This is an article published by the New York Times. Great article that chronicles the journey of once promising Japanese pitcher Kei Igawa, a pitcher who signed a $20 million contract plus $26 million bidding rights with the Yankees only to last 16 games in the MLBs. Now, a pitcher who fluctuates between AA and AAA, he does whatever it takes to fit in and still find a reason to play the game he loves. Enjoy, courtesy of the New York Times.

Supposed to be the next big Japanese star, Kei Igawa never found a home on the Yankees' big league roster.
