The Yankees have spoken to the Diamondbacks about Patrick Corbin. But not just
Patrick Corbin.
洋基跟蛇蛇詢問過派區烤餅，但是不僅僅是派區烤餅。
They also have had talks involving Brandon Drury, who could help fill what are
now vacancies at second and third after the trades of Starlin Castro and Chas
e Headley, The Post has learned.
他們還在討論中加入了Brandon Drury，以便來填入現在洋基交易走Castro、Headley之後
二三壘上面的空缺。
The Yankees’ priority is to deepen their rotation with one or possibly two st
arters, which is why they have homed in on Corbin, a lefty one year from free
agency.
洋基的優先要務是填補1～2位先發投手，這就是為什麼他們向蛇蛇詢問烤餅，一個即將在
19年成為FA的先發左投。
But they have long liked the versatility and hitting potential of Drury, and n
ow they have openings for him.
但是洋基也一直很喜歡Drury的多功能性還有潛在的打擊能力，而現在他們有空缺可以交
給他。
Drury was Arizona’s primary second baseman last year, hitting .267 with 13 ho
mers and a .764 OPS in 480 plate appearances. He played more third base in 201
6 but is blocked there by Jake Lamb, though scouts generally believe he would
defend better at that position. There also is a belief that he has a higher ce
iling as a hitter than he has yet shown.
Drury是本賽季蛇蛇的主戰二壘手，在480個打席之中繳出了avg .267、13HR、OPS .764的
成績。16年他的出賽較多是在3B但是今年被Jake Lamb卡住。而球探普遍認為Drury的防守
在3B是更好的。還有球探相信他的打擊潛力還沒完全發揮出來。
However, the Yankees are not the only team that views Drury this way. Arizona
has talked to quite a few teams about the righty hitter.
但是洋基並不是唯一這麼看Drury的球隊。蛇蛇已經跟多隊討論過關於Drury的交易了。
Drury, 25, also is not even yet arbitration-eligible. That also works for the
Yankees, who do not plan to spend significantly at second or third as part of
their aim to get under the $197 million luxury-tax threshold.
今年25歲的Drury還不具備薪資仲裁的資格。這同樣符合洋基不想要在二三壘上花大錢、
並把薪資壓在197M以下的計畫。
The Yanks believe at some point in 2018 that Gleyber Torres will become their
regular second baseman, possibly to begin the year. They also have Thairo Estr
ada, Ronald Torreyes and Tyler Wade to compete for that and third base, where
they also have Miguel Andujar.
目前洋基內部現在相信在18賽季的某個時間點Torres會成為球隊的主戰二壘手，並且很可
能是開季的時候。隊內還有Thairo Estrada、Ronald Torreyes、Tyler Wade來競爭二三
壘的位置。喔，別忘了還有Miguel Andujar。
又一個即將從蛇蛇來的中線內野手？
Didi 2.0？
