原文43 這篇主要分享Devers交易案的一些後續值得觀察的點，有些可能幾年後才會有結論，但是都蠻有趣的。文章引用自MLB官網。出處： https://reurl.cc/Z4mk6V 5 takeaways from the shocking Devers deal Rafael Devers … is a Giant? The Red Sox just … sent him away? This is the so rt of deal that you don’t really see that much in baseball anymore: It almost feels like more of an NBA trade, doesn’t it? It sure had the shock of one. I t’s one of those trades that makes your jaw drop. Though, like many great tra des, the more you start to think about it … the more sense it kind of makes. But it is a massive risk, really, for everyone involved. Here are five off-the -cuff, back-of-napkin takeaways from one of the most unexpected, seemingly out -of-nowhere baseball trades in many a moon. 雖然這筆交易並不是那麼完全地空穴來風，但是他發生得這麼快又醞釀地這麼保密還是讓蠻多人都嚇一跳。但...今年看過Luka都可以被小犢交易後，真的有種看到啥交易都不覺得稀奇的心情了。總之或許以後還是需要花點時間習慣看Devers穿巨人球衣打球，把球都打到右外野大牆後方的水裡吧。 1) The Giants have their star. 巨人總算得到他們夢寐以求的球星了。 They went after Aaron Judge. They went after Shohei Ohtani. They went after Ca rlos Correa (and briefly got him). And they fell short every time. The Giants roster, really since the Buster Posey playing era ended, has felt like a bunch of quality supporting players surrounding a void where a star was supposed to be. 巨人追過法官，追過大谷，也追過Correa（並且炸胡短暫在一起過）。但他們似乎總是差那麼臨門一腳。自從Posey退休之後，總感覺巨人隊總是充滿著一堆綠葉球員，但就是少了一個招牌球星。（這句是原文，無意引戰。） Well: That star is here now. (And it apparently took Posey to get him.) You ra rely see stars of this caliber being traded, and you definitely never seem the m traded when they’re as hot as Devers is right now. Devers is a fantastic hi tter, and has been for quite a few years, but he is in fact better right now t han he has ever been. He has put up the highest OPS-plus of his career (149), his OBP is an all-time-best .401, he leads the AL in walks (56) and he has bee n the rock of a Red Sox offense that has a lot of young players and is missing their top offseason acquisition in Alex Bregman. He is an absolute stud, one who is still only 28 years old. The Giants have been desperate for someone to build around. He’s now here. 現在巨人總算得到他們想要的人了。（還是透過Posey才得到他的，巨星傳承？）很少有機會看到這種等級的球星在球季的這個時候被交易。今年Devers目前的產出其實比起他過往的成績都還要優秀，不管是OPS+、OBP、或是獲得美聯最多的保送都是如此。而且他才2 8，即將邁入巔峰的年紀，是巨人可以圍繞建隊的球星了。 2) That is a very expensive DH. Devers是一個有點貴的DH。 That’s what he is, right? Right? The Giants just gave Matt Chapman a big cont ract extension, so obviously third base is booked for years to come, and, well , while the Giants certainly need a first baseman -- it’s Dominic Smith now a fter LaMonte Wade Jr. was sent to Anaheim -- well, if you want to be the perso n in the Giants front office to have that conversation with him on his first d ay in town, please, feel free. 他目前就只是一個DH，對吧？巨人才剛給Chappy一個很大張的延長合約，看起來現在跟未來的三壘應該都是交給他才對。尤其交易走Lamonte Wade Jr.之後，巨人其實蠻需要一個一壘手的（現在是Dominic Smith在墊檔...）但...如果你想要在Devers人來舊金山屁股都還沒坐熱的時候就開始跟他聊守一壘的事情的話，請便（？ For Devers’ current production, the $31.35 million he's getting paid is well worth it. But will it be well worth it in 2033, which is when that contract fi nally ends? When he’s in his late 30s? Now that Devers is locked into DH, he ’ll be there for a long, long time. This is what the Red Sox were worried abo ut, with the positional issues the only reason they ever thought about trading him in the first place. Those worries are now the Giants’. 以他現在的打擊產出來看，他的年薪其實是匹配甚至是超值的。但等到2033的時候這個年薪還是值得的嗎？那時候的Devers已經37，尤其在他28的時候就已經只能窩在DH，你很難不去擔心這些。至少紅襪就是這麼想的。但這些現在都已經是巨人要去煩惱的事情了。 3) The Red Sox better hope this doesn’t end up feeling like the Mookie trade. 紅襪應該不希望看到這筆交易的結果跟當年他們送走木屐一樣。 We might end up having “Is Rafael Devers on a Hall of Fame path?” discussion s over the next few years, depending on how healthy he can stay, but if he doe s end up making the Hall, well, it’s going to be pretty wild that the Red Sox -- not the Marlins, not the Expos, the Red Sox -- traded away two future Hall of Famers over a five-year stretch. Now, obviously, the circumstances are dif ferent. Devers將來會是一位名人堂球星嗎？如果是的話，這蠻有可能是紅襪在5年內連續交易走兩個名人堂球星。當然，時空背景是略有不同啦。 Betts is a better player, there are different people in charge, the Red Sox ha ve certainly shown they’re willing to spend, and Devers didn’t exactly endea r himself to the organization of late. But considering one of the reasons they gave Devers such a big extension in 2023 was because of fan frustration that they had traded Betts … well, shipping him away three years later has, how do they say, bad optics. 木屐是一位更好更全面的球星（吧。紅襪的管理層也不同，紅襪雖然一直以來都是願意花錢的球隊，但是近期發生的事情不得不讓紅襪高層開始思考Devers是否如他們原本所思考的那樣適合紅襪。但紅襪高層當初續約Devers的原因之一，就是因為當初送走木屐讓很多紅襪球迷心生不滿。雖然現在送走他，未必會比當初不續約還要更能夠獲得球迷諒解啦.. . Also, what does this tell young Red Sox stars like Roman Anthony and Marcelo M ayer? Are they going to get early extensions? Will they even want one? Will th ey trust they will really stay if they do? 然後更重要的是，這筆交易傳達了什麼樣的訊息給Roman Anthony跟Marcelo Mayer這樣的新生代球員？他們會有機會獲得提前的延長合約嗎？或是他們會想要跟紅襪簽嗎？如果他們簽了，他們真的覺得自己會在波士頓待很長一段時間嗎？ 4) Alex Cora just got a lot more pressure on himself. Cora現在應該感到壓力山大。 There is always a healthy discussion about what the job of a manager is in tod ay’s analytical front office world. Are they just guys who make out the lineu ps and talk to the press? Are they really in charge? How much power do they ac tually have? There’s one thing everyone agrees is really important, though: R unning a happy clubhouse. You know: managing. It might not have been Cora’s d ecision to keep asking (or not asking) Devers to switch (and not switch) posit ions, but you can make a good argument that it’s his job to massage the situa tion in a way that does not have the team’s star player (who, again, is crush ing the ball right now) at such odds with the front office that they trade him away. 關於總仔的職責一直是一個沒有定論且開放式回答的議題。他們是負責決定先發還有跟媒體講幹話的人，還是他們是真的有決策權，他們到底在這支球隊裡面的話語權有多少，這些都是因隊而異的。但有一點是責無旁貸的：讓休息室的氣氛活絡且良好。或許並不是Co ra需要去跟Devers溝通改變守備位置的問題，但必須說他是可以讓Devers跟紅襪高層之間溝通更順暢的少數人選。 This has already been an up-and-down start for these Red Sox. We have seen thi s front office and ownership group be, well, let’s say “tempestuous,” or ma ybe “reactionary.” Cora has to figure out how to be the public face of the o rganization, to show that he can run a happy clubhouse and to win … which he ’s now going to have to do without his best hitter. Cora必須要知道如何去應對外界對於紅襪的疑慮、批評、以及讚揚。但同時他也必須確保休息室的氛圍是好的，是能夠讓球隊去贏下比賽的。現在Cora將要在失去隊上最好球員的情況下，嘗試去完成這些任務。 5) This is already the trade of the Deadline. (Right?) 交易大限前不會出現比這個更有料的交易了吧？ I know a lot of people who thought the biggest name that would be moved at the July 31 Trade Deadline would be Sandy Alcantara. Surprise! It’s the middle o f June, and it’s tough to see how there could possibly be a bigger deal than the one we just witnessed. (I mean, it would be a big deal if Jordan Hicks got traded on his own, and I didn’t even bother mentioning his involvement in th is trade until just now.) We’re going to spend so much time discussing trade possibilities for the next few weeks, and in a fevered rush in the days leadin g up to the Deadline. But how in the world are we going to top this? It’s sor t of impossible to imagine. Then again: It was sort of impossible to imagine t his trade too. And here we are. 應該一堆人原本都以為今年交易大限前被交易的big name應該就是魚王Sandy Alcantara 了吧？但現在才六月中，你也很難想像有什麼會比交易Devers更有料的交易在今年的大限前出現了。接下來幾週本該是密集討論各種交易可能性的時間，但到底要怎麼產生一筆更猛更值得討論的交易？但如果Devers（還有Luka）都可以被交易了的話還有什麼不可能的勒？ —————————————————————————— https://i.imgur.com/Y4k4OJD.jpeg
