Happy new year!

Hello, I'm baseball fan in Seoul, South Korea.

Dustin Nippert signs Doosan Bears in Korea.

Doosan Bears is my favorite team. :)

Bears fans please to contract with Nippert.

He will replace Kelvin Jimenez (Ex-Cardinals) as starter.

Jimenez won 14 games during the regular season.

Kelvin Jimenez has signed a contract with the Rakuten Eagles of Japan's Pacific League.

A few day ago, Radhames Liz(former Orioles) has signed a contract with the LG Twins of the Korea Baseball Organization.

Doosan Bears and LG twins are rival.

a month ago, ex- Rangers Ryan Garko signed with Samsung Lions in Korea League.

Nice to see the Korean leagues trying to raise the talent level.

Nippert is a really hard thrower.

I think Nippert is better that Liz

Liz walks too many people. Also Nippert is a giant.

Liz walks EVERYONE.

Ambition is a poor excuse for not having sense enough to be lazy.

True, and kind of puzzling given some of the deals signed this winter

'Hey, Colby, Dusty Bewbs here, man. You said playin' in Korea was fun, right?'

‘The shit you mean Korea ain’t Japan? They still got the crazy fast trains and the vending machines with the dirty panties in ‘em in Korea, right?’

…

‘What the crap did I sign up for?’

….

‘What the hell is this North Korea crap? I’m gonna go pitch in a freakin’ war zone with no dirty panty vending machines?’
