There was a lot to like about the 2011 Tigers team. Justin Verlander,
Miguel Cabrera and Alex Avila were among the best in baseball at their
respective positions, Detroit won 95 regular season games and they defeated
the Yankees in the Division Series. For the Tigers to return to the postseason
in 2012, they'll have to address questions on the infield and add depth to the
pitching staff.
2011年V少年,M.Cabrera and A.Avila皆有出色的表現
但2012年老虎想重回季後賽的話,必須解決內野的問題以及加強投手的深度
If the Tigers retain all of their arbitration eligible players except
non-tender candidate Brad Thomas and exercise Jose Valverde's option, as
expected, they'll have nearly $100MM in commitments for next year, not
including minimum salary players. Nine-figure payrolls are nothing new to the
Tigers. They’ve spent more than $100MM in payroll each of the past four
seasons, averaging $123MM since 2008. After spending $107MM in 2011 and
making a run to the ALCS, it wouldn't be surprising if owner Mike Ilitch
boosts payroll. Expect GM Dave Dombrowski to have the cash he needs to
address the Tigers' weaknesses.
最近的4個球季,老虎的薪資皆超過100M,從08年的123M到11年的107M
所以可以期待有足夠的cash可以補強陣容
Manager Jim Leyland got by without an everyday second baseman in 2011. He mixed
and matched Ryan Raburn, Ramon Santiago, Carlos Guillen and others, without
relying on any one player for more than 62 games at the position. Santiago and
Guillen both hit free agency this offseason, which leaves the Tigers with a
clear vacancy.
在2011年,李蘭爺爺一直找不到合適的二壘手。
當R.Santiago and C.Guillen成為FA後,二壘手將會是一個大空缺
Jamey Carroll, Mark Ellis, Aaron Hill and Kelly Johnson are among the
offseason's top available second basemen. Since the free agent market doesn't
offer much, the Tigers will likely explore trades for alternatives.
Blake DeWitt, Orlando Hudson, Maicer Izturis and Alberto Callaspo are among the
second base trade targets for Dombrowski to consider. All four players will
have new GMs this offseason, and though that doesn't mean they'll be on the
block, it could make them easier to obtain. It will take some creativity for
the Tigers to obtain an above-av
erage second baseman given the current options
at the position. If Dombrowski doesn't like the market at second base, he could
sign a shortstop to play second or simply re-sign Santiago and focus on the l
eft side of the infield.
J.Carroll, M.Ellis, A.Hill and K.Johnson 是目前市場上最好的二壘手人選
由於二壘FA的缺乏,可能透過交易取得B.DeWitt, O.Hudson, M.Izturis and A.Callaspo
或是重簽回R.Santiago
The team could also use help at third base, as Wilson Betemit hits free agency
and Brandon Inge doesn't provide enough offense for the position. The Tigers,
never a team to shy away from top free agents, could pursue Aramis Ramirez.
He'd keep Inge on the bench and add offense to a team that finished fourth in
MLB in runs scored. Signing Ramirez would likely require a two or three-year
commitment given the relatively weak class of free agent third basemen.
It won't cost a draft pick, though, and 19-year-old prospect Nick Castellanos
is not MLB-ready. The Tigers could be tempted to sign Jose Reyes and move
Jhonny Peralta back to third base, but an acquisition at second or third seems
more likely.
在W.Betemit成為FA以及B.Inge無法提供足夠火力下,老虎在三壘需要獲得一些幫助
A.Ramirez是個不錯的人選,不過需要付出一些代價
在N.Castellanos還沒準備好之前,老虎有可能簽下J.Reyes,然後將J.Peralta移防三壘
但相較起來,直接簽二壘手或是三壘手是比較可能的選項
There's been speculation that the Tigers could pursue top free agent starters,
such as C.C. Sabathia and Yu Darvish. While a starter of their caliber would
no doubt improve the Tigers' rotation, it's not clear whether Dombrowski has
serious interest in adding a top pitcher from the free agent market.
The rotation, which includes right-handers Verlander, Doug Fister, Max Scherzer
and Rick Porcello, only has one opening. Brad Penny will likely depart via free
agency and Phil Coke figures to stay in the bullpen, but the Tigers could give
2009 first rounder Jacob Turner an extended look in the rotation.
The 20-year-old struggled through three MLB starts this year,
but posted a 3.44 ERA with 7.6 K/9 and 2.4 BB/9 in 131 innings in the upper
minors. If the Tigers don't add a top free agent starter, they will likely
add an affordable arm or two to compete with Turner and Andy Oliver and provide
depth in case of an injury.
如果沒有簽下如CC或是達比修這類頂級先發的話
那麼可能要簽幾個SP,然後和J.Turner,A.Oliver一起競爭輪值的位置
Valverde, Joaquin Benoit, Phil Coke, Ryan Perry, Daniel Schlereth
and Al Alburquerque figure to contribute to the Tigers' bullpen in 2012.
Free agent Joel Zumaya could return on a minor league deal after missing the
entire season with a right elbow injury. With so many holdovers, there may be
concern about the 2011 bullpen's walk rate of 4.4 BB/9 -- the highest among
MLB 'pens. The Tigers will probably add at least one reliever this offseason
to supplement the existing group.
J.Valverde, J.Benoit, P.Coke, R.Perry, D.Schlereth and A.Alburquerque
將會是2012年老虎牛棚的要角,老虎預計將會補充至少一位RP來加強牛棚
The Magglio Ordonez era may be finished in Detroit, since the Tigers have
younger, more affordable options who lack Ordonez’s health concerns.
Austin Jackson has solidified his place in center field, Brennan Boesch posted
a .799 OPS before tearing a thumb tendon in September, and Raburn and Don Kelly
provide Leyland with depth. Delmon Young, who seemed destined for a non-tender
with the Twins, probably earned himself an arbitration offer from the Tigers
due to a strong finish. He hit eight home runs in the final six weeks of the
regular season and added five more homers in the playoffs.
M.Ordonez在老虎的時代可能已經中止。
A.Jackson已經證明自己在老虎的定位,而B.Boesch也在受傷之前打出OPS 0.799的好成績
R.Raburn and D.Kelly將會是李蘭爺爺手中的活棋
而D.Young則在季後賽的表現證明自己的能耐
The Tigers have six free agents, including three Type B players, but they won't
necessarily have extra draft picks in 2012. The risk that Zumaya and Ordonez
would accept arbitration likely outweighs the possible reward of the
supplemental pick. Betemit could be the lone candidate for an arbitration offer.
He earned just $1MM in 2011 while posting a .795 OPS, so the downside of
offering arbitration seems minimal. If he accepts, he's back on an affordable
one-year deal, and if he declines and signs elsewhere, the Tigers get a draft
pick. However, the Tigers already have Inge and Kelly under team control, so
they may decide against carrying three third base options.
由於2011年的表現,老虎可能不會對J.Zumaya and M.Ordonez提起仲裁
而另一名FA W.Betemit則因為三壘已經有B.Inge and D.Kelly的狀況下不考慮續簽
Alex Avila emerged as one of the game's top catchers this season, hitting 19
homers and posting a .295/.389/.506 line. Victor Martinez's knees prevented
him from catching after August 4th, but he has said he can catch again in 2012.
The Tigers will probably still want a third option behind the plate to reduce
their reliance on Martinez's knees.
講A.Avila的貢獻,然後V.Martinez的膝傷可能讓他無法長期負擔蹲捕
The Tigers may consider extensions for Avila and Jackson this offseason,
though both are four seasons away from free agency. There's no rush to lock
either player up.
可能會考慮和A.Avila and A.Jackson延長合約
Big name free agents such as Darvish and Reyes could have appeal for the Tigers,
but Detroit's most pressing offseason need exists at second base. If Dombrowski
can obtain a second baseman and add depth to his pitching staff, the Tigers
will enter the 2012 season as favorites to repeat in the AL Central.
達比修和J.Reyes經常出現在老虎隊的乳摸上,但老虎最緊要的位置是二壘
如果DD總管如果能在季後補強二壘以及加強投手的深度
那麼2012年老虎仍舊能複製今年美中冠軍的表現
英文不是很好,大家加減看一下 > <"
