Mike Tauchman: Finds team in Korea

Tauchman is signing with the Hanwha Eagles of the Korea Baseball Organization on Thursday, Sung Min Kim of The Athletic reports.

Tauchman split the 2021 campaign between the Yankees and Giants, while also spending some time with Triple-A Sacramento. He hit a subpar .181/.284/.283 across 191 big-league plate appearances, so rather than waiting out the lockout in the hopes of landing a deal, he'll take an offer to play internationally. Tauchman is signing a one-year, $1 million deal, so he could have the option to return stateside in future seasons if he plays well with Hanwha.
