Do you have Seguignol's contract info - I haven't seen it elsewhere. Incidentally, this is a wonderful site - I must have recommended it to 20 people by now.

According to the player meikan I have, Seguignol is earning 7,000-man (70,000,000) yen this year.

I went to college with Gregg LaRocca. I have followed his baseball career and would like to know what his salary is for 2004. How long is his contract for?

Thank you,

Rich Wicker

It looks like LaRocca is earning 2700-man and I'd be shocked if he were on anything but a one year deal. His page elsewhere on this site is here.

He's off to a nice start, by the way (.308/.378/.615) - I'm a little surprised by his pop, but he was a good pickup for the Carp.

LaRocca and I were teammates at UMASS and I'll tell you, this guy has been crushing the ball his whole career. I'm not surprised at all. He'll be up there with the league leaders all season long. Go Carp!
