Re: [新聞] Yankees’ Teixeira: Behind Flashy Co …
※ 引述《Belladonaa ()》之銘言:
: 今年9月Nick Cafardo訪問Teixeira時問到此事,Teixeira回應:
: "That was the greatest decision of my life, both professionally and
: personally,"
: "It was made very clear to me that I wasn't ready for pro baseball. The
: business of it is something I completely understand now, but as an
: 18-year-old kid it was completely unfair.
: Teixeira當時並不明白選秀策略,現在看起來再平常不過,紅襪今年在「第20輪」
: 選了高中生Alex Meyer,開了「$2M」的簽約金,被Boras拒絕。
所謂的選秀策略現在看起來其實很簡單阿,就是有錢的球隊(不管是用放話還是放
消息)讓其他球隊以為某個有天份的high schooler想念大學,然後等到其他窮球隊縮手
的後面順位自己選,再用大筆(有時候比首輪給的還多)的簽約金把球員誘惑到聯盟。
從下面的文字看起來,Teix講的business 應該指的就是這件事。
: 回到 Teixeira:
: "I got to go to college and have the three best years of my life. And I can't
: complain on how my career has turned out. I was upset about it for a couple
: of weeks, but then I started getting into college, and once I stepped on the
: campus of Georgia Tech, I knew it was meant to be."
: Teixeira recalled, "[The Red Sox] treated us very poorly. It's something I
: tell high school kids who are going to be drafted that you've got to be ready
: for the business. Unfortunately, that's the way we were treated after I got
: drafted, and that's the reason I didn't sign with the Red Sox. We never
: sought or asked for an apology, but like I said, it was the best thing that
: ever happened to me."
這邊就有點說文解字了,我覺得對Teix來說,他對高中畢業的那個選秀,紅襪的
做法是有些不滿的。當你說we never sought for an apology, 其實暗示的意思是we
are entitled to ask for one, (至少在當年他是不爽的),但他也說,等到他進了
聯盟之後,他也才漸漸明白,這種操作,就跟在arbitration上球隊要舉證球員那邊不
行一樣,就純粹是生意而已。這也就是為什麼他會勸高中生要懂得職業運動的運作。
另外,我不同意Boras一開始就沒給紅襪跟Nats機會。相反的,我覺得在Cashman
搞來Swisher的同時,Boras就應該明白這個交易Yanks應該只能當備案。以Cashman的
個性,他在FA Signing上其實是個謹慎但又懂得趁機偷襲的人。當年Damon的case就是
如此,用限時offer把人搶走。
我覺得,Cashman一開始的規劃就是搶CC加一隻其他的投手,找來Swisher則是讓
自己免於被Boras牽著走,哄抬今年最大尾FA的game之中。而在簽下CC + AJ之後,
Cashman應該本來是打算放假去的。之所以Cashman回場丟offer也是來自Henry的那句
we are out. 那句話一方面讓Boras意識到BOS打算用一口價把Teix喊死,因為BOS認為
自己是當時在場中最有出價能力的買方。另一方面Boras也明白,要是他再回頭找BOS,
人家都已經高姿態了,再去巴大腿錢也不用談了,沒有籌碼,所以,Boras才會回頭找
NYY,也在NYY給出一個高於先前看到的所有價碼的合約下,攔糊。
要說這中間誰犯了錯,我覺得紅襪實在犯不著對外放話。如果紅襪的offer已經比
所有其他人都高,而且沒有人能夠/願意出到這個錢,話這麼明確的線也就還罷了,問
題就是有個支票本更大張的傢伙在旁邊等阿....要是Henry不放話,我覺得NYY根本不會
丟offer,就算丟了,Boras也會拿這個offer回頭問BOS,不會直接簽。
