Ichiro Drawing Interest, Prefers To Stay With Yankees
http://t.co/8i71ipkG
Although he is drawing interest from other teams around the league, Ichiro
Suzuki prefers to re-sign with the Yankees according to his agent Tony
Attanasio. Attanasio told George A. King III of The New York Post that his
client is willing to wait to see if New York wants him back after working out
new contracts with Mariano Rivera and potentially Andy Pettitte.
据经纪人Tony Attanasio表示，虽然有许多球队对一朗有兴趣，但一朗希望能和洋基续约
。Attanasio告诉记者一朗愿意等等看洋基是否有意愿留他。
"They are going after pitching first which is what the Yankees normally do,"
said Attanasio. "There has been a lot of interest [from teams], but he
enjoyed playing for the Yankees so much it’s hard for him to say no to the
Yankees. His preference is to stay there instead of going someplace else, but
we will wait and see."
“洋基还是一样以追求投手为优先。目前有许多球队对一朗有兴趣，但他喜欢在洋基打球
，因此他很难拒绝在洋基打球。他偏好留下来，但我们还要再看看。”
Ichiro, 39, hit .283/.307/.390 in 663 plate appearances last season, but put
up a .322/.340/.454 batting line in 240 plate appearances with the Yankees
following the trade. He also agreed to move from right field to left and bat
near the bottom of the order. King says if the Yankees want Ichiro back, he
would have to agree to a one-year contract with a pay cut from the $17MM he
made in 2012.
39岁的一朗在12球季缴出.283/.307/.390，在洋基更是缴出.322/.340/.454的好成绩。他
甚至愿意移防到左外野。George A. King III表示若洋基愿意留下一朗，将会签一年约，
而薪水会低于12年的$17M。
The Giants and White Sox were among the teams with interest in Ichiro prior
to the trade deadline, and earlier this month we heard the Yankees have some
interest in bringing him back as a replacement for Nick Swisher. Tim Dierkes
ranked the long-time Mariner as the 40th best free agent on his Top 50 Free
Agents List, predicting he would sign with the Rays.
交易大限前巨人和白袜对他有兴趣，而本月份也传出洋基有意让一朗填补Swisher的空缺。
Tim Dierkes将一朗排名为FA市场第40名，并预测他会去光芒。
