Seiya Suzuki’s agent expresses discontent over role with Cubs
雖然鈴木誠也合約有NTC，但是他的經紀人 Joel Wolfe 對交易傳聞表示:
“Jed has been very communicative about it,” Joel Wolfe, Suzuki’s
agent, said on Tuesday morning at the Hilton Anatole Resort. “I
talked to him about it last night. He told me what teams they’ve
been talking to.
“I don’t think he wants to trade Seiya, but there may be a
scenario where he feels like he has a deal that he can’t say no
to.”
“Jed Hoyer (小熊總裁) 對此事的溝通一直非常順暢。”
“我昨晚和他談過這件事。 他告訴我他們一直在和哪些團隊討論。”
“我認為他不想交易鈴木誠也，但可能有一種情況，他覺得自己有一筆他無法拒
絕的交易。”
“Seiya was a great defender in Japan, so it’s not a compliment
to him being a DH,” Wolfe said. “I think that if he was being
posted in Japan, and teams were presenting to him their
opportunities, and they said, ‘You could come here and be our
full-time DH,’ I don’t think he would have signed with that
team.”
Wolfe說：“鈴木誠也是日本頂尖防守者，所以擔任DH對他並不是讚美。
我認為，如果當時在日本開放入札時，球隊向他説:'你可以來
這裡做我們的全職DH'，我認為他不會和那支球隊簽約。”
Wolfe, too, acknowledged a Suzuki trade isn’t a certainty,
especially with his no-trade clause.
Wolfe也證實，還不確定會交易鈴木誠也，尤其是他有NTC的狀況下。
