With Japanese "monster pitcher" Rocky Sasaki (23, Chiba Lotte) announcing his entry into the Major League through a posting system (closed competitive bidding), interest in him is hot every day. Many Major League clubs are sending love calls, and the U.S. media is pouring out numerous articles. MLB.COM even evaluated that Sasaki could receive 300 million dollars (about 421.4 billion won) if he enters the U.S. as a free agent.

All this attention is focused on what kind of uniform Sasaki will wear after all. The Los Angeles Dodgers, which have senior Japanese players Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, are considered likely candidates. Dallas Keuchel, a Cy Young Award winner who played with Sasaki at Chiba Lotte this season, even interviewed that "I heard rumors that Sasaki signed a contract with the Dodgers."

However, a new argument has been made. It is noteworthy that he cannot go to the Dodgers due to realistic circumstances.온라인바카라

Jim Borden, a former Cincinnati general manager, said on "The Athletic" on Sunday that chances are low that Sasaki will play for the Dodgers, with San Diego, Tampa Bay, New York Mets and Atlanta the most likely. Many other teams are also participating in the race.

The reason why Sasaki is not going to the Dodgers is that if he plays in the U.S., he will become an FA after 2030. Since Sasaki is under 25 years old, he has to sign a minor league contract in accordance with the rules of the International Amateur Cyning Bonus Pool.

Sponsor contracts are important to maximize income before he becomes a FA, and Ohtani and Yamamoto already dominate it in the Dodgers. In fact, analysts say that New York Mets Senga Kodai has signed much more sponsorship contracts than Yamamoto because there is no big name like Ohtani on the team and can monopolize sponsors based on the New York market.

In addition, a team with a well-equipped team is essential for Sasaki, which still needs to be refined. Borden argues that San Diego, Tampa Bay and the New York Mets are much more advantageous than the Dodgers. In particular, San Diego has 38-year-old veteran Darvish, and Sasaki has the advantage of maximizing sponsorship profits while receiving mental assistance.

Competition among Major League teams is expected to heat up in earnest going forward as they can recruit a pitcher in his 20s who threw 165 kilometers per hour and led the World Baseball Classic to win without spending a lot of money. Sasaki is expected to choose a destination while observing each club's vision and various conditions.
