※ 引述《subaru (June Rod A)》之銘言:
: SUPERMAN A-ROD IN LINE FOR $30 MILLION A YEAR
: FROM:NEW YORK POST
: http://0rz.tw/372Nq
超人A-ROD正等著三千萬的年薪
: June 18, 2007 -- IT is easy to forget now in the fusillade of more homers,
: more RBIs, more greatness that Alex Rodriguez actually slumped for nearly
: a month this season.
隨著更多全壘打、更多打點、更多偉大時刻的連續出現,很容易讓人忘記A-ROD實際上
經歷了本季近一個月的低潮。
: Yet embedded in that slump were signs that Rodriguez would not only come
: out in a powerful way, but that this season is so much different than
: last; that this version of Alex Rodriguez can have a bad streak and it is
: nothing more than that. Sometimes a slump is just a slump, even for A-Rod.
然而隱含在這低潮中所象徵的,是A-ROD不只將強力走出來,而且本季也跟去年大大的
不同。今年版的A-ROD也是會表現不好,那沒有什麼。有時候低潮只是低潮,即使是A-ROD。
: “He was just a major league player going through a tough period,” hitting
: coach Kevin Long said.
「他只是一個從艱困時期走出來的一個大聯盟選手而已。」 打擊教練Kevin Long說道。
: The tough period is most definitely over. A-Rod is again chasing history,
: another MVP award and, perhaps, the first $30 million annual contract. He
: set the tone for a Yankee rout last night with a two-run homer in the first
: inning off Orlando Hernandez.
那艱困時期很明顯已經過去了。A-ROD又再度地追逐歷史、另一座MVP、也許還有第一份
年薪三千萬的合約。
他昨晚在第一局面對公爵敲出了2分打點的全壘打,帶領洋基擊潰對手。
: In an 8-2 Yankee victory over the disheveled Mets, he also lifted a
: sacrifice fly, walked, doubled and possibly headed afterward to the Daily
: Planet to meet up with Lois Lane.
在洋基以8:2擊敗大都會的這場勝利中,他也擊出了高飛犧牲打、二壘安打,並獲得了
保送,而且可能隨後前往每日星球與 Lois Lane見面。(Lois Lane是超人的情人吧?)
: In his last 28 games, Rodriguez has 12 homers and 34 RBIs. That is more
: homers than any Yankee has all season and as many RBIs as Bobby Abreu. Yet
: it is the 22 games that came before this stretch that accentuates his
: season.
在他最近的28場比賽,A-ROD貢獻了12轟與34分打點。全壘打數比任何洋基人整季還多(?)
而打點則跟阿布一樣多。
然而,在他這階段的突出表現之前,有22場比賽(不是那麼理想)。
: In that span, Rodriguez managed just one homer, five RBIs and hit .225. But
: here is the thing, as opposed to last year, Rodriguez’s whole game did
: not sink with his offense. Rodriguez’s defense has been so much better
: than in 2007, those 22 games included. He did not take his offensive
: failures into the field, symbolic that he was not being mentally
: overwhelmed by the struggles.
在那段時間,A-ROD只擠出了1發全壘打,5分打點跟.225的打擊率。
但,事情是這樣的,跟去年相反的,A-ROD並不因打擊的低潮而影響整場的表現。
他的防守比2007年好多了(應該是2006年吧?),包括那22場比賽。他沒有因攻擊的失敗
影響到他的守備,這象徵了他心理上沒有因為那些低潮而被打倒。
: Why did A-Rod fall into that slump? He had authored a Ruth-ian start:
: 14 homers, 34 RBIs and a .400 average in his first 18 games.
: Nevertheless, the Yanks were just 8-10 because just about no one else was
: hitting. Rodriguez earnestly began to try to carry a reeling team. The
: counteraction was that opposing pitchers hardly threw strikes. A-Rod was
: chasing and came out of the good swing/groove that had delineated his
: awesome opening act.
為什麼A-ROD會有這樣的低潮?他用貝比魯斯式的方法開季:
在前18場比賽夯了14轟,34打點,跟.400的打擊率。
不過洋基的戰績卻只有8勝10敗,只因為隊上沒有其他人打得出去。
A-ROD開始認真地想要一肩扛起飄搖的球隊戰績。反作用是,對方的投手幾乎都不投好球。
導致A-ROD開始追打壞球,讓他偏離了開季以來的好的揮擊。
: ꄊ: "I got myself out and I had to make an adjustment and accept the walks,”
: A-Rod said.
A-ROD說:「是我讓自己出局的,我應該調整心態,讓自己可以接受保送。」
: He re-invested in his teammates, putting faith Yankees who had always hit
: before would hit again. He began accepting base on balls, and if you
: follow the genesis of this latest sizzle, A-Rod walked before he ran off
: this tear.
A-ROD重新信賴隊友,相信之前總是可以打出去的隊友們,一定可以再度打出去。
他開始接受保送。假如你注意他最近火熱表現之始,他是先有保送然後再開始發飆的。
: ꄊ: " To me, even when he was not living up to April, he still looked relaxed,"
: Joe Torre said.
Torre說:「對我而言,即使他不像四月那樣的表現時,他看起來仍然很放鬆。」
: In fact, Torre said this fiery period is more impressive than April
: because Rodriguez did not let a chilly phase unnerve him. Instead, A-Rod
: now has 27 homers and 73 RBIs. He is on pace for a 65-homer, 177-RBI season.
: Do you wonder what that might mean on the open market? I bet Scott Boras
: does.
事實上,Torre說這一段高潮比起四月來,更讓人印象深刻,因為此時A-ROD手感不好時,
也不會焦慮了。取而代之的,A-ROD現在累積27轟跟73分打點,正朝向65轟,177打點邁進。
你想知道這在自由球員市場是什麼意思嗎?我打賭 $cott Bora$一定知道。
: In the May 22 edition of LA Weekly, A-Rod’s agent was quoted as saying,
: “I’ve said it before - there’s going to be a $30 million-per-year
: contract. I don’t know when, but there will be one, because baseball
: revenue will keep growing, and I’m all about the percentage of revenues.”
A-ROD的經紀人在5月22日出版的洛城週刊被引述說:
「我以前說過了,將會有三千萬美元的年薪出現,我不知道什麼時候,但即將會有了,
因為棒球的收入持續增加,我只是就收入的百分比說的。」
: Well, Boras has just one client who can pursue that and it is the one
: already making a record $27 million a year, the one on pace for a 65-homer
: season.
呃,Bora$ 只有一個客戶能夠追逐這個目標,而這個人已經領了創紀錄的2700萬年薪了,
而這傢伙也正朝向一季65轟的目錄前進。
: Rodriguez can opt out after this season, and the strong feeling around
: baseball and within the Yankee organization is Rodriguez will do just that.
: It is just so interesting that in the season in which he has most
: conclusively proven he can handle New York, Rodriguez can escape.
A-ROD能夠在本球季結束後選擇跳脫,而整個棒球界跟洋基球團有強烈的感覺,
就是A-ROD將會這樣做。
只是有趣的是,他最有可能在紐約證明自己的這個球季,他可以選擇離開。
: In fact, Boras will probably use that as negotiating leverage: Look,
: there is no Kryptonite for this player any more. His current hot streak,
: after all, came in the same period as front-page revelations involving
: Rodriguez and a woman not his wife.
事實上,Bora$ 很可能利用這點當成談判的手段:請注意,這傢伙已經沒有剋星了。
(ps.氪是超人的剋星,指的是紐約吧...)
畢竟,他目前火熱的表現跟那個不是他老婆的女人,同一時期佔據了報紙的頭條。
: Nothing seemingly can stop Rodriguez now. He has somehow found a way to
: funnel out all that used to nibble at his psyche and skills. It is now
: just him, that TNT swing and the baseball. And, for most of 2007, the
: baseball world hasn’t stood a chance.
現在似乎沒有什麼事可以阻擋A-ROD了。他某種程度找到了可以宣洩的管道,
過去那曾經蠶食他精神跟球技的種種。
現在,他就只是他,那爆炸性的揮棒跟棒球。而且,對2007的大半年,
棒球界還沒有什麼希望。(?)(最後一句不太懂)
