The '09 team has about $30.5MM committed before arbitration raises to Doumit, LaRoche, McLouth, Maholm, Duke, Grabow, Yates, and Bautista. Even after those, they'll still be comfortably under $40MM. So there is no need to make payroll-motivated trades. 海贼08年的薪资是$48.7MM，在不含Doumit, LaRoche, McLouth, Maholm, Duke, Grabow, Yates, Bautista仲裁增加的部份之前是大约$30.5MM。加上去之後仍然在$40MM以下。 所以没必要做那种为了减轻薪资压力的交易。 It is fair to suggest the Pirates moved in the right direction with this year's trades. This team won't sniff contention in 2009, even with some breakout seasons. Right now it's simply a team short on star power without much in the way of hitting or pitching. It will get worse before it gets better if the Bucs move LaRoche and/or Wilson this winter. The focus should be a young shortstop and pitching. The Pirates won't be signing any significant free agents. 在今年做的交易後，可以很合理的说海贼正往正确的方向移动。即便有些突破性的因子， 这支球队在明年还是不会是竞争者之一。目前这是一支缺乏明星球员，在投手和打击两 方面都没有太多深度的球队。在变的更好之前，如果这个冬天交易掉腊肉哥和（或） Wilson，甚至会变的更糟。交易的目标则会锁定年轻的游击手和投手。不会去签任何 重要的自由球员。 Doumit, McLouth, and Maholm were the bright spots in '08. Hopefully those players can sustain their success while players like Andy LaRoche, Moss, Snell, and Ohlendorf take a step forward. Andrew McCutchen and Jose Tabata represent outfield promise for the future. Signing Pedro Alvarez would add another future star to the farm system. Neal Huntington did a nice job amassing young arms this year, and I'm sure he'll continue to do so. With some luck added, the Pirates could be competitive in 2010. Doumit, McLouth, and Maholm是这个球季的亮点，希望在Andy LaRoche, Moss,Snell, and Ohlendorf有进一步的成长之前，他们能够维持住这样的表现。 Andrew McCutchen and Jose Tabata代表了未来的外野希望。签下Pedro Alvarez会在农场里加入另一个未 来明星。Neal Huntington在堆积年轻投手这件工作上做的很好，而我也确定他会继续进 行这件事。如果加上一些幸运，海贼最快在後年可以成为一支有竞争力的队伍。 ------------------- 虽然不一定长的出来，不过LaRoche, McCutchen,Tabata,Alvarez这几个人作为未来的核心 还是相当令人期待，目前农场最缺的就是高潜力的投手，几笔交易里换来的年轻投手都是 顶多後段轮值的脚色，还是期待Ian Snell跟Tom Gorzelanny能够拿出他们曾经有过的好 表现，如果重建进行到一定的程度，明年或後年的冬天再签下一两个关键的FA，我想这 漫长的黑暗期应该即将要结束了。 --
