ARLINGTON -- The Rangers have picked Oakland Athletics third-base coach Ron
Washington as their new manager.
Washington will be introduced as the 17th full-time manager in club history
at a news conference Monday at Ameriquest Field in Arlington.
He replaces Buck Showalter, who was let go at the end of the season after the
Rangers finished with a record of 80-82.
我們選擇是...A's的三壘教練Washington來當總教頭.....取代去年教練
Buck Showalter 去年成績是80W-82L。
Washington was given the job after a Sunday afternoon interview with Rangers
owner Tom Hicks and general manager Jon Daniels. He had previously
interviewed with Daniels, assistant general manager Thad Levine and A.J.
Preller.
"He was very impressive," Hicks said. "He's a real winner."
General manager Jon Daniels declined comment.
他是星期天下午和老闆面試完後就決定要錄取了~ 老闆說:『他讓人印象深刻』,
『他是個真正的贏家...』但JD對於這沒有評論....
"I feel great," Washington said late Sunday night. "It's an opportunity I've
been looking forward to. Mr. Hicks, Jon Daniels, Thad Levine, and A.J.
Preller, those are the guys I met and they were very nice. They really made
me feel welcome. I'm looking forward to working with them."
Washington, 54, has spent the last 11 seasons on the Oakland Athletics
coaching staff and has two years of Minor League managerial experience in the
New York Mets system.
"The Rangers have a very good nucleus," Washington said. "With the nucleus
they have, they are very capable of taking it to the next level and with the
guys in charge, I think I can help them take that to the next level. They are
right on the edge."
新教頭說:『我感覺很棒...我覺得這些面試的人都很棒,真的讓我感覺歡迎我的到來~
我期盼跟他們一起工作』
54歲的Washington,11個球季待在A's,兩年時間是在梅子的小聯盟裡頭~~~
他說:『RANGERS有著非常好的核心,有著這核心,我們可以繼續前進到下一個
階段的提升,我可以幫助他們到達下一階段,他們有這樣的優勢』
Washington was selected over four other candidates, including Don Wakamatsu,
who was the Rangers' bench coach over the past four years. The Rangers also
interviewed Mets third-base coach Manny Acta, Phillies Triple-A manager John
Russell and Trey Hillman, who managed the Nippon Ham Fighters to the Japan
Series championship last month.
Washington spent parts of 10 seasons as a player in the Major Leagues with
the Los Angeles Dodgers, Minnesota Twins, Baltimore Orioles, Cleveland
Indians and Houston Astros. He finished his career in the Rangers
organization as an infielder at Triple-A Oklahoma in 1990.
He began his coaching career in 1991 with the Mets' Triple-A affiliate in
Tidewater. He managed the Class A Columbia Bombers in 1993-94 with a record
of 123-153 before returning to Tidewater as a coach in 1995. He was hired by
the Oakland Athletics in 1996. He was their first-base coach for one year
before moving over to third base.
He has also been working with the Athletics' infielders, and third baseman
Eric Chavez credited Washington with turning him into a five-time Gold Glove
winner.
以上這邊就不大需要翻譯,因為將往事重提,另外是說我們新教頭的過去歷史~
並且調教了A's三壘手Eric Chavez...使他是五屆金手套得主喔~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~譯者imkevin分隔線~~~~~~~~~~~~~
翻譯到此其實心裡頭是知道的~自己的想法~~是為了成本上的考量~
老實說~當那天知道Washington要回來和老闆重新面試的時候我就跟mayfirst 在互相
討論~~當中我就提到了關於RANGERS肯不肯花錢的問題~~mayfirst還安慰我說大概
1M 應該出的起~....所以網羅Hillman應該OK~ 心中老實說沒有失落是騙人的。
比起話題性,地緣性,與日本職棒交流,接軌的這些條件看起來,再加上日本一的頭銜
,選Hillman是應該沒有問題的~當然Washington也是有相當好的經歷和經驗~
但是在前一篇外電~我看到了以下的字句~更證實我的想法是對的外電說:
『Hillman has an offer to return to the Fighters at a salary of over $1
million, and that's likely to be much more than the Rangers can afford.
Hillman also has interviewed with the San Diego Padres and the Oakland
Athletics』
也許我們是有預算~但是這樣對嗎?是否應該把適合自己,適合球隊~當作考量~
也許也許Hillman 不是最佳的選擇~那應該由專業上來說他不適任~而不是由薪水上~
這是個人想法~另外又講到要爭取松土反的消息~我看也大概是說說而以~~
心情低潮中~~不過還是希望Washington給我們很大的驚奇~~
恭喜Washington.....RANGERS就交給您囉~~也跟A's說聲不好意思~~
