※ 引述《leddy (耿秋)》之銘言： BA 的報導(僅節錄與洋基有關的部份) WINNERS Thaaaa Yankees: No John Sterling call necessary. The Yankees did what many clubs feared they might do: Flex their financial muscle in the draft and sign whoever they want, for whatever they want to pay. The Yankees spent more than $7.4 million in bonuses to sign their picks in the first 10 rounds, with even more committed to first-round pick Andrew Brackman in the form of a major league contract. 洋基拿錢砸新秀, 大家都怕怕 That said, giving so much money to Brackman may not work out. But the Yankees are unique in that they can absorb such mistakes with little consequence. Remember Cuban defector Andy Morales ($4.5 million), or Japanese pitcher Kats Maeda ($1.5 million)? Neither do the Yankees. 鈔票多的是, 養不起來也無所謂. Andy Morales 和前田勝宏, 這兩個人是誰啊? Scott Boras Corp.: The draft may have been held in Orlando this year, but the road to getting the top talent went through Newport Beach, Calif., home base of Boras Corp. Not every client got the top-end contract he was seeking, but no one controlled the days leading up to the deadline more than Boras. The Royals and Orioles signed the Boras clients they wanted, and didn't pay $17 million for them . . . but they still spent $10 million for Mike Moustakas and Matt Wieters. And then there's the Andrew Brackman contract, which could end up paying him more than $13 million–to a pitcher who's having Tommy John surgery and has never thrown more than 78 innings in a season. Speaking of which . . . Boras 賺翻了 Andrew Brackman: How exactly did a player with his resume–elbow injury, overrated basketball skills, fewer than 150 career college innings, and post-surgery pro debut of late '08 or 2009–get a major league contract with a $3.35 million bonus, guarantee of $4.55 million, possible contract of eight figures? He's probably the biggest winner of the whole draft. Brackman 也簽了不可思議的合約(養不起來可以賣給 Knicks 嗎?) -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 203.204.205.201 ※ 編輯: birdy590 來自: 203.204.205.201 (08/17 15:46)
