Yankees, Brian Cashman reach contract; owner blames players for playoff exit 洋基隊與 Brian Cashman 達成合約協議；老闆將季後賽出局歸咎於球員 Jorge Castillo Oct 21, 2026, 11:18 AM ET ESPN https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/50238406/ NEW YORK -- Yankees general manager Brian Cashman has reached a new deal to continue in the post he has held since 1998, while owner Hal Steinbrenner blamed the players -- specifically the offense -- for the team's playoff exit. 紐約──洋基隊總經理 (general manager) Brian Cashman 已達成新合約協議，將繼續留 任他自 1998 年以來一直擔任的職位；與此同時，老闆 Hal Steinbrenner 則將球隊在季 後賽的出局歸咎於球員──特別是打擊發揮不佳。 "We just have to bang out some minor stuff on the back end of it," Cashman, 59, the longest-serving general manager in franchise history, said Wednesday on a video call with reporters from the Yankees' spring training facility in Tampa, Florida. "But, yeah, we're locked and loaded." 「我們只需要敲定一些後續的細節，」現年 59 歲、身為隊史任期最長總經理的 Cashman 週三在佛羅里達州坦帕 (Tampa, Florida) 的洋基隊春訓基地與媒體記者進行視訊通話時 表示。「不過，是的，我們已經準備就緒了。」 The Yankees have won four World Series championships and 15 American League East titles under Cashman's watch, but they have reached the World Series just once since winning their 27th title in 2009. 在 Cashman 的掌舵下，洋基隊曾贏得四座世界大賽冠軍與 15 座美聯東區冠軍，但自從 2009 年奪得隊史第 27 座冠軍以來，他們僅打進過一次世界大賽。 That 17-year drought is the second longest in franchise history, and the team's 13 consecutive playoff appearances without a World Series title is tied for the fourth-longest streak in MLB postseason history. 這段長達 17 年的冠軍荒是隊史第二長，而球隊連續 13 次打進季後賽卻未能奪得世界大 賽冠軍，也並列大聯盟季後賽歷史上第四長的紀錄。 The Yankees went 93-68 this season -- the team's third straight 90-win season -- and finished second in the AL East behind the Tampa Bay Rays, who swept New York in the ALDS en route to reaching their third World Series since 2008. 洋基隊本賽季打出 93 勝 68 敗的戰績──這是球隊連續第三個 90 勝賽季──在美聯東 區名列第二，僅次於坦帕灣光芒隊。光芒隊在美聯分區系列賽 (ALDS) 中橫掃紐約，一路 挺進自 2008 年以來的第三次世界大賽。 New York was without three-time MVP Aaron Judge and slugger Giancarlo Stanton for most of the season -- Judge was not available in the postseason and Stanton was used just as a pinch hitter -- but Steinbrenner repeatedly insisted Wednesday that the offense should have performed better. 紐約在大部分賽季缺少了三屆最有價值球員 Aaron Judge 與強打者 Giancarlo Stanton ── Judge 在季後賽無法上場，而 Stanton 僅被用作代打──但 Steinbrenner 週三多 次強調，打線本應有更好的表現。 "The bottom line is, the players didn't live up to their end of the bargain in the playoffs," Steinbrenner said on the video call. 「歸根結底，球員們沒有在季後賽中履行好他們的職責，」Steinbrenner 在視訊通話中 表示。 Steinbrenner said he and team officials had a weeklong conversation about manager Aaron Boone, weighing whether he was part of the problem this season. Ultimately, they decided he wasn't. Steinbrenner 表示，他和球隊高層進行了長達一週的討論，評估總教練 Aaron Boone 是 否也是本賽季問題的一部分。最終，他們認定他並不是問題所在。 "In the end, the majority of the responsibility -- I'll say it for the fifth time -- in my mind, my opinion, lies with the position players and the inability to score on a consistent basis throughout the course of the entire season for the most part," Steinbrenner said. "Not on the shoulders of Aaron Boone does the blame lie." 「歸根結底，主要的責任──這是我第五次強調──在我看來，我認為是在野手身上，以 及他們在整個賽季的大部分時間裡無法保持穩定得分的問題，」Steinbrenner 說。「這 份責任不該由 Aaron Boone 來承擔。」 Steinbrenner said he has not talked about a contract extension to Boone, who is entering the final year of an extension signed in February 2025. Steinbrenner 表示，他尚未與 Boone 討論續約事宜，Boone 即將進入他在 2025 年 2 月簽下的續約合約的最後一年。 "That's something I would certainly consider," Steinbrenner said. "I would consider anything." 「這是我肯定會考慮的事情，」Steinbrenner 說。「我會考慮任何可能性。」 Speaking to reporters later from Yankee Stadium, Boone brushed off any concerns about his lame duck status.* 隨後在洋基體育場接受媒體採訪時，Boone 對於自己合約即將到期（跛腳鴨狀態）的疑慮 一笑置之。 "Doesn't bother me at all," Boone said. "Again, we'll have guys, you know, players that are free agents to be at the end of the season. We'll have coaches potentially on expiring contracts, front office, all those things. That's life. That's part of it."* 「我一點也不在意，」Boone 說。「再說一次，你知道的，季末會有一些球員成為自由球 員。也會有教練、制球高層的合約即將到期，這些都很正常。這就是生活，這也是這份工 作的一部分。」 Boone has led the Yankees to the postseason in eight of his nine seasons. They've reached the World Series once, in 2024, and the AL Championship Series three times. His .583 winning percentage is tied for 17th in major league history. The Yankees, however, haven't won a championship since defeating the Philadelphia Phillies under manager Joe Girardi in 2009. Boone 在他執教的九個賽季中有八個賽季帶領洋基隊打進季後賽。他們曾在 2024 年打進 過一次世界大賽，並三次打進美聯冠軍賽。他 .583 的執教勝率在大聯盟歷史上並列第 17 位。然而，自從 2009 年在總教練 Joe Girardi 的帶領下擊敗費城人隊以來，洋基隊 就再也沒有贏得過總冠軍。 Steinbrenner, when asked if hitting coach James Rowson will return next season, said the team hasn't begun discussions about the coaching staff. 當被問及打擊教練 James Rowson 下賽季是否會留任時，Steinbrenner 表示球隊尚未開始 討論教練團的配置。 "I'm definitely focused on the offense and on the hitting," Steinbrenner said. "Because, again, I'll say it again for the last time, I think it was a big part of, certainly a significant, part of why we didn't achieve what we wanted to achieve." 「我絕對把焦點放在打擊與進攻上，」Steinbrenner 說。「因為，這是我最後一次重複 強調，我認為這絕對是我們未能實現預期目標的一個極其重要的主因。」 -- 「跛腳鴨」狀態（Lame Duck Status）是指一位即將卸任的外交、政治或組織領導人，在 任期將滿、接班人已選出（或即將選出）的過渡期間，所處於的一種權力與影響力大幅削 弱的政治狀態。 這個詞最常用於美國政治，特別是用來形容在 11 月總統大選結束後、至隔年 1 月新總 統正式宣誓就職之前的現任總統或國會。 --
