Those pitchers make at the most $3-4 million per year so whatever he is offered by a Major League club will definitely be more than he'll make here in Japan as an old veteran. I'd give him $2 million max per season. 3707244 2008-12-18T12:07:31-05:00 112 NY .talkingNYsports.com New York 623254 1 I can't imagine that he will go for more than $20 million considering his age and the current economic situation in baseball. from talkingNYsports_dot_com 3700314 2 <p>Japanese left-hander <strong>Koji Mitsui&nbsp;</strong>will be posted beginning Thursday, Major League Baseball informed all teams this afternoon. All teams have a chance to bid on the 35-year-old pitcher through the posting system for three business days (the deadline for bids is 5 p.m. next Tuesday). Mitsui is 36-19 with a 4.41 ERA lifetime.</p> <p>Mitsui's old Seibu Lions teammate, <strong>Daisuke Matsuzaka,</strong> was awarded to the Boston Red Sox two winters ago through the&nbsp;same system for a record $51 million posting&nbsp;fee.</p> http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/100/64/thumb/Heyman_Jon.png 0 NY Jon Heyman New York 10084 33442
