Jeremy Johnson to Korea


According to the Astros website 27 year old righty Jeremy Johnson had his contract purchased from the Astros by the LG Twins of South Korea. ThJohnson had a 5-8 record with a 3.51 ERA in 21 games, including 13 starts, for Triple-A Round Rock this season. Johnson was originally signed by Houston as a Minor League free agent on Dec. 30, 2008. In 10 minor league seasons hes 62-47 with a 4.13 ERA. I guess its not really a big deal since it clears up some space to move up some younger guys if need be.
