Perry: Report: Andruw Jones headed to Japan

Andruw Jones has signed a one-year contract worth roughly $3.5 million to play in Japan next season, reports Nikkan Sports (via NPBTracker.com). According to the report, the Rakuten Golden Eagles of the Japanese Pacific League have inked Jones…

The 35-year-old Jones has to his credit 434 career home runs and one of the best defensive peaks ever at his position, so he’ll one day be in the Hall-of-Fame discussion (even if he’s something of a long shot to make it)...

If nothing else, he’s one of the biggest names ever to cross the Pacific and play in NPB.
