Rckies' shortstop Troy Tulowitzki will meet with his agent on Thursday to
discuss if it is time to ask the Rockies for a trade, according to a report
from Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Agent Paul Cohen confirmed the
meeting to Sherman, noting that pressure could be building on the Rockies'
franchise to move Tulowitzki sooner than later:
"It could get to the point for [owner] Dick Monfort and GM Jeff [Bridich]
that the storyline every day with the team is when is Tulowitzki being
traded," Cohen said. "That is negative for the franchise as the idea of
trading the face of the franchise. They are smart enough to recognize they don
’t want that going forward."
Rumors have swirled about Tulowitzki's availability for years, with the
Cardinals, Yankees and Mets being among the most commonly-linked teams as the
Rockies have continued to struggle. Tulowitzki's status as the face of the
franchise has led to the club being reluctant to make a move involving him,
though a new regime led by new general manager Jeff Bridich may finally lead
to a trade being made. Bridich declined comment when asked by SB Nation about
the report this afternoon.
Tulowitzki, 30, has been excellent this season, hitting .307/.317/.495 with
two homers despite the Rockies stumbling to an 11-17 record and losing their
last nine games. He is under contract through the 2020 season at the price of
roughly $110 million, meaning that a team with a big payroll would likely
have to be the one to make a move. Sherman reports that the Yankees are not
likely to trade for Tulowitzki, despite some early struggles from Didi
Gregorius at the shortstop position.
If he decides to ask the Rockies for a trade, Tulowitzki would likely have
control over where he would be sent due to his strong relationship with
Bridich and team owner Dick Monfort, who has been vocal about the team's
commitment to helping Tulowitzki and star outfielder Carlos Gonzalez do what
is best for their careers. Tulo's decision this week will have a massive
impact on the trade market, potentially accelerating its forces more than two
months before the July 31 trade deadline.
簡而言之他這次會很慎重的跟他的經紀人好好討論是否該跟洛基的高層會談了
不過當然，消息沒說死，畢竟有什麼意外很難說
只說兔肉考慮跟高層聊他或許該被交易的事情
但我相信大家都還記得，去年他就有表達想走的意願
還特地跑去洋基的比賽現場當觀眾給媒體拍
相信心已經是真的飛往別處了
所以~~下家會是哪呢?
相信到時搶人大戰會很精彩!!
