Hanwha Eagles Re-Sign Warwick Saupold

By Jeff Todd | November 5, 2019 at 8:39am CDT

With apologies to Warwick Saupold fans, the time isn’t yet right for a stateside return. The Aussie hurler has agreed to another year with Korea’s Hanwha Eagles, as Yonhap news reports.

Saupold will take home $1.2MM in total earnings, with the possibility of another $100K in incentives. That’s a nice payday for the former Tigers right-hander, who received 82 MLB relief appearances over three seasons but never entrenched himself on the Detroit roster.

As we noted recently, Saupold was among the former big leaguers that found success in the Korea Baseball Organization in 2019. Though he carried a less-than-exciting combination of 6.3 K/9 and 2.5 BB/9, he was able to keep the long ball in check (8 home runs) and produce strong results all year long. SaupoldĀ spunĀ 192 1/3 frames of 3.51 ERA ball for the Eagles.

    If he could not entrench himself on the Tiger roster, then the KBO is the place for him. Tigers have hardly fielded a MLB roster the past 3 years so coming back stateside would be a mistake for Saupold. Plus, he is making double the MLB minimum plus he has some incentives.
