I'm interested in this mathematical formula you have? Can you explain it or is it proprietary?

<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I thought Dice-K was more like $80-90M when both the posting fee and salary were added together.

Wow. That's the biggest international signing the Cubs have made yet I believe.

Where's the trademark Scarey scouting report? What can we expect?
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I ain't got shit for you on this one. This is a completely out of left field signing not unlike most of the Korean signings. My guess is we'll have to wait till Oneri Fleita makes a public statement about him.
Coincidentally, I have a friend in Korea right now. I'll ask if he's hearing anything locally on what kind of player this guy is. The fact that the Cubs signed him for 1.2 million dollars with next to no competition for him tells me that he's got huge upside though.

I would bet my life that Horn has heard nothing of this Korean man.

21% of all Koreans are named Kim. Maybe he'll know a cousin or two.
