As expected, he’ll sign a two-year deal worth US$10 million. Boston media reported that the Red Sox started salary negations with their major unsigned players on Tuesday, and Jeff Moorad, Kim’s agent, entered into talks on that day. His Korean agents also said that he will announce a deal sometime around Saturday.
<P>For Kim, who got US$3.25 million last year, getting US$5 million a year carries with it great financial and symbolic meaning, because it would verify his status as a top Major League pitcher following Texas Rangers starter Park Chan-ho (who makes US$13 million a year on average). This is especially true when one considers how the player salary market has frozen: in the case of the Red Sox, only three pitchers -- Pedro Martinez (US$15.5 million a year), Curt <FONT color=#ec0078><STRONG>Shilling</STRONG></FONT> (US$10 million a year) and Keith Foulke (US$6 million a year) -- make over US$5 million. On Tuesday, six-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens reversed his intention to retire and signed a one-year deal with the Houston Astros worth US$5 million.
<P>Kim also earns the right to become a free agent when his contract is up after two years. If his performance on the mound is satisfactory, he can set his eyes on a big money, multi-year contract like the one signed by Park. He stands a strong chance of joining Martinez, <FONT color=#ec0078><STRONG>Shilling,</STRONG></FONT> Derek Lowe, and Tim Wakefield on the Red Sox’s starting rotation. In a fan poll taken over at the Internet Web site of cable sports news channel ESPN, Boston’s starting staff, including Kim, was ranked as the best in the Major Leagues alongside Oakland’s. Kim, who is currently visiting Japan, plans to return to the United States soon to begin conditioning. <!!--bodyend--><BR><BR></P>

첫댓글 ㅋㅋㅋ 샤론님..친절하게 빨간색으로 표시까지 하구서 뭘 찾아보라구 그러시는지....덕분에 빨리 찾았네요.ㅎㅎㅎ Baritek->Varitek, Shilling->Schilling
망신살이 뻗쳤구만.영문기사 내지나 말지...
오타가 문제가 아니라 구단이 아직 공식 발표를 하지 않은 것은 다른 선수와의 계약이 진행 중이기 때문인데, 아직 공식 발표하지 않을 것을 꼭 팬포럼에 올리는 참새들이 있다니까... 어제 기사 나고나서 저런게 걱정되더라니...
에고고 ..지금 더티도그닷컴에 이 기사랑 사진 크게 떴네요..팬포럼과 레드삭스네이션에도 있고요... 지금이라도 스포츠 조선은 영어 스펠링 수정하시지....그나마 사진은 괜찮은거네 ㅋㅋㅋ
