Source: Phillies re-sign Cole Hamels to megadeal
By Matt Gelb
Cole Hamels and the Phillies have agreed in principle to a six-year contract
that will make him the richest player in team history, according to a source.
The 28-year-old former World Series MVP will sign a six-year, $144 million
deal that reportedly has a vesting option for a seventh year. In all, the
total package could be worth $160 million, according to USA Today. An
agreement was originally reported by FOXSports.com.
这位28岁的前世界大赛MVP左投签下了144M/6yrs的合约
据USA Today和FOXSports.com指出
这份合约还有第七年的vesting option将使其总值来到160M
It is the second-largest contract ever signed by a pitcher, eclipsed only by
CC Sabathia's $161 million deal once signed with the New York Yankees. Had
Hamels waited two months and reached free agency, he likely would have
surpassed Sabathia's deal. Instead, he signed the most lucrative contract
ever for a Philadelphia athlete.
这是MLB投手史上的第二大约 （第一是CC的161M/7yrs）
也是费城运动员史上最大的合约
The deal is expected to be formally announced later this morning at Citizens
Bank Park during a news conference.
费城可能在等一下世银球场比赛开打前就会宣布这项消息
Both sides were increasingly optimistic about a pact being struck once the
Phillies agreed to guarantee six years. Long-term negotiations never
intensified until within the last month, once the July 31 trade deadline
acted as a mythical barrier.
Hamels had long insisted his desire to remain in Philadelphia, but often
wondered aloud what it would be like to test free agency. He signs this deal
as the Phillies teeter on the edge of relevancy, buoyed by three straight
dramatic victories.
黑魔使渴望留在费城，但也想去FA市场试水温
在费城最近三天戏剧性的三连胜之后，他决定不要再为难一直加码的老东家
The deal was brought to Hamels following his start Saturday and the
lefthander considered the proposal for a few days. A source said Tuesday
night there were "still issues" with the offer but that a conclusion was
within reach.
Sometime after the Phillies scored six runs in the eighth inning to beat
Milwaukee, 7-6, Hamels said yes to the terms.
费城在上礼拜六黑魔使先发结束后提出这份合约，他考虑了几天之后
终于双方在费城第八局逆转酒鬼的星期二晚上达成共识
The Phillies have invested $68 million in three starting pitchers for 2013.
Hamels' deal is structured similarly to Cliff Lee's, which will pay him an
average annual salary of $24 million for five years, plus an option for a
sixth year. The Phillies have guaranteed more than six years to only one
player, Chase Utley.
费城三巨投在2013的薪水总值将来到68M （Doc20M、小李24M、黑魔24M）
黑魔使这约和小李的120M/5yrs一样，平均年薪都是24M
在这之前，费城史上只有Chase Utley拿到6年以上的合约 （85M/7yrs）
In total, the Phillies are committed to $133 million in 2013 payroll for only
nine players. That does not include a $5 million team option for catcher
Carlos Ruiz sure to be exercised and a possible $15 million payment through
arbitration for outfielder Hunter Pence.
2013年费城人的payroll将确定会达到133M，而这只是9位球员的薪水...
(三巨投68M、Kendrick 4.5M、宝贝碰13M、J-Ro 11M、猴儿20M、阿特力15M、Nix 1.35M)
这还不包括一定会捡的Ruiz 5M选择权、还有明年最后一年arb年薪可能将来到15M的Pence
In other words, the Phillies may be far from finished in making moves. One
goal could be to clear enough salary in 2012 to dip under the luxury tax
limit of $178 million so the team can eclipse it in 2013. There are punitive
penalties for repeat tax offenders, and the Phillies have maintained they
will not pay it.
It could be unavoidable in 2013 with the current payroll commitments.
费城坚持在2013会把薪资总额控制在178M以下，不会负担可观的豪华税

推 Fukudome:不管哪一队啦...今年MLB只要没有任何一队丢出过平均20M/y
