in J. Upton, Cespedes
太空人、教士据报导为“某件大事”努力中；白袜对J. Upton, Cespedes有了兴趣
By Paul Casella and Austin Laymance / MLB.com |
Today's non-waiver Trade Deadline is fast approaching, and if Thursday's
blockbuster deals were any indication, the final hours leading up to 4 p.m.
ET should be thrilling.
MLB Network will air live coverage of Trade Deadline news starting at 10 a.m.
ET. To get you prepared for what figures to be a wild day in baseball, here's
a recap of what went down Thursday and the top rumors circulating around the
league:
前导文，看看就好，主要提到交易大限快到了，应该是台湾时间8/1(六) 04:00截止。
‧ A number of players figure to be on the move in the coming hours, and
MLB.com columnist Anthony Castrovince offers his predictions on what today
could bring, including the Yankees' pursuit of Padres closer Craig Kimbrel.
作者提及MLB专栏作家做了预测，包括洋基向教士寻求Craig Kimbrel。
‧ The Blue Jays made another splash Thursday morning by acquiring ace David
Price from the Tigers, which furthers Toronto's position as a contender in
the American League, writes MLB.com's Gregor Chisholm.
蓝鸟从老虎队王牌投手David Price的竞争中胜出。
‧ The Astros also cemented their status as AL contenders with a bold trade
for Brewers outfielder Carlos Gomez and right-hander Mike Fiers. Houston is
looking to make the postseason for the first time in 10 years, and the club
might not be done dealing yet.
太空人从酿酒人取得外野手Carlos Gomez跟右投手Mike Fiers，太空人期待睽违十年后
能再度进到季后赛，球团交易补强可能还会继续。
The future is now for the Astros, explains MLB.com columnist Richard Justice,
who adds that Houston is still shopping for another starter and could go
after Padres right-handers Tyson Ross or Andrew Cashner.
That falls in line with a Yahoo! Sports report early Friday morning that the
Astros and Padres are working on "something big" possibly involving Kimbrel
or Ross.
MLB专栏作家提到太空人仍然可能会交易来一位先发投手，可能会竞逐教士的Tyson Ross
跟Andrew Cashner，不过雅虎运动则认为，“某件大事”可能会有关Kimbrel
或 Ross。
‧ Thursday night ended with a bang, too, as the Giants pulled off a trade
for Reds starting pitcher Mike Leake. The deal bolsters San Francisco's
rotation, but it cost the club its top overall prospect in right-hander Keury
Mella, along with infielder Adam Duvall (No. 25).
巨人从红人交易来了先发投手Mike Leake，这笔交易充实了巨人的先发轮值，但这也让球
团失去了潜力新秀：右投Keury Mella跟内野手Adam Duvall(No. 25)。
‧ The red-hot White Sox are apparently looking to build off of their recent
push into the AL Wild Card race. CBS Sports reports that the White Sox have
now expressed interest in Padres outfielder Justin Upton and Tigers
outfielder Yoenis Cespedes. This falls in line with a report from USA Today
earlier Thursday afternoon that the White Sox were "aggressively looking" to
add a hitter to their lineup.
目前当红的白袜明显想拼拼看美联外卡，CBS Sports报导指出，白袜对教士的Justin
Upton跟老虎的Yoenis Cespedes感兴趣，白袜很渴望能增加一位打者在他们的打序中。
Both outfielders are believed to be readily available, with the Padres having
already discussed a potential Upton deal with the Orioles earlier this week,
and the Tigers reinforcing that they've become sellers by shipping Price to
the Blue Jays on Thursday afternoon. In addition to checking in on Upton, the
O's have also reportedly expressed interest in Cespedes, though they are said
to be unwilling to part with any of their top prospects.
教士跟金莺在这周初便有谈过Upton的交易，且老虎也转成卖家将Price交易到蓝鸟了。
除了确认Upton，金莺也对Cespedes感兴趣，尽管他们没有意愿对任一个交易，放入他们的
顶级新秀。
‧ The Cubs are "aggressively trying" to move shortstop Starlin Castro,
according to ESPN.com. This report comes one day after 21-year-old Addison
Russell made his fifth career start at shortstop on Wednesday night. He's now
appeared at shortstop in three of the last six games, though Castro started
at shortstop on Thursday.
根据ESPN.com，小熊有强烈的意愿把游击手Starlin Castro交易掉。这份报导来自于一天
后21岁的Addison Russell，在星期三晚上第五度的先发。他目前在过去六场比赛中，有
三度担任游击手的位置，尽管Starlin Castro周四先发担任游击手。
Though it's unclear which teams the Cubs have specifically discussed Castro
with, they are believed to be in the market for pitching depth. The
25-year-old Castro, who has four years and $38 million remaining on his
contract after this year, is hitting just .237 this season.
虽然，小熊针对哪一队针对Starlin Castro尚不明朗，但这被认为这可以为他们的投手
深度做准备。25岁的Starlin Castro，未来还有四年3800万的合约，而他本季只有.237的
打击率。
‧ The D-backs are reportedly waiting to hear back from the Reds, after
extending an offer Thursday night for closer Aroldis Chapman, according to
CBS Sports. The D-backs have made their interest in Chapman well-known
leading up to the Deadline, though it's unclear at this point exactly what
their offer includes. The Astros, Giants and Yankees are among the other
clubs that have been tied to Chapman in various degrees this week.
响尾蛇据CBS Sports报导仍在听红人Aroldis Chapman的报价。响尾蛇在交易大限前，对
Aroldis Chapman感兴趣，尽管在此时间点他们的offer有哪些仍不明朗。太空人、巨人、
洋基在这周对Chapman有不同程度的兴趣。
‧ One night after their bid to acquire Gomez somehow fell apart at the last
minute, the Mets are now reportedly pursuing Reds outfielder Jay Bruce,
according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports. Bruce has been one of the obvious
names linked to the Mets, given their desire to land an outfield bat matched
with the Reds' intent to move a number of their core veteran players. The
report adds that Zack Wheeler would "most likely" be involved in any
potential deal with the Reds, though the Mets are also still looking into
other options.
大都会在最后一刻未能取得Gomez，目前据Ken Rosenthal报导转向红人队的外野手Jay
Bruce。Bruce是其中一位大都会想取得的外野手，而红人也想对他们的核心老将进行移动
。这份报导指出 Zack Wheeler 可能会在交易之中，尽管大都会仍在寻求其他选择。
‧ While Yovani Gallardo struggled on the mound against the Yankees on
Thursday night, rumors surrounding the Rangers' right-hander were continuing
to swirl off of it. CBS Sports reports that at least five teams have
expressed interest in Gallardo, with the Cubs, Blue Jays and Dodgers
considered to be making the hardest pushes. The report also mentions the
Yankees, who placed Michael Pineda on the disabled list Thursday, as another
potential destination.
虽然Gallardo在周四晚上对洋基投的挣扎，但交易传闻仍围绕在这位游骑兵的投手身
上，CBS Sports报导指出至少有五队对Yovani Gallardo感兴趣，包括小熊、蓝鸟跟道奇
，被认为是竞逐最激烈的几队，这份报导也提到了洋基，他们的Michael Pineda周四进入
到伤兵名单，也是个潜在的买家。
The 29-year-old Gallardo racked up an impressive 2.62 ERA over his first 19
starts this year, but he has struggled since the All-Star break. Including
Thursday's outing, he's allowed five runs in each of his three second-half
starts, during which he has an unsightly 9.64 ERA over 14 innings.
29岁的Gallardo有令人印象深刻的2.62ERA，在他今年的头19场先发，但自从明星赛后，
他却投得很挣扎。包含周四的先发，他明星赛后三场先发中，有两场投不满五局且三场每
场皆被得了五分，过去14局有不好看的9.64ERA。
