After the Yankees acquired someone, in
Jamie Hoffmann, the Dodgers did not want on their 40-man roster, the Dodgers returned the favor, in a way.
The
Dodgers have signed pitcher
Josh Towers to a minor league deal, according to the
Associated Press. Towers, who turns 33 in February, put up a 2.74 ERA in 19 appearances (18 starts) with the Triple A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
Yankees in 2009. He started 2009 in the
Nationals' system, but was released after just one appearance with Triple A Syracuse. The Yankees called up Towers twice during the season, but he appeared in just two September games in mop-up duty. He is a low walk, low strikeout pitcher, averaging 1.5 walks and 4.8 walks per nine innings in his major league career.
Towers has a split contract that will pay him $700,000 in the major leagues, and $100,000 while in the minor leagues.
다저스가 조쉬 타워스(Josh Towers)와 마이너 딜을 맺었습니다. 빅리그에 올라오면 70만불을 받고, 마이너에 있으면 10만불을 받는다는군요.
올해는 네츠와 양키스 트리플 A팀에서 뛰었는데, 뭐 네츠 마이너에서는 사실상 안뛴거나 다름 없는 이닝(1.2이닝동안 6피안타 4실점)이때문에 무시하셔도...암튼 양키스 마이너에서는 19경기(18선발)에서 좋은 투수를 해줬다는군요.
05시즌에 토론토에서 3점대 ERA와 200이닝이상을 소화했던 적이 있군요. 말 그대로 로또입니다.
