他列出了大谷下架之后交易市场的前20名球员，把Soto排在第一名
节录
Sources say that though the Padres still hope to buy, they are now listening on
Soto plus star starter Blake Snell and star closer Josh Hader in case things go
further south.
消息说教士队仍然希望当买家，但他们会听取Soto、Snell跟Hader的报价以防球队一路向南
。
A trade of Soto remains unlikely, even more unlikely than deals involving free a
gents to be Snell and Hader, but everything is being considered for MLB’s unluc
kiest team (49-54 and 6 ½ out of the wild card despite a plus-51 run differenti
al).
不过交易现在看起来还不太可能发生，尤其是跟即将FA的两位投手比的话。但对于教士这支
大联盟最不幸的球队来说一切都有可能发生。
Soto isn’t a free agent until after next year, and the vast majority of contend
ers are focusing on pitching, too, which further complicates the chances for a S
oto trade. The Yankees, searching since winter for a lefthanded hitting outfield
er, are one team that fits Soto, though Cubs star Cody Bellinger or possibly Ran
dal Grichuk remain the more likely option for a team still not ready to be extre
mely aggressive. (As of Thursday afternoon, the sides had not talked Soto.)
Soto明年才FA，加上现在大多数季后赛竞争者都想补投手让Soto被交易的机会变得更复杂。
洋基一直在寻求左打外野手，但Bellinger或Grichuk显然更适合这支目前没打算做大交易的
球队
。
The Padres may reasonably believe there’s little hope of extending Soto, and ma
ny believe he wouldn’t mind returning to the East Coast, anyway. But a trade in
winter or at next year’s deadline still seems more likely.
教士可能有理由相信与Soto续约的机会渺茫，许多人认为他不介意回到东岸，不过交易的时
间点似乎更有可能是在今年季后或明年季中
