MLB To Void Deal Between Kim, Orioles
By Ben Nicholson-Smith [February 15, 2012 at 5:13pm CST]
Major League Baseball will void the contract between 17-year-old left-hander
Seong-Min Kim and the Orioles, Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com reports. The
move figures to improve relations between MLB and Korean baseball officials,
and it won't prevent the Orioles from signing Kim at a later date.
Soon after the Orioles announced their deal with Kim on January 30th the
Korea Baseball Organization and Korea Baseball Association bristled at the
breach of protocol. Baltimore completed a deal with Kim before he completed
high school, so he was suspended from playing or coaching in South Korea and
the Orioles were banned from scouting KBO games. The Orioles issued a formal
apology less than a week ago.
