The Dodgers won the bidding war for Japanese right-handed starter Hiroki Kuroda, reaching an agreement Saturday on a three-year, $35.3 million contract. The Dodgers have set a press conference for noon PT Sunday to officially announce the deal. Kuroda, 32, will join a rotation that already features Brad Penny, Derek Lowe and Chad Billingsley. The fifth starter will come from a group of candidates that includes Jason Schmidt and Esteban Loaiza. Kuroda, who will become the seventh native of Japan to play for the Dodgers, was the Dodgers' primary pitching target this offseason, and his acquisition follows by a week the signing of free-agent outfielder Andruw Jones. The Dodgers have now addressed their two biggest needs -- a power bat and a legitimate starting pitcher -- without trading any of their young talent. Also in on the bidding for Kuroda were the Diamondbacks, Mariners and Royals. Kuroda went 12-8 for the Hiroshima Carp last year and has a 103-89 career record in Japan. His signing helps counter the Friday acquisition of Dan Haren by the Diamondbacks and allows Dodgers management to consider acquiring a veteran third baseman. --------------------------------------------------------- 躲人黑田 GET(3years / 35.3M) -- Pedro Martinez 10/25/1971 Age:36 NYM Starting Pitcher Ｃａｒｅｅｒ:W-L 209-93，SO 3030，ERA 2.80，SO/9:10.20，ERA+:161-1 1.3-Time Cy Young Award，8-Time All-Star，3-Time Strikeout Title 2.The highest ERA+ (161) in Major League History 3.Achievement:WHIP Title-6(.737 in 2000，breaking a record set by Walter Johnson.)，the highest winning percentage of any 200-game winner(.692) -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 122.126.76.94
