Korean Oh signs for Cards

South Korean pitcher Oh Seung-hwan has signed for the St Louis Cardinals on a one-year contract, the Major League Baseball club announced on Monday.

The 33-year-old right-hander joins the Cardinals from the Hanshin Tigers professional team in Japan. Terms of Oh’s deal have not been revealed although the St Louis Post-Dispatch reported the contract, which has a club option for 2017, was potentially worth US$5 million. Oh will complement a Cardinals bullpen that already consists of closer Trevor Rosenthal, Jonathan Broxton, Jordan Walden, Seth Maness and Kevin Siegrist. Oh has 357 career saves during his time playing in South Korea and Japan.
