So, Kei Igawa was posted today. People are speculating that he'll cost $17M to begin negotiations. Think it's worth it for the O's to see if they can sign the guy? Even negotiate with him?
It seems as though there aren't a lot of sports writers who are über keen on him based on several articles, but I'm still of the ilk who believe the Orioles <u>need</u> to pick up a few Japanese players to increase international interest; perhaps even increase revenue.
Here's a link to his stats.
Here's a link to an article about the US All-Stars tour of Japan, and players' feelings on the Kei Igawa.
