最近剛簽下5年85M合約的Weaver日前接受訪問
對於沒有選擇進入FA 而是和天使簽下合約
他表示:
“How much more money do you need?” Weaver said, eliciting roars from a few
hundred fans on hand at Angel Stadium for a news conference to officially
announce the deal.
I’ve never played this game for money.
I play it for love and for championships.
被問到為什麼和其他運動員向錢看的情況不一樣
他表示:
It’s the way I was brought up,” Weaver said. “If $85 million is not enough
to take care of my family and other generations of my family, then you’re
stupid. I play baseball for the love of the game, for the competitive part of
it.
他的決定非常令天使球迷所感動
