Mr. C.J. Wilson: Overpaid pitcher (How many are there now?), wimp (He appears
to be very ready to find a new team), and extraordinarily average
.
CJ Wilson是一個身價被高估的投手，現在到底有幾個像這樣子的人?顯然他現在正在尋找
新東家。
Mr. C.J. Wilson is in the final year of a terrible contract (5 yr, 77.5 mil).
Scrooge Moreno(猴子老闆) must be extraordinarily happy to see him go. And sinc
e
apparently not committed to the Angels because he is willing to undergo
season-ending surgery just even though it appears he could play through it,
it is time to trade Mr. Wilson.
明年西街將會走完這個糟糕的合約，去年季末關鍵時刻他竟然跑去開刀，顯然他不喜歡在
天使隊投球，天使老闆應該會非常高興看到他滾蛋。
Wilson has a gargantuan $20 mil year coming up, and can block a
trade to 8 teams. Other teams were asking for almost $15 mil to be kept by
the Angels, so it is kind of a deal breaker.
西街明年有20M的薪水要付，還可以拒絕被交易到8隊，其他隊則是想要猴子吃下西
街的15M薪水，這可是大忌阿。
Case for sending him: He's 35 years old and apparently has a bum pitching
elbow. Playing after surgery doesn't work out sometimes (over to you, Albert)
and apparently doesn't want to pitch in Anaheim. He hates pitching in
Oakland, so why bother pitching for a team that is constantly traveling
there? Plus, the Angels already have a surplus. Skaggs, Santiago, Weaver,
Tropeano, Shoemaker, Heaney, Richards, the list goes on. Wilson is (at best)
a #3 or #4, with Richards and Heaney definitely deserving of #1 and 2. Wilson
is average. Just barely under a 4 ERA does not constitute a reason to keep
him.
為甚麼要送西街走?他已經35歲了，有副殘破不堪的手臂。有時候開完刀就怎麼不靈光了(
阿普，該你說話了)!還有，顯然他不想在天使隊投球。他討厭在奧克蘭投球，所以何必還
要再待在一支常常要前往奧克蘭的球隊?再加上，天使的輪值已經滿出來了，有Skaggs,
Santiago,Weaver,Tropeano,Shoemaker,Heaney,Richards。在Heaney還有Richards絕對會
擔任前兩號先發下，西街頂多就只能當個3、4號投手。西街還算堪用，但差點超過4的防
禦率實在很難成為留住他的理由。
A losing attitude is a locker room cancer. Unless CJ fixes his attitude, the
Angels need to get whatever they can while he still has value, because that
guy isn't going to bring us to the playoffs. You know what is? A LF but I'm
sure you've all had your own thoughts about that. Do whatever you have to,
Billy/Sosh and Arte. Get rid of CJ, because the cons sure outweigh the pros.
失敗的態度可說是休息室的癌症，除非西街先修正他的態度，天使需要趁她還有價值時盡
可能做一些事情，因為西街可不打算帶領天使邁向季後賽，你知道誰會嗎?一個左外野手
，
但我知道你們應該對這件事情(LF)都有想法了吧!管理階層們，事實後座你們該做的事了
吧!甩掉西街，留著他肯定是B>Z阿!
Options:
Send him down! Loser attitudes can be fixed with a little bit of a humbling
experience. Plus, if someone claims him off waivers he isn't the Angels'
problem anymore.
Trade him to Texas. Give him a career resurgence. Make him a Halo Killer like
the rest of them, because he probably deserves better than this poohole.
Trade him to somewhere else: The White Sox, maybe? They lost Samardzija, plus
they need someone to fill out the rest of the rotation behind Sale. Or
Boston. They've got a surplus of mediocre outfielders. Maybe we can swap a
mediocre pitcher for one of them to complete the platoon. There are lots of
places that would love a $5 to 7.5 mil #3/4 pitcher. Just get rid of him.
有幾項選擇:
1.下放他，讓他學會謙卑，因為他明顯比小聯盟好太多了。如果把它放進讓渡名單，有人
把它撿走，那麼他再也不是猴子的麻煩了。
2.將他交易到條子，讓他的職業生涯起死回生，就像其他被猴子交易掉的球員一樣。
3.將他交易到白襪，白襪正失去鯊魚，也需要有人跟Sale一起撐起輪值
4.將他交易至紅襪，他們有些普普通通的外野手，也許我們可以用一個平庸的投手換一個
平庸的外野手來完成外野的platoon
有很多隊會想要5~7.5M的三四號投手，所以儘管甩掉西街吧!!
