: What the Nick Johnson Deal Would Mean for the Yankees
簽下Nick Johnson對洋基的意義
: By TYLER KEPNER
: The Yankees are on the verge of reaching a contract agreement with Nick
: Johnson, which would mean losing Johnny Damon and Hideki Matsui in the same
: week. Matsui has already signed with the Angels, and the Yankees’ deal with
: Johnson (for one year and about $5.5 million) would give them a new No. 2
: hitter and designated hitter.
洋基即將完成與Nick Johnson的合約簽訂(按:只差體檢),這也表示洋基將在一週內
同時失去大門和松井,松井已經投向天使的懷抱了,而簽下Johnson(1年5.5M)給了洋基
一個新的2棒DH。
: Losing Damon will hurt. Even General Manager Brian Cashman acknowledged on
: Thursday that Damon is “the perfect two-hole hitter for this place.” The
: Yankees will miss Damon’s speed, his quality at-bats and his ability to put
: the bat on the ball. And they will miss his personality, of course.
失去大門讓人痛,GM Cashman前幾天也說過:「大門是我們最好的二棒人選。」。洋基
會想念他的速度,穩定的打擊和擊球的能力,當然,還有他這個人。
: But the Yankees priced Damon at about $9-10 million per year, for two years
: at the most, and they believe they can live with Johnson.
洋基曾開給大門每年9-10M,最長兩年的合約,不過他們相信有Johnson也是不錯的
(這段不確定意思,是說只有Johnson也ok還是同時有大門和Johnson也ok,還請指教)
: Johnson’s assets and drawbacks are obvious. The good: he’s a left-handed
: hitter, he knows the Yankees and he got on base at a better rate last year
: (.426) than everybody except Joe Mauer and Albert Pujols. The bad: he’s
: slow, he’s prone to injury, and he plays a position already occupied by Mark
: Teixeira.
Johnson的優缺點很明顯。
優點:左打,對洋基很熟悉,09年OBP在大聯盟排名第三(.426),只輸給貓兒(.444)和
撲猴子(.443)。
缺點:有點慢,有點痛痛,而且他的守備位子上已經有一個鐵爺了。
: Then again, by keeping Johnson off the field, the Yankees can limit his risk
: of injury, and there is no rule that says Johnson would have to be the
: starting D.H. every day. The Yankees could use Jorge Posada, Alex Rodriguez,
: Derek Jeter and Teixeira there as often as they like. Johnson, a
: happy-go-lucky guy, has been itching to play for a winner since the Yankees
: traded him to the Montreal Expos (remember them?) after the 2003 World Series.
把Johnson擺在DH不上場守備可以降低痛痛的機會,不過也不一定要讓他天天站DH。還
有波波,A-Rod,隊長和鐵爺可以站,愛怎麼輪就怎麼輪(小Q:Q___Q)。自從03年世
界大賽之後被洋基賣給博覽會隊(還記得他們嗎?)之後,Johnson就非常渴望能替一
支會贏球的隊伍打球。
: Also, there is this: next year’s free-agent class could be the best ever,
: with Josh Beckett, Carl Crawford, Cliff Lee, Joe Mauer, Brandon Webb and
: Jayson Werth -– not to mention Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera. The Yankees
: figure to spend an awful lot of money in that market, and they want to save
: payroll and keep commitments short wherever they can.
明年的FA市場可能會是最有看頭的一次:北極,Carl Crawford,小李飛刀,貓兒,蛇
王和Jayson Werth都可能在列,更不用提隊長和Mo了。可以想見洋基明年需要灑非常大
的一筆錢出來,所以希望今年能省一點,簽一些小而美的約。
: In the big picture, the Yankees are replacing Johnny Damon and Hideki Matsui
: with Curtis Granderson and Johnson. So they swap two older left-handed
: hitters who made $26 million in 2009 for two younger left-handed hitters who
: will make about $14 million in 2010. They replace a speed guy and a slow guy
: with another speed guy and slow guy.
整體來看,洋基用Granderson和Johnson取代了大門和松井。這表示兩個老左打($26M 09)
變成兩個年輕左打($14M 10),一快一慢換一快一慢。
: Is it perfect? Of course not. But that is the rationale, as I understand it.
: And because they had $9 million or so budgeted for Damon, the Yankees have
: more room in the 2010 payroll to chase another pitcher. Will it be Ben
: Sheets? Aroldis Chapman? Someone else? Right now, that seems to be the final
: significant piece in the Yankees’ plan for next season.
這樣子的改變完美嗎?當然不完美,不過是可以接受的。而且有鑑於洋基本來替大門留
了約9M的薪資空間,現在洋基還有一些空間可以再盤一個投手過來,Sheets?Chapman?
或是其他人?現在,這個人選應該是明年陣容的最後一片拼圖了。
