What happened to Trey Moore?
I just heard the Tigers fired Moore. Not fired, exactly, they didn't pick up his option to renew his contract. He was expecting to be with the Tigers next season. He had a pretty good year, what happened? Was it performance - or was it something else? I heard that he and Hoshino-kankoku did not get on well.

Moore to Join BlueWave
[ Author: PLNara | Posted: Dec 24, 2003 2:38 AM | HT Fan ]

Moore is set to be announced as a member of Orix some time this week. I think he had wanted a multi-year contact, but Hanshin wouldn't give him one, so they parted ways.

Yes indeed, Trey Moore has joined Orix. Hanshin's loss is certainly the Blue Wave's gain. Orix seems to be making some good acquisitions this winter; I hope they'll do a bit better than last season.

Anyway, good luck to Trey Moore, and thank God he won't be pitching and batting against Hanshin.
About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
