Michael Fulmer 續留老虎 - 美國職棒

看到這個消息就想到去年八月看到的這篇文章：

7-offers-for-michael-fulmer.html

原文節錄：It was during that 2017 season that the Tigers finally went into ful
l
mode, trading Justin Verlander, Justin Upton, J.D. Martinez, and others
before the trading period finally halted at the end of August. Fulmer
received plenty of attention from trade suitors, though he wasn’t as obvious
of a moveable asset given that he still had so many years of team control
remaining.

Nonetheless, the Tigers received some sizeable offers for his services, and
according to Anthony Fenech of the Detroit Free Press, these offers included
two blockbusters for future All-Stars. The Tigers reportedly declined a
three-player package from the Cubs that would have seen Javier Baez head to
Detroit in exchange for Fulmer, while the Astros were willing to give up Alex
Bregman for both Fulmer and left-hander Justin Wilson.

Michael Fulmer 在2016年先發主投了159局，繳出了ERA 3.06，FIP 3.76，fWAR 3.1的優
秀成績，也一舉奪下當年度的ROY。根據報社Detroit Free Press記者Anthony French的
報
導，老虎在2017年收到了許多有意交易Fulmer的球隊開的誘人報價，其中包含了小熊以
Javier Baez為主菜的三名球員同捆包，還有太空人開出的以Alex Bregman交換Fulmer
以及左投手Justin Wilson，但老虎最終一一拒絕了這些報價。

簡評：在2017年中旬 Michael Fulmer 的交易價值相當高，前一年剛奪下新人王，而且
身上有五年半的控制權，也許因為這樣老虎還不想那麼快把他交易出去。Fulmer雖然在
2017年繳出持平的成績，但2019年手肘韌帶撕裂動了TJ，前途未卜...反而是 Baez跟
Bregman過了幾年都繳出怪物級的成績，前者2018 MVP-2，後者2018 MVP-5、2019 MVP-2
。只能說投手傷病風險真的太高了...
