Soto also valued a relationship with ownership. At his previous stops, he had be
come close with team owners, first with the Nationals (Ted Lerner) and then with
the San Diego Padres (Peter Seidler). After one season in New York ahead of fre
e agency, Soto expressed a desire for a deeper relationship with owner Hal Stein
brenner during his November meeting with the Yankees.
Soto本身很重视和球队老板的关系
从国民的Ted Lerner到教士的Peter Seidler都关系很密切
而在11月和洋基的会面中，他也表达想和Hal Steinbrenner建立更深厚的关系
In addition to paying top dollar, Cohen also needed to demonstrate intentions to
win as an owner. Cohen delivered the right messaging to Soto using a personal t
ouch.
所以除了要出最多钱外，梅子老板Steve Cohen也要展示他想赢球的决心
The Mets’ meeting with Soto in November, people briefed on the matter said, hap
pened in California, at one of Cohen’s homes. That was different. All of Soto’
s other meetings with different clubs were held at a hotel.
大都会11月和Soto的会面，跟别队都在饭店会面不一样
他们是在Cohen位于加州的豪宅进行
The personalized request from the Mets, league sources said, was Cohen’s wish.
During the meeting, Cohen spoke about his background, his relationships and what
has made him successful.
这是Cohen本人的要求
而在会议中，Cohen谈到了自己的背景、人脉以及他成功的原因
Soto’s get-together with the Mets shared commonalities from previous meetings w
ith high-profile free agents, where pieces of Cohen’s personality poured out in
to the process.
这和过去Cohen和其他顶级FA球员见面时相似
他本人的性格在整个过程中显现出来
In past meetings, according to people briefed on the discussions, Cohen told fre
e agents that he views his ownership as a civic duty. He’s in it to win for the
long haul, he says. He’s looking to do what it takes to build a perennial winn
er.
过去Cohen就直接跟会面的FA球员说
他把经营梅子都做社会责任
会寻找一切必要的方式，来打造一支长期强队
As a host, Cohen pays attention to details.
Cohen本人对细节也很重视
During his meeting last year with Yoshinobu Yamamoto, for example, he cared abou
t having the color red, a symbol of good luck in Japan, on objects in his house
like how a movie director deploys color for meaning.
去年和山本由伸见面时，他特别把自己的屋子用红色这颜色做布置
因为红色在日本代表幸运
Though Yamamoto ultimately chose the Dodgers, Cohen gave it his best shot.
虽然山本最后去道奇，但Cohen也是尽力了
Mostly, Cohen is organized, authentic and elaborate. His presentation skills she
d light on how he became successful.
大多时候Cohen是个有条理、真诚的人
而他的表达技巧突显了他是如何取得成功
Turns out, a 68-year-old billionaire and a 26-year-old baseball star can bond ov
er ambition.
最后这一位68岁的亿万富翁
与一位26岁的棒球明星，因雄心而建立起了联系
Heyman写的就酸了XD

Steve Cohen is a different kind of owner, for the Mets or for anyone else, reall
y. Cohen held his big confab with his new superstar Juan Soto at his mansion in
Beverly Hills, not the undisclosed, presumably nondescript room where the other
teams did their Soto meetings in Orange County.
Cohen 在比佛利山庄的豪宅里举行了和Juan Soto的重要会议
而不是像其他球队那样，在橙县某个未公开的、可能不起眼的房间里进行Soto的会谈
Cohen had several workers serve lunch to Soto and his agents, by one count seven
servers to about 15 diners. That’s a nice ratio.
和Soto和经纪人吃午餐时
据说约有7名服务员服务15位用餐者，这个比例相当不错
It was Latin food. Nice touch.
是吃拉丁美食，也别具巧思
Cohen invited the guests — Soto and his coterie of agents, including Scott Bora
s — to the theater room to view a film made by the Mets for Soto. All the other
teams used more typical PowerPoint presentatios to make their cases.
其他球队用PPT简报
Cohen是用家庭剧院播影片给Soto和Boras看
Cohen brought to the meeting his wife, Alex, and father-in-law. He also brought
Edgar Suero, the Mets traveling secretary, who explained logistics and family pe
rks.
Cohen 带着他的妻子 Alex 和岳父一起参加了这次会议
他还带来了大都会队的旅行秘书 Edgar Suero，负责解释后勤安排和家庭福利
今天又出一篇
https://reurl.cc/b3GlEX
Mets owner Steve Cohen and his top baseball man, David Stearns, held a secret, l
ast-minute lunch meeting with Juan Soto, Scott Boras and others in Soto’s inner
circle Friday at Cohen’s home in Boca Raton, Fla. It was a very pleasant secon
d get-together, one that solidified Cohen’s resolve to try to win the prize of
the winter.
而在周五，Cohen也和Soto在佛州的房子秘密开会
And yet, Cohen also came away from that high-powered confab convinced Soto was p
reparing to remain in pinstripes.
但当时Cohen感觉他是想要回洋基的
Cohen’s first thought, considering this meeting followed by a few weeks the one
at Cohen’s Beverly Hills mansion: “We can’t keep meeting like this. I’m run
ning out of houses.”
所以当下他觉得不能再这样一直会面
毕竟他也快没其他房子了XD
Many times over the weekend, he told folks he felt sure they were running second
, almost right up until the time they finished first.
整个周末，Cohen多次对身边的人说
他相信自己一直处于第二名的位置
是几乎直到最后一刻才翻盘拿下第一
He kept bidding, anyway. He was so convinced he was heading for bridesmaid terri
tory that he joked to friends and confidants about whether there was prize money
for second place.
但他就是不断出价
也一度确信自己即将成为“伴郎”而非“新郎”
还开玩笑的问朋友说：第二名有奖金吗？
“There was a lot of emotion and a lot of ups and down, not knowing where you st
ood,” Cohen said.
这其中充满了情感波动，然后很多起伏，你完全不知道自己处在什么位置
He may be accused of overpaying, and the deal is historic and remarkable. But th
e Blue Jays were also believed to be at $760 million, so it’s not like he blew
away the field.
The Mets were actually thought to be running second to the Jays at $720 million
into the weekend, and when the Yankees bumped their bid from $702M to $712M, the
gap wasn’t exactly significant.
实际上在进入周末时，梅子是真的被认为开价输给蓝鸟、然后跟洋基很近
梅子 720M
洋基 702M-721M
Cohen offered a $100M signing bonus at one point, but Soto’s camp was more inte
rested in the $50M average annual value.
而Cohen也提议过直接给100M签约金
但Soto阵营是更想要均薪50M
Cohen went to $750M late, then to the winning $765M
所以Cohen最后就一路加码到750M以上了

谈完 ：这间送你

台湾也有个招待到陶朱隐园唱歌的

王电火你尚好麦伤超过

烦恼房子不够用 贫穷限制我的想像力

Cohen:我家很大 欢迎你来玩 玩累直接睡觉没关系的

钱就是我的诚意

一次会面就要消耗一栋房子lol

这就是有钱人

真的用尽全力拉拢耶... 还有安排拉丁料理

四人挤一桌那张不知道是哪队

Cohen真的是很用心的老板，大都会球迷真幸福

四人一桌那个应该是波拉斯内部在开会

大都会的头家叫做王电火 别的没有 就是钱多~

去饭店谈 根本不会成

他不只一次讲自己砸钱在球队是社会责任

房子不够用XDD

去年已经尽力了 没想到有个亚洲人只是来吃大餐的XD

有签到就开造神 其他球团就是穷酸 没钱 小气zzzz

继续牵拖 笑死

没有其他房子了XDD

也不是造神吧 就他一贯风格

讲这么多饭店跟豪宅谈有差？还不是选钱多 不然去豪宅谈Soto有降价吗？

去年他也请山本到他家吃饭啊XD其实重点还是钱啦 日本人才有其他因素

好有趣的报导XD

我房间床很大

让我看看

要不要来我家谈约

翻译:我有钱

我家的床又大又舒服

谈累了直接睡觉 没问题的!

有钱真好

王电火…真的好帅…

要来我家看我岳父后空翻吗？

100M签约金 哭啊

没办法了继续拿出更多诚意继续加码XDDD

延迟的当然穷酸啊

人家砸那么多钱也是说在尽社会责任耶, 以后不能酸社会责任

甲

房子有又大又舒服吗

至高诚意

跟老板关系好是想干嘛 影响球队吗

我家很大 谈累了就直接睡觉 没问题的！

王电火：你想不想看我家地窖藏什么？

Soto我家的床又大又舒服啊

讲一堆 还不就钱多到太香了 哈哈

社会责任XD

我家很大

我的床又大又舒服

来，这间喜欢明天住进来

最主要的还是钱给太多了 洋基输给了钞票攻势

你多出45M 叫boras去你家巷口吃卤肉饭交易也是能成功

不是阿 最后就真的梅子开最高阿

重视和球队老板的关($)系($)

到自己的家里谈，代表是老板愿意为球队经营贡献自己的私人空间吧。展现出来的是一种诚意

没有其他房子你可以再买啊（误）

加到晕就对了

去年也是一样但山本XD

豪宅 + 诚意 + 钱比不上一个学长

电火王：我房子又大又特别喔

这个社会责任等级完全不一样XD

不是吧，就代表他家很豪华，可以当招待所

山本：谢谢招待，饭很好ㄘ

看到running out of houses 快笑死

在家里谈把你当自己人的作法先赢一半了啦

感觉Soto最在乎的点就是第一位均薪50M+洋基卡税线 只好最后一刻出局

soto本人怎决定Cohen 也管不了 这系列文在讲Cohen的性格 其实我挺喜欢他这样的个性的

我家很大 签约完直接睡觉没有问题

气候其实很重要 看得出来大谷很喜欢南加州气候山本就不太确定 可能也是相对喜欢南加州

贫穷限制我的想像力XD

王电火你尚好莫伤超过

这诚意真的给到满 有钱成这样加码还跟你搏感情 怎么输

社会责任

Cohen一直以来都是这样的人 不是说现在开始造神 从他接手大都会到现在 有经历过Wilpon 的都知道差十万八千里只是一开始很爱去批评球队就是了 后面就hand-off了

我家的床又大又舒服

房子不够用是什么鬼XD

怎么？资本社会资本市场就是这样啊

https://x.com/danbartels2/status/1857594438249250982?s=46&t=TDE_EkpeNvGuDdNLVHgMiw

比的不就是这个？不谈钱难道谈心？

我的豪宅又大又舒服

我的房子很大，欢迎你们来玩

在那边愤恨没用啦 没钱穷酸嘴巴闭闭

嘻嘻

只差没真的把运钞车开出来了

打球累了就直接睡觉，没问题的

王电火你最好别太超过

山本白嫖

请问…他当初怎么抢输道奇的啊？记得他之前是想买道奇，不是大都会

王电火熊超过

你家的猫会后空翻吗？

老板有钱真好

油鸡：又要到饭啦 兄弟们！

我觉得蛮有诚意的啊，有那种对你敞开心扉的感觉。

我一个人住，房子很大，欢迎来我家玩，玩累了就，直接睡觉，没问题的

哈哈哈

好色喔

哈哈还有其他客人

让你看看爸爸我的房子

重点是一直不断出价那一句吧

重点还是钱吧 你如果开个10亿站路边聊也可以

推文一堆杰哥 XD

王电火：我家很大，累了你可以睡床上

我家很大.jpg

让我看看！

大都会: 那个基基就是逊啦~~ 来我给你看好康的

王电火 怎么输 都给你买就好了

我家很大很舒服 谈累了就直接休息 没问题的

甲甲

看基迷崩溃真的很爽

诚意 本斥但香

这过程真有趣

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$就是比你多

太舒服了==

这样听起来 王电火去年大概输在饭请太少顿（X

I’m running out of houses....笑死

我家很大

重点在钱而不是在哪谈

deeper relationship

Orange county翻译应该是橘郡吧
