Only two things will happen with Albert Pujols: he’ll get a contract
extension or he’ll become a free agent, according to ESPN’s Buster Olney.
Don't expect Pujols to accept any trade offers should the Cardinals not be
able to wrap up a contract extension by the beginning of Spring Training.
只有2种可能会发生在小普身上,那就是延长合约或者是成为自由球员,但不要指望
其接受被交易出去,假使红鸟没办法在春训前达成延长合约
The sides have been negotiating for the past several weeks, and it’s been
reported that St. Louis offered something a little less than $200 million to
their All Star.
过去几个星期以来双方谈判,红鸟对于他们的看板给的合约总额不到200M
Being a long-time Major Leaguer with the Cardinals, Pujols has earned
10-and-5 rights which means that if a player has 10 or more years of service
time and 5 or more years on the same team, the team cannot trade the player
without their consent. Traditionally a team would move a high-priced and
soon-to-be free-agent come July if they know they cannot extend the players
contract, but the Cardinals lose this ability because of Pujols’ 10-and-5
rights. Should Pujols become a free agent, the best the Cardinals can get is
a two additional draft picks assuming Pujols gets Type-A free agency
classification.
作为一个长期待在MLB的红鸟球员,小普可以拒绝任何交易(待在MLB10年并待在
同一球队满5年)
因此,假使谈判失败,那么对红鸟来说最好的结果就是得到2个补偿选秀
