It was the offseason after 2018, leading to the 2019 season. Both superstars wer
e hitting free agency at abnormally young ages due to how early they debuted in
the majors. Both Harper's and Machado's free-agency periods went well past the W
inter Meetings. They went into the new year. Then into spring training.
Machado signed a 10-year, $300 million with the Padres that became official Feb.
21. Harper signed a 13-year, $330 million deal with the Phillies that wasn't of
ficial until March 2.
It's Year 4 of the deal for each and the deals, to reiterate, have been amazing
value.
兩人皆是在2018球季進入FA市場(兩人也都是25歲)
並都拖到春訓才簽約
2/21 Machado和教士簽下10年3億美金合約
3/2 Harper和費城人簽下13年3.3億美金合約
Machado helped drive the group known as Slam Diego in 2020, as the Padres made t
he playoffs for the first time since 2006. He finished third in NL MVP voting th
at season. He made his fifth All-Star team last season and posted his best WAR s
ince 2016.
Harper's teammates haven't fully cooperated, but given that this baseball and no
t, say, basketball, there's only so much one player can do. Harper is doing plen
ty. He won the NL MVP in 2021, leading the majors in doubles, slugging, OPS and
OPS+. He has a better career slash line with the Phillies than Nationals.
而到今年合約已經走了四年
在這中間，CBS列出了他們的成就
Machado
1. 2020幫助教士繼2006年後，首次打入季後賽
2. 2020國聯MVP票選第三(僅次自由人/木屐)
3. 2021入選生涯第五次明星賽+繳出自2016年後最高WAR
Harper
1. 奪下2021國聯MVP(二壘安打/長打率/OPS/OPS+皆為國聯第一)
And while there are certainly other contenders, it's plausible that if an NL MVP
vote were held right now, Machado and Harper would finish 1-2. Here's why:
CBS也認為如果現在要投票
這兩人會是國聯MVP票選前二
Harper either leads the league or is tied for the lead in doubles, home runs, sl
ugging percentage, extra-base hits and total bases. He's second in OPS, runs and
OPS+.
Harper在二壘安打/全壘打/長打率/長打數/壘打數皆為國聯第一
OPS/OPS+則屈居第二
Machado leads the NL in hits, average, on-base percentage, OPS, OPS+, times on b
ase and WAR. He's third in total bases and runs scored, and he's fourth in slugg
ing.
Machado則在安打數/打擊率/上壘率/OPS/OPS+/ TOB/WAR 皆為國聯第一
壘打數/得分排第三
長打率排第四
Both are still just 29 years old, too. I told you, these deals are aging really
well
而且兩人現在也都才29歲而已
