Dodgers reach deal with Tsao
Oft-injured righty gets fresh start in Los Angeles
By Ken Gurnick / MLB.com
LOS ANGELES -- The Dodgers have acquired a right-handed counterpart to
left-hander Hong-Chih Kuo.
On Wednesday, they reached agreement with Chin-hui Tsao, like Kuo, a native
of Taiwan who signed for a whopping bonus only to have his career derailed by
multiple injuries.
Tsao, once the top prospect in the Colorado farm system, was non-tendered by
the Rockies after missing the entire 2006 season and most of 2005 with
shoulder labrum and rotator cuff problems. He underwent arthroscopic surgery
in May 2005 and hasn't pitched in a regular-season game since.
Tsao opened the 2005 season on the disabled list, was activated long enough
to convert three of his four career saves, then was disabled and never
returned. He has a 5.80 ERA in parts of three Major League seasons.
He was signed in 1999 to a $2.2 million bonus and underwent Tommy John elbow
reconstruction in 2001. Finally healthy in 2003, he spent half of a season
dominating in Double-A, then was promoted to the Major Leagues, where he made
eight starts. His shoulder problems surfaced the next spring, limiting him to
9 1/3 Major League innings in 2004.
In seven professional seasons, Tsao has 63 2/3 Major League innings. Kuo, who
has battled back from two Tommy John operations, has 65 Major League innings
in the same seven years.
