Helps the ballplayer in situations on and off the field!
If ballplayer is traded (e.g. Iguchi to Philly). . .
. . .
his interpreter may go with him to the new city!
The Sox have used Hiroshi Abei, Ryan McGuire, and David Yamamoto as interpreters. We don't know how much the Sox paid them, but we do know that the New York Yankees . . .
. . . pay their Japanese interpreters a $300,000 salary. Nice work if you can get it!
