strictly an economic one, which is why the halls of the Opryland Hotel were filled with folks who predict a deal will eventually get done: Santana is eligible for free agency after the 2008 season; the small-market Twins, who only a few years ago were targeted by Major League Baseball for contraction, don't have the money to meet his demands; and the deep-pockets clubs do. 要交易山塔那的压力是一个完全有利可图的个案,这也是为什麽Opryland饭店的大厅充 斥着那些预测交易终会玩成的人们.山塔那在2008年球季之後就有自由球员资格;小市场的 双城队(下一句不知道怎样翻xd)没有钱去达到她的要求,有充足预算的球队则可以 For now, Twins general manager Bill Smith is not satisfied with the packages proffered by the Sox. He is content to wait to see if the Sox show any willingness to part with pitcher Jon Lester and outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury, much like the Tigers packaged their top two prospects, pitcher Andrew Miller and outfielder Cameron Maybin, to make a blockbuster deal with the Florida Marlins for slugger Miguel Cabrera and lefthanded pitcher Dontrelle Willis. 现在,双城的经理比尔史密斯不满足红袜所提供的提案.他很甘愿去等待是否红袜能表示出 任何意愿将投手Lester以及外野手小帅哥加入交易案里面,就像老虎队打包了它们2个顶级 潜力球员,投手Miller跟外野手Maybin,去交易换得马林鱼的强打Cabrera跟左投D-Train That deal, according to one top National League executive, has made the Tigers the early favorites to win the American League pennant in 2008. "But if the Red Sox get Santana," he said of the defending World Series champions, "the Yankees will be playing for the wild card for the next five years." 这项交易,根据一名国联的高级主管表示,将会让老虎提早成为2008美联冠军旗的最有望 得胜者."但是如果红袜拿到山塔那,"他说为了要去扞卫世界大赛冠军,"洋基将会在未来 5年为外卡而奋斗" The chances of the Sox and Twins striking a deal late last night appeared remote. Sox manager Terry Francona headed home yesterday after a media luncheon, and the Twins were still trying to lure other teams into the bidding. The Mariners signaled some interest; the Dodgers, a team that has the young talent required to tempt the Twins, did not. No one save Steinbrenner is ruling out the Yankees, while the Mets are dancing on the periphery. 红袜跟双城敲定交易的机会在昨晚变的微乎其微.红袜的教练嚼嚼粉科男在媒体午餐会报 之後返家,双城则持续尝试去诱惑另外的组合进入这次的喊价中.水手暗示出他们有兴趣; 道奇,拥有可以打动双城的年轻潜力选手,却没有兴趣.没有人确保史坦柏纳将洋基排除,正 当大都会正跳舞在他们的末梢上(干 最後这句我翻这啥小) Epstein attended an affiliates dinner last night, then expected to work late into the evening again. 洗碗好手Epstein昨晚参加了成员晚餐,然後被期待能再度加入後期工作 "The Twins, we certainly respect the position the Twins are in," Epstein said, without specifically acknowledging the object of his affections, kind of like the David Allan Coe country song that goes, "You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'. You never even call me by my name." "双城队,我们无疑地尊重它们现在的情况"洗碗高手说,没有特别地承认它对於目标的影响 有点像是the David Allan Coe country song那样 "你不用打给我 亲爱的 亲爱的 你甚至从没用我的名子叫我" ....(没力的 待续 sorry) 唔 好久没碰英文了 翻得真烂 请大家见谅 剩下的部分会再翻 或是有看不下去我鸟烂英文的版友要接力也可以... 辛苦大家把这篇烂翻译看完xd --
