Bradley says Beane 'used me up' in '06
前副會長指控豆子爺去年把他吃乾抹淨!
Perhaps this is what happens when a team performs below expectations,
but all is not sweetness and light around the A's these days.
貧賤夫妻百事哀,弱雞球隊唉哎哀
For several weeks, there has been a lot of grumbling in the clubhouse,
some directed toward manager Bob Geren, as the A's place in the
standings has plummeted. Then, former Oakland outfielder Milton Bradley
delivered a blistering assessment of A's general manager Billy Beane
in the Oakland Tribune on Saturday and he expounded on the topic in
an extensive conversation with The Chronicle.
幾個星期以來,檯面下有人對Geren放炮,上禮拜前副會長公然對豆子爺開砲!
"Billy just has a way of thinking he's smarter and better than
everyone else, and I don't take kindly to the better-than-you
attitude," Bradley said at Petco Park before the Giants played
the Padres on Saturday. "I don't think Billy cared about how I
was. He knew he could use me for cheap and get a lot out of me. ...
So he used me up last year and couldn't use me up any more.
He always told me, when you're out on the field, you make me
look good. I guess I wasn't out there to make him look good enough.
(重點部份要仔細)
「豆子擺出一副就是比其他人聰明的樣子,我受不了這樣"就是比妳好"的態度」,
前副會長在上禮拜六,對巨人賽前嘴巴也沒閒著,「我不覺得豆子關心我,他只想
他可以趁我便宜的時候,盡可能地把我榨出汁來,所以他去年死命地榨,現在
已經榨不出甚麼來了。他總是告訴我,當我在場上的表現,讓他看起來很厲害的
樣子,我猜我已經不再能讓他驕傲了吧。」
"I don't like to be lied to. Tell me the truth. You tell me I'm
not an everyday player, and I just have to laugh at you because
there's not a player they've got over there that's better than me.
It's just a joke."
「我不喜歡被騙!跟我說實話!跟我說我不是個夠格每天上場的球員?那我
只能笑你笨,因為你手上的球員沒有人比我好嘛,這真是個笑話。」
Beane said Saturday he does not wish to engage in a public debate
with Bradley and said only, "I wish him well, I wish him good luck.
That's really it. Milton is in a good situation."
豆子爺說....洩洩指教,副會長現在有好的歸屬。
Whereas the A's might not be.
而綠帽也許不是他的好歸屬。
With the reigning division champs falling out of contention, several
players have voiced dissatisfaction with first-year manager Geren
in the past week, though none would do so on the record because of
concerns about job security and playing time. Among other things,
one player described Geren as "wishy-washy" and another called him
"oblivious." Players who spoke to The Chronicle last week said that
Geren spends too much time in the clubhouse, he's overly friendly
with the players and he is so loath to be negative, one player said,
that he won't let a player have it when needed.
記者的好朋友 - 可靠來源指出,Geren優柔寡斷、健忘、只會當好好先生。
This comes less than a year after player disgruntlement contributed
to Macha losing his job as Oakland's manager, and Beane chalked it
up to frustration with losing.
"I certainly haven't heard it," Beane said of carping about Geren,
"but you have to be cognizant of the fact that we've had a very
difficult year with a lot of obstacles. It's been a challenge for
the players, the front office and the coaching staff. Chemistry is
built on success, everyone's success. We all get a little bit on
edge when things don't go as planned, and it's not unique to this team.
"It's hard to create camaraderie when you're near the all-time
record for injured players."
Geren's job is not in jeopardy, said Beane, in fact quite the
opposite. Considering the team has used the disabled list 19 times,
he said, the team's performance hasn't been all that poor.
豆子爺說沒聽到那些抱怨,而且輸球會不爽,正常啦,最後拿傷兵來幫Geren護航。
Mark Ellis said he'd heard some criticisms of Geren, but, the
well-respected second baseman said, "It's been a challenging year,
no doubt, and there are a lot of guys at the same positions in
the outfield and first base; that's never an easy situation and
Bob has done the best he can with the hand he's dealt.
"When you lose, everything gets magnified and not everyone is
going to like everything that's going on. But Bob's our manager
and I think he's done a good job. He's made mistakes - like
everyone in this clubhouse has made mistakes. And he's as good
a person as I've ever met in my life."
廣告之後,一定要找愛用者來背書,「我敢發誓,屈塵市最便宜。」
不過小愛打了豆子爺一槍,因為小愛有聽到那些抱怨...
Bradley doesn't feel the same way about Beane.
前副會長對豆子爺有不同的看法。
From the day Bradley was designated, June 21, there had been rumors of
a spat between Beane and Bradley during a June 20 meeting.
事發當天。
"He already made his mind up before we went into any kind of meeting,"
Bradley said. "He tells me, 'If I don't see you in the office before
you leave here today, then your bags are packed.' I called my agent
right then and there, 'Get on the horn, find some other team.
Because I don't want to be here any more.' "
「跟我討論前,他就已經做出決定了。」前副會長繼續放炮,「他跟我說『在
你今天離開這裡之前,我沒在辦公室看到你的話,你的行李將會被打包。』,
在那之後,我就跟我的經理人說『打電話,找其他的球隊,我已經不想再待在
這裡了。』。」
Later, according to several sources, Bradley yelled toward Beane,
"Get out of the clubhouse, no one wants you here. Everyone's sick
of you coming in here."
之後,根據多個記者的好朋友指出,前副會長對著豆子爺大吼:「滾出休息室,
沒有人想要你出現在這,每個人都對你出現在這感到厭煩。」
On Saturday, Bradley said, "I didn't appreciate a lot of people being
in the clubhouse. There were too many people in there. It's not big
enough for all that. Every time you look around, (Beane is) walking in
the clubhouse, and then he has a smart comment to say to somebody.
He told (Bobby) Kielty, 'Oh, you're stealing money.' Guys are working
hard. Nobody wants to be hurt. I guess he forgot about that because he
doesn't play anymore. It's just, every other day you come in the
clubhouse, all the doors to the training room are closed, the office
is closed, everything's a secret, and meetings all the time.
It just gets old."
前副會長說:「我不喜歡太多人在休息室,那邊有太多的人了,空間不夠大到容納
所有的人。每次你往四周看,豆子就在休息室裡走來走去,然後他會對人發表那種
自以為聰明的評論,他曾經跟Kielty說:『你這薪水小偷。』,大家都很努力,
沒有人想要受傷,我猜他已經忘記這些事,因為他自己並沒有打過甚麼球。每天來到
休息室,全部的門都是關著的,往訓練室的、辦公室的,每件事都是秘密,而且
總是在開會,這實在是老套了。」
Beane said that if Bradley yelled something at him, he didn't hear it.
He reiterated that Bradley was moved because his playing time was
going to drop off after he came off the DL.
豆子爺大概重聽了,他也沒聽到前副會長對他吼。
Perhaps the main reason Bradley was considered expendable was that
he could not stay healthy: He was on the DL five times in his year
and a half with Oakland.
丟掉前副會長的原因。
Bradley said during his meeting with Beane, "I just told him, 'I
didn't appreciate (manager) Bob Geren not telling me I was playing
until an hour before the game on the last day. I was told I wasn't
going to be activated until we went to New York, and then an hour
before the game all of a sudden I'm activated so you can designate
me, trade me or put me out there to show I can play so you can
trade me.' Then you try to push out to the fans that it's injuries
or I'm not an everyday player or all this stuff. If I play half
the season, I put up better numbers than anybody they got.
It's just nonsense."
(前副會長的抱怨還真多....這兩段簡單說就好)
前副會長抱怨球隊的調度很粗暴,賽前臨時才把他拿出傷兵名單,讓他措手不及,
害他被說成受傷打不好,或是不夠格每天上場。
Bradley hinted to the Oakland Tribune that there were other factors
involved in his departure, mentioning that other African American
players, such as Terrence Long, Chris Singleton, Jermaine Dye and
Frank Thomas also have moved on in recent years. Long and Singleton,
however, both had public disagreements with former manager Ken Macha
over playing time and communication, and Dye reportedly had a
strained relationship with Macha. Thomas left for Toronto because
he was offered more money and years there and he always has
said complimentary things about Beane.
前副會長暗示,有幾袋球、Dye和大痛是因為種族的關係才離開的。
(嗯....這個大絕招前副會長一定都要放一下的)
Shannon Stewart, the A's remaining African American player,
said, "All I can say is that Billy Beane has given me an
opportunity to play when most teams wouldn't. I don't think it's
a black/white issue. I'm here playing and Billy has been good to me."
又一個路人背書,香濃說豆子爺很好。
A's get two hits and good pitching to beat Angels.
