Phillies, Red Sox pursuing Mets star
http://ppt.cc/pSmb
<以下重点段落节录>
The Phillies and Red Sox are among the most aggressive suitors for Mets
outfielder Carlos Beltran — if not the most aggressive, according to
major-league sources.
如果说费城人&红袜不是最积极争取大都会Beltran的两队，也是“名列前茅”之二。XD
The interest for Beltran is so high, sources say, that the Mets might trade
him several days or more before the July 31 non-waiver deadline — and include
less money in the deal than they initially expected would be necessary.
对Beltran有兴趣的队伍意愿之高让大都会有可能在7/31大限前七天或更早把他交易出去
，即使$$没有大都会预期的多。
The Mets’ priority in trading him is to obtain high-quality prospects, not
save money. But they may be in position to achieve both goals to a significant
extent.
大都会交易Beltran的重点是拿到潜力新秀，不是$$，但大都会很有机会拿到$$+潜力小朋
友。
<司马昭：最好重点不是钱~ XD>
The trade market is thin on starting pitchers and short on impact bats, making
Beltran — a switch-hitter who ranks 10th in the National League with an .893
OPS — a particularly valuable commodity.
今年交易市场的先发和大棒很少，所以左右开弓、OPS0.893在国联排行第10的Beltran是很
有价值的“好物”。
Both the Phillies and Red Sox likely would use Beltran in right field, viewing
him as a difference-maker not just in the pennant race, but also in the post-
season.
费城人&红袜最有可能将Beltran摆右外野，皆视他为分区冠军及季后赛要角。
Beltran remains an above-average defender as a corner outfielder, increasing
his appeal to prospective suitors. The Giants, Indians, Tigers and Braves are
among the other clubs that have expressed interest in trading for him.
Beltran左右外野守备能力高于平均值，这也让对他有兴趣的队伍意愿更高，巨人、
印地安人、老虎和勇士是其他争取Beltran的队伍。

话说大都会到底欠Beltran多少钱? =.=' 除了文中提到的$6 million这个数目外，还有未
付清的吗？

: Speculation that the Mets could trade their stars intensified on Wednesday
: when they dealt closer Francisco Rodriguez to the Brewers.
: Buster Olney of ESPN.com wrote on his Twitter page that outfielder Carlos
: Beltran is drawing interest from at least six teams, and possibly seven.
