Well, that was quick. No sooner did I find out Rudy Seanez was talking to the Dodgers, they have apparently agreed to terms.
Right-hander Rudy Seanez and the Dodgers have agreed to a minor league contract that could pay the veteran relief pitcher $1.2 million if he meets performance incentives.
Seanez, a 15-year veteran who split last season with the Boston Red Sox and San Diego Padres, would make $700,000 if he makes the team and get $100,000 for each five appearances beginning at 45 and ending at 65.
The photo and caption accompanying the story was hilarious:
Remember the game-winning homer Nomar Garciaparra hit in the magical four-consecutive homers game? He hit it off then-Padres reliever Rudy Seanez, who was signed by the Dodgers on Monday.
Maybe he’s good luck for LA? ;)
A couple of other notes:
Left-handed reliever Joe Beimel remains the only arbitration-eligible player who hasn’t signed, and the Dodgers have explored signing left-hander Joey Eischen, who missed most of last season after having surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff.
Eischen, 36, has been throwing off a mound for two months and is expected to be ready for spring training.
