    Orioles MLB voids deal with Kim

    According to MASN's Roch Kubatko, Major League Baseball will void the contract of Seong-Min Kim.
    The Korean Baseball Organization issued a permanent ban on Orioles scouts and filed a complaint with MLB earlier this month after the 17-year-old left-hander broke protocol and signed a contract state-side. O's executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette has called the whole ordeal a mix-up, but Major League Baseball is clearly trying to do its part to patch things up with the KBO. Kim is expected to hit the free agent market again at a later date.
    Wow! I didn't realize there was a permanent ban from the KBO. Duquette kind of screwed the Orioles from a pool of talent in Korea. I wonder if the Orioles can re-sign him when Kim becomes a free agent again.

    It's okay. They still have their New Zealand youth softball talent pipeline.

    Can't blame Duke, he hasn't been in baseball for a decade.
