Nippon Ham Fighters right-hander Naoyuki Wusawa (29), who signed a minor league contract with the Tampa Bay Rays, will receive how much?
“MLB.com ” introduced the size of the contract with Woowa on the 20th local time.
According to them, the down payment is $25,000. The posting fee to the original team Nippon Ham is $6250, or 25% of the down payment.
If you are on the minor league roster, you will receive $225,000 a year, but if you sign a major league contract and make the 40-man list, it will increase to $2.5 million.
Wusawa will divide his annual salary of $2.5 million by the number of days he will be paid according to the number of days he remains on the Major League Baseball roster.
Incentives were also included. If you throw 70 innings, you will receive 100,000 dollars, and if you throw another 10 innings, you will receive an additional 100,000 dollars, and if you play 160 innings, you will receive up to 1 million dollars.
Nippon Ham will receive an additional 15% of the amount he receives in the major leagues in the 2024 season in the name of posting fees.
For Tampa Bay, it is a “low-cost, low-risk” contract. 라바카지노주소
It is still unclear how many opportunities Usawa will get. Tampa Bay is likely to have Jack Eflin, Aaron Civale, Jack Rittell, Ty Bradley and Ryan Peppiot in the opening rotation of the season. In addition, Shane Baz, Jeffling Springs, and Drew Rasmussen are preparing to return.
Uasawa, who has played in 173 games in nine seasons with 70 wins, 62 losses and a 3.19 ERA, was guaranteed a smaller amount and an unstable position than other pitchers who entered the Major League at the same time, including Yoshinobu Yamamoto (Dodgers, 10 years, $325 million) and Shota Imanaga (Cups, 4 years, $53 million).
After signing with Tampa Bay, he explained the reason why he chose Tampa Bay, saying, “It was interesting that I had a successful experience in fostering pitchers.”
