April 24, 2005 - Colorado Rockies released infielder Andy Tracy from Triple-A Colorado Springs so he could pursue an opportunity in Japan.

Any word on what team is about to sign Tracey?

This guy could help the Eagles. He batted .315 with 33 home runs and 120 RBIs last year at Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Tracy will recieve a 50 million yen contract from the Eagles. He will arrive in Japan by the end of the month. Tracy should a be a good left-handed power bat for the Eagles.

Rakuten also said that they plan on adding another foriegn player. [Link - Japan Ball]

Rakuten should definitely think about getting a good foreigner, and so far, I think Tracy was a right pick.

I played with Andy from 10 years old thru college. He's got a big stick and is fun to watch. He's a 30+ home run guy.
