2040.06 TWC - River Monsters pondering extending C San-Duk Sim

C Sang-Duk Sim
Career Stats - 6 Seasons - .285 BA / .792 OPS / 103 HR's
- 6 All Star Games
- 1 Golden Bat (2039)

With a severe lack of veteran talent and excessive cap room available in 2041, the Twin City Front Office is pondering a short three year extension for the well rounded All Star Catcher, Sang Duk Sim.

Sim provides elite defense and solid hitting at the plate. He won the Frick League batting title in 2027 and brought home a Golden Bat last season. There's two excellent Catching Prospects in the Twin Cities Minor League system, 22 Year Old - Parker Davenport (POT 65) and 19 Year Old Joe Bradshaw (POT 65). Parker isn't quite ready for the BBA yet and could use another year in the Minors or spend a half season as a back up to Sim.

Originally, Sang-Duk Sim was requesting 6 years at approx $16 Million per season, but it's been recently revealed that he's open to three deal with a ballooned 1st year. A three year deal might fit benefit both parties nicely as the several young promising pitching prospects in the minors get ready to come up to the majors.

However, Sim would be certain to command top dollar in the Off Season if Twin Cities elects to let him walk.. or if Sim refuses to agree to a short term deal. Surprisingly, there were no interested teams in Sim when the River Monsters put up on the block earlier this season.

Me thinks that would greatly alter the market if Sim wasn't on it.

I was surprised there was apparently no market for him during the trade deadline.
