really???.. I can't believe this might really happen....
Posted by: fearthechant | December 17, 2008 at 04:45 PM
I'd buy that for a dollar.
On second thought... maybe not.

"Koji is 36-19 with a 4.41 ERA lifetime."
With an NPB record like that, is it really worthwhile to even bother at age 35 to take a shot at MLB?

I think I could come up with the largest posting fee with the money in my wallet...

I'm out. I was only going to offer him the change that I could find in my couch.

Maybe I'll post him myself so I have a roommate to play catch with.

The definition of irony: A fan of a franchise that hasn't won anything in about a million criticizing the people who run a franchise with more championships then any other team in the history of sports. By Clarknaddison's standards, the Cubs, his own team, are a joke. I mean, they overpaid for Alfonso Soriano, Jason Marquis, Ted Lilly, Carlos Zambrano, and they haven't won a playoff game in years.
I'm sorry to the other Cub fans, but this guy is just a clown.

Lol the cubs are cheap?? Wow i thought theyre known for paying too much, not being cheap.
Posted by: chicubs25 | December 17, 2008 at 06:42 PM
Yeah i think he was talking about Igawa when he said that. Even though it still didnt make much sense because Igawa wasnt old and did well in Japan.
Posted by: chicubs25 | December 17, 2008 at 06:49 PM
good point nrmax88 maybe if the cubs parted with some dough like the yankees do cub fans may see a world series played at wrigley
Posted by: yankeeswilldoit09 | December 17, 2008 at 07:09 PM
1.96 ERA over 96 IP in 06/07, safe to say he's worth a shot
Posted by: CubbyFan23 | December 17, 2008 at 07:42 PM
Remember this
Saito did not do much in Japan, and then he destroyed the NL.
So a few million never hurts
