▲ KT signs former NC player Logan Allen
The professional baseball team KT Wiz has signed Logan Allen, who played for the NC Dinos last season, as a temporary foreign replacement for pitcher Caleb Boesch, who is sidelined with a shoulder injury.
KT announced today (June 12) that they have signed a six-week contract with Logan for a total of $125,000.
Last season, Logan made 32 appearances for the NC Dinos, recording 7 wins, 12 losses, and a 4.53 ERA. He returned to the United States after failing to secure a contract renewal.
This season, he played for the Oklahoma City Comets, the Triple-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers in Major League Baseball, where he posted a 2-4 record with a 6.08 ERA in 12 games.
"Logan is a pitcher who has already adapted to the KBO League, having consistently maintained a spot in the starting rotation last season," said Na Do-hyun, general manager of KT. "We expect him to fill the void left by Boesch based on his experience and stable command."
Logan is scheduled to arrive in Korea the day after tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Boesch was removed from the first-team roster on June 2 due to right shoulder pain. A medical examination on June 8 revealed a shoulder muscle injury, requiring four to six weeks of rehabilitation.
