All the mayor has said to this point is the group is credible. It is. 到目前为止，关於这项提案的一切，包括幕後人士的身分，都笼罩在神秘之中，市长目前只 表示这个团队是可信的，而事实确实如此 After The Globe and Mail talked to three sources with direct knowledge not only of who is leading this project, but what it might involve, a clearer picture has emerged of just how far along plans are in terms of making this MLB fantasy a r eality. That said, this goal is far from a sure thing. 在《环球邮报》访问了三位不仅了解谁在主导该计画、也清楚其内容的消息人士之後，外界 对於这项 MLB 梦想实现的进度已有更清晰的认识。不过，这个目标仍远非十拿九稳 The Globe is not naming the three sources because they were not authorized to di scuss the plan’s details. 《环球邮报》未公开这三位消息人士的姓名，因为他们并未被授权讨论该计画的细节 The person leading the project is Zack Ross, president of the Cape Group, a Vanc ouver-based residential and commercial real estate company, according to the thr ee sources. Ross is a relatively low-key figure in the city’s establishment fir mament. He did not respond to e-mail and phone messages sent and left by The Glo be requesting an interview. 根据这三位消息人士，该计画的领导者是 Zack Ross，他是总部位於温哥华的住宅与商业地 产公司 Cape Group 的总裁 Ross 在当地商界中相对低调《环球邮报》透过电子邮件与电话邀请他受访，但他并未回应 。 Mr. Sim’s office also declined an invitation to talk about the project. Sim 市长办公室也婉拒了针对此计画受访的邀请 It’s understood that Mr. Ross’s interest in pursuing an MLB franchise began se veral years ago when he was asked by the then-owners of the Vancouver Canadians minor-league baseball team to find a site for a potential new stadium for the te am to play in. That process apparently sparked the idea in Mr. Ross of pursuing an MLB franchise, according to one of the sources. (The Canadians never did move from their existing stadium.) 据了解，Ross 对於争取 MLB 球队的兴趣始於数年前，当时温哥华小联盟球队 Vancouver C anadians 的前任老板请他为球队寻找可能的新球场用地 据其中一位消息人士指出，这个过程启发了 Ross 进一步争取 MLB 球队的想法 Here are some of the things we now know about the bid and some of the people inv olved in it. 以下是目前我们对这项申请案及其相关人物所掌握的一些资讯 Two of the sources said that Mr. Ross has employed the services of Jac Sperling to help recruit potential investors and put together a credible MLB pitch. 其中两位消息人士表示，Ross 已聘请 Jac Sperling协助招募潜在投资人，并打造一份具说 服力的 MLB 提案 There may not be a better-connected sports executive in the U.S. than Mr. Sperli ng, founder of Grit Rock Ventures. He’s been involved at the highest levels in all the major professional sports leagues in the U.S. He was instrumental in hel ping Seattle land its NHL team. Especially key is the fact that he knows the peo ple who have the kind of money in America that might be interested in investing in an MLB franchise in Vancouver. Grit Rock Ventures 创办人 Sperling 可能是美国人脉最广的体育高层之一，他曾在美国 所有主要职业运动联盟的最高层级参与运作，并在协助西雅图取得 NHL 球队的过程中扮演 关键角色，更重要的是，他认识那些拥有雄厚资金、可能有兴趣投资温哥华 MLB 球队的人 。 Among the groups that have apparently expressed an interest are the owners of th e San Francisco 49ers, said one of the sources. An investment arm of the team ca lled 49ers Enterprises already owns English soccer team Leeds United and has a c ontrolling stake in the Scottish soccer giant Rangers FC. 其中一位消息人士指出，据称表达兴趣的团体包括 NFL 球队旧金山49人的老板，该球队旗 下的投资部门49ers Enterprises 已经拥有英格兰足球队 Leeds United，并持有苏格兰劲 旅 Rangers FC 的控股权 The owners of the Seattle Kraken is another group linked to the bid, the source said. The NHL club is owned by One Roof Sports, and led by majority owner and ch air, Samantha Holloway. 消息人士表示，NHL 球队西雅图海怪的老板也是与此申请案有关的另一个团体，该球队由 O ne Roof Sports 拥有，并由大股东兼董事长 Samantha Holloway 领导 Others who have apparently expressed enthusiasm in becoming part of the endeavou r include Vancouver-born movie star Ryan Reynolds, according to the source. His publicist did not respond to a request from The Globe for comment. 根据消息人士，其他对参与此计画表现出兴趣的人还包括出生於温哥华的电影明星 Ryan Re ynolds，不过他的公关并未回应《环球邮报》的置评请求 --
