Kuroda agrees to three-year contract (Ed. note: with Dodgers)

The deal is pending results of a physical examination, which Kuroda took this morning at Centinela Hospital, but it's done and believed to be worth between $36 million to $40 millon. Club officials aren't commenting for now, but two sources with knowledge of the situation confirmed the deal within the past half hour.

I'm scared. Hold me.

I won't believe it until Kuroda says it.

And you should probably mention what team he's allegedly signing with; people might not read the link.

What do I look like, a guy who's not lazy?

The next week could be very interesting

The only thing holding back the floodgates is the fact that the Twins still haven't finished pawning off Santana.

Anyone else find it odd

that the implication of the title still gave no real indication of which team he signed with. Even after reading your blurb, I was still a little unsure. Scary time to be an M's fan at the moment

It would have been really nice

To see Adam Jones in the outfield next year.

I'd say the odds of that happening at this point are, oh, 20%.

by oneiric232 on Dec 15, 2007 1:21 PM PST reply actions 0 recs

I'm still holding out hope...

For a good trade that doesn't involve Adam.

...

Yeah...I'm clearly hallucinating.

On the other hand, if true

At least we know that Bavasi wasn't stupid enough to overpay Kuroda that much, cuz we all know he could have.

that is really not fair to say.

last year his father was still alive and he had a reason to stay in japan.

I know,

I'm just being absurdly mean.

Naka's saying that there are writers saying the M's somehow bungled negotiations early on. I'm kind of interested in seeing that, but if it's some sort of tampering charge or whatever, like if they talked before he declared FA or something, I'm not going to be impressed.
