再来提一个小问题： No compensation for Sox after Ross walks http://t.co/SQTg1wjH Did Boston err in not tendering a qualifying offer to Cody Ross? 红袜没提Qualifying Offer给Cody Ross，是不是犯下大错了？ Shortly after the season ended, Boston had the opportunity to tender Ross a contract of $13.3 million for the 2013 season. Only by tendering a qualifying offer would the Red Sox have been able to recoup a draft pick upon his departure — a pick that likely would have been in the back half of the first round of next June’s draft. 红袜有机会丢一张$13.3M的QO给他─这样才有希望捞一个选秀权回来，而且很有可能会 吃掉第一轮後半段的签。 Had Ross accepted the qualifying offer, it would be Ross and not Shane Victorino penciled into the Opening Day lineup in right field at the moment. Ross over Victorino would represent a minor offensive upgrade, probably, but a minor defensive and baserunning downgrade. 如果Cody Ross接受QO，那麽咱们开季时就会看到Cody Ross守右外野，而不是Shane Victorino。Cody Ross跟Victorino相比，火力稍优(或许吧)，防守和跑垒稍差。 With Ross not being a center fielder like Victorino, that scenario probably would have closed the door on any thoughts of trading Jacoby Ellsbury. Then again, had he accepted the qualifying offer, Ross also would not have required the three-year commitment the Red Sox gave Victorino. 因为Ross没办法像Victorino那样守中外野，关於交易Jacoby Ellsbury的传言就会消失。 然後，如果Cody Ross接受QO，他就拿不到三年约。 Had Ross declined the qualifying offer, he would have been out on the free-agent market with draft-pick compensation latched to his ankle like a ball and chain. Maybe he would have accepted even less than $13 million per season to return to Boston in order to get a multiyear deal. Maybe, however, he’d have signed elsewhere — and Boston would have received an extra draft pick and the extra $1 million or so in its Major League Baseball-permitted signing-bonus pool that comes with it. 如果Cody Ross拒绝QO，他就会进入FA市场─而且因为补偿选秀权的关系，Cody Ross的脚 踝会被扣住，成为他的一大负担。或许Cody Ross会为了签下复数年合约而接受年均低於 $13M的薪水；如果他不接受，我们就会拿到一个选秀权以及选秀签约金上限调高$1M。 Ross didn’t get $13 million annually or anything close to it. According to multiple reports, Ross agreed Saturday to a three-year, $26-million contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks. But Boston was willing to pay $13 million per year to Victorino. Detroit was willing to pay $13 million a year to Torii Hunter. San Francisco was willing to pay $10 million a year to Angel Pagan. It might have been worth the overpay to Ross in order to keep the deal to one year rather than extending to three with Victorino. Ross并没有获得年均$13M的约─事实上差很多。据说Ross和小蛇签下三年$26M的约；而 红袜开了年均$13M的约给Victorino、老虎也开了$13M给Torii Hunter；巨人则是砸了 $10M给Angel Pagan。所以为了拿下Cody Ross的一年合约，这样的overpay还算值得─ 比Victorino的三年还值得。 Ben Cherington said at the general managers’ meetings in early November that teams were less aggressive with qualifying offers than he expected they would be. He might not have been talking about himself at that moment. He might, however, be regretting having not been aggressive with a qualifying offer to Ross. Ben Cherington表示之前的GM会议上其他球队对於QO的积极度比他预期的低很多，但是他 好像没谈到自己如何。或许他会因为没给Cody Ross一份QO而感到後悔。 -- "HARD WORK BEATS TALENT WHEN TALENT FAILS TO WORK HARD." --
