The San Francisco Giants have finally landed a big-name free agent. The Giants and South Korean outfielder Jung Hoo Lee have agreed to a six-year contract worth $113 million, CBS Sports HQ's Jim Bowden confirmed. The contract includes an opt out after four years, according to the New York Post's Jon Heyman. The team has not yet confirmed the signing.
Lee, 25, spent the last seven seasons with the Kiwoom Heroes of the Korea Baseball Organization and is one of the greatest players in league history. For his career, he owns a .340/.407/.491 batting line with 65 home runs, 69 stolen bases, and more walks than strikeouts. Lee slashed .318/.406/.455 in 86 games this past season before an ankle injury ended his season in August.

For tax purposes he gets four chickens, three pigs and a goat per year. $112m is deferred until 2042.

Not an insult...no matter what your high school teacher whined about.
Geographic term.
So Korea is in the Orient, ergo Oriental.

Love this. But, they need to go after some pitching. That rotation last year stunk up the joint.

Their approach to go after rehab projects will work bigly some years, but not so much others.
