Rolen not returning
Scott Rolen has decided not to return to the Reds for this season, the club
announced Tuesday afternoon.
紅人發布了消息 宣布Rolen本賽季不會重回球場
“Scott made significant contributions to our team’s recent success, and it
isn’t a coincidence we made the playoffs in two of his three full seasons
here,” Reds GM Walt Jocketty said in a statement. “He made a huge impact in
Cincinnati with his work ethic and leadership on the field, in the clubhouse
and in our community.”…
GM說:
"他曾經為我們貢獻良多 能在他效力的三季中進軍兩次季後賽絕不是巧合
所帶來巨大影響包括工作倫理或是場上領導能力 範圍涵蓋球隊和社區"
Rolen also issued a statement through the team: “Right now I’m simply not
ready to make a commitment. I would like to leave my options open, without
closing any doors. I am looking forward to all of the challenges, both
personally and professionally, I will face in the future.”
Rolen本人聲明:
"我現在只是還沒做出承諾 我會保持開放的選項 不拒絕任何可能性
期待接受任何未來必須面對的 私人和職業的挑戰"
Rolen, who will turn 38 on April 4, batted .245 with eight home runs and 39
RBIs in 92 games last season. He missed 34 games with a left shoulder injury
and several more with back problems. He earned $6.5 million in 2012 in the
final season of a three-year contract and was widely expected to retire.
四月將滿38歲 去年三圍245/318/398 有8HR
並被肩傷 背部問題困擾 2012是三年合約的最後一年 蠻多人認為他會就此退休
The Reds had in essence already moved on from Rolen by naming Todd Frazier as
the everyday third baseman early in the off-season. The club also signed free
agent Jack Hannahan as a backup third baseman and infielder.
紅人已安排Frazier成為先發3B 並於季後簽下Hannahan 準備迎向後Rolen時代
