are expected in the coming hours the signatures of John Smoltz and Brad Penny, two free agent pitcher, which will thicken the group of pitchers in Boston. The first expected to sign seems Smoltz: the 41 year-old veteran former Atlanta Braves pitcher is expected to sign the next few hours. The deal should be a 5-year contract million dollars, plus another 5 million in incentives. Born in 1967 in Warren, Michigan, Smoltz has on its record of 210 wins against 147 losses, an era of 3.26, 3,011 strikeouts and 154 salvations.
Wayne Brad Penny, who was born in 1978 in Blackwell, Oklahoma, has launched in the last four seasons for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Convened at the All Star Game in 2006 and 2007, Penny has assets in 1032 career strikeouts and 94 victories. It seems that will sign an annual contract from $ 5 million, that may increase for another 3 million with incentives.
The rotation of the Red Sox would seem at the moment consists of Josh Beckett, Jon Lester, Diasuke Matsuzaka, Tim Wakefield and Penny, Smoltz ready to fight with a spot just back from injury suffered on June 10.
