Voit signed with Milwaukee.
On March 28 (Korean time), MLB.com, the official homepage of Major League Baseball, announced that the Milwaukee Brewers had signed a contract with Luke Voit.
According to MLB.com, Milwaukee signed Voit to a one-year + one-year contract with a club option for 2024. The contract amount was not disclosed.
Voit, who was released as a non-tender after finishing last season with the Washington Nationals, signed a minor league contract with Milwaukee in February. Voight, who showed compliance by recording .308/.357/.513, 2 home runs and 4 RBIs in 15 exhibition games, declared an opt-out on the 26th after failing to join the big league roster. However, he did not leave the team and continued negotiations, eventually winning a big league contract. 온라인카지노
Voight, a right-handed first baseman born in 1991, was selected by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 22nd round of the 2013 draft and made his big league debut in 2017. Traded to the New York Yankees during the 2018 season, Voight rose to stardom with the Yankees showing off his slugging prowess.
Voight, who hit 22 homers in the shortened season in 2020 and became the home run king, played 281 games in four seasons with the Yankees, hitting .271/.363/.520 with 68 homers and 182 RBIs. Ahead of the 2022 season, he was traded to the San Diego Padres, but he was sluggish and was included in the Juan Soto trade last summer and wore a Washington uniform. Last season, he hit .226/.308/.402 with 22 home runs and 69 RBIs in 135 games for both teams.
His total performance in six seasons in the big leagues was .254/.342/.476, 95 homers, and 272 RBIs in 486 games. Voight is expected to share first base and designated hitter with Rowdy Telles, a left-handed hitter this season.
