※ 引述《subaru (高統襪的神秘力量)》之銘言： : Call him Stay-Rod 叫他 Stay-Rod : Loves N.Y. but won't nix opting out : BY MARK FEINSAND : DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER : Wednesday, April 25th 2007, 4:00 AM : http://tinyurl.com/2qngfq : ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Alex Rodriguez's start has surely opened eyes : around the majors, and with the opt-out clause that he can exercise at : the end of the year, several teams are surely thinking about how much : money they can throw at the two-time MVP this winter. A-Rod 今年開季以來的表現讓大家大開眼界, 加上他有可能在球季結束後行使選擇權而成為自由球員, 想必現在必定有許多隊伍正在思考著今年冬天有多少錢可以拿來競爭這位兩度 MVP獎得主. : Of course, first he has to opt out. Yesterday, speaking about the subject : for the first time since mid-March, A-Rod stated that he has no plans to : leave New York "no matter what." 當然, 想要得到 A-Rod的第一個條件是他選擇要離開洋基. 但在昨天, A-Rod被問到這個話題時(這是自三月中以來第一次), 他表示無論如何他都不想要離開洋基. : Despite those sentiments, Rodriguez has repeatedly refused to say he will : not opt out, choosing instead to express his love for New York. 但同時當 A-Rod被問到(明年)是否保證會留在洋基時, 他總是用一些他有多喜歡紐約之類的話來帶過. : "I've always thought that, even when I was really bad last year," Rodriguez : said before his 23-game (counting last season) hitting streak was snapped : with a 0-for-3 performance in last night's 6-4 loss to the Devil Rays. A-Rod說:"其實我一直都在考慮這的問題, 甚至從去年表現很差得時候就開始想了." (他在昨天晚上對魔鬼魚的比賽三個打數沒有安打, 中止了他跨季連續23場安打的紀錄, 同時球隊也以4-6敗給魔鬼魚.) : "I still thought it was the best place for me. I've never been a guy that : just runs away from my bad play; that's the way I am. Things haven't : changed. 他繼續說:"而考慮的結果是: 洋基是我最想要待的球隊. 我不會因為表現不佳而逃跑... 那不是我的作風. 我一直都是這樣." (tzh:這段我不大確定他的意思.) : "I told you last year that I loved New York, and people thought I was : insane. I kept saying it this winter, and I know I had opportunities to : do things, but I love New York. It's the greatest place for me to play. : "I want to stay in New York. No matter what." " 我去年就說過我愛紐約, 當時大家都覺得我瘋了, 但我會一直說著這句話. 雖然我不敢保證我明年一定會留在這裡, 但我愛紐約, 這是不會錯的. 對我而言這是打球最棒的地方, 無論如何我都想待在紐約." A-Rod說. : This isn't the first time that Rodriguez has played with a contract : issue hanging over his head. He entered 2000 with one year remaining : before free agency, but he hit .316 with 41 homers and 132 RBI for the : Mariners that year, helping him land his $252 million pact from the : Rangers. 現在這種處境對 A-Rod來說不是第一次了. 2000年是 A-Rod在水手隊的最後一年, 那一年他繳出了打擊率 .316, 41發全壘打和132分打點的成績,使得他在隔年獲得2億5200萬美元的天價合約. : "I've dealt with this before; to me, it's really no big deal," Rodriguez : said. "If you had asked me this when I was in Seattle my last year, I : would have given you a three-paragraph answer. I'm just loving playing : the game." A-Rod 說:"我以前就碰過這樣的情況了, 這真的沒什麼大不了. 如果你在2000年我在西雅圖時問我這些問題, 我可以跟你講一長串. 但對我而言我只是一直在享受打球的樂趣." : Since the start of spring training, Joe Torre has sensed a comfort level : for Rodriguez that he didn't see over their first three seasons together. : Whatever the reason for it, the manager hopes to have him in pinstripes : beyond this season. 從春訓開始, Torre就感覺到 A-Rod的狀況比過去三個球季都還要來得好. Torre希望球季結束後 A-Rod能繼續待在洋基. : "Ability-wise, we certainly want him here," Joe Torre said. "Sitting in : the middle of our lineup and making the statement he is right now, we : certainly don't want him to go anywhere....I have no idea, but I'd like : to believe he's going to be here." Torre 說:"我們當然希望他留下來, 展現他的天賦, 坐鎮我們的中心打線. 我不知道... 但我寧可相信他將會留下來." : Rodriguez is off to the best start of his career - possibly anybody's : career - through the first 19 games. His 14 home runs are tied with Albert : Pujols for the most ever hit in April, and he has 34 RBI. He reached 14 : homers faster than any player in history. He has three multi-homer games : and two walk-off home runs. 今年是 A-Rod個人職業生涯打得最好的開季...可能也沒有人像他打得這麼好過. 他在頭 19場比賽中擊出了14發全壘打(其中有兩發是再見全壘打),追平了Pujols的四月全壘打紀錄, 他是大聯盟史上最快擊出14發全壘打的人.另外還貢獻了34分打點, 還有三次單場雙響炮的紀錄. : But with last night's defeat, Rodriguez and the Yankees lost their fifth : straight, dropping into last in the AL East. 但昨晚輸球以後, 洋基吞下了五連敗, 在美聯東區墊底. : "It's hard for me to get into what's happening with me when I'm so consumed : with what's happening with the team," Rodriguez said before the game. A-Rod在賽前說:"在我找出球隊面臨的問題之前, 我沒辦法去想自己的事情." : "I'm the kind of guy who doesn't really appreciate what's going on at the : time." : What does he credit for his run? Don't ask. A-Rod說: "我是那種不太在意現在發生什麼事的人." 所以不要問他打算讓他的棒子持續發燙到哪時候. (tzh:不太確定他的意思.) : "I can't explain it," Rodriguez said. "I know you guys are frustrated and : looking for some profound answer, but I don't have one. I'm having as : much fun as I can, trying to keep it simple, and I really don't give a -- : -- about what most people are thinking or saying." A-Rod 說:"我沒辦法解釋, 我知道你們想要一些有深度的答案, 但我沒有. 我只是喜歡盡情享受比賽的樂趣, 把事情簡單化, 不去在意別人在想什麼或說什麼." : That may be the biggest difference for A-Rod, who is notorious for : thinking too much about what people are saying about him. This year, he : has taken to losing himself to his iPod moments after arriving at the : ballpark, choosing to allow his talent to speak for itself. 這可能就是 A-Rod今年最大的不同之處, 因為他從前很在意別人怎麼談論他. 而在今年他到球場後就專心聽他的iPod, 讓他的表現來為他說話. : So far, the results are staggering. 到目前為止, 成效驚人. : "Last year taught me a lot about reality and perception; that it's really : not that important," he said. "What's important is that you love to play : the game, that you play the game with respect and that everybody in your : uniform respects what you're doing." A-Rod 說:"去年讓我學到很多如何東西: 就是觀眾怎麼看你並不重要, 重要的是你喜不喜歡打球, 是否盡了你的能力, 還有能不能得到隊友的尊重." : How far can A-Rod carry this momentum? Nobody knows, but he surely won't : keep up his current pace, which projects to 119home runs and 290 RBI. Can : he challenge Barry Bonds' single-season homer mark of 73? Ask him in : August. A-Rod 還能熱多久?...沒人知道. 但是可以確定的是不會像這樣子熱到球季結束, 不然他會有119發全壘打和290分的打點. 那他能挑戰 Bonds單季73發全壘打的紀錄嗎? 到八月的時候再問他吧! : "I've been in streaks like this before; you just try to prolong it as : long as possible and enjoy it," Rodriguez said. "Let's see how far we : can fly, then I can tell you. I'm in the middle of flight right now, so : I don't want to talk about it." A-Rod 說:"我以前也有這樣棒子發燙過, 這時我所需要做的事就是盡可能讓棒子熱下去, 我現在沒辦法告訴你我能夠熱到何時, 等我停下來的時候就能告訴你了." -- 有很多地方我都不太確定意思, 照自己的猜測翻, 如果有翻不好或翻不對的地方請見諒也請指教, 謝謝! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.251.179
