Igawa is expected to arrive in New York and take his physical on Wednesday, though the Yankees may not officially announce a deal with the pitcher until after the holidays. A press conference could take place at the stadium, though that might not be until after New Year's Day.
Igawa's five-year, $20 million contract has not yet been finalized, and the Associated Press reports that the Yankees and agent Arn Tellem are still negotiating the year-to-year breakdown of Igawa's salary and what performance bonuses will be included.
Igawa will join Pettitte, Chien-Ming Wang, Mike Mussina, Randy Johnson and Carl Pavano as starters on the Yankees, with Igawa and Pavano likely to battle for the fifth starter's spot. Johnson is recovering from back surgery, so both pitchers could open the year in the rotation if the Big Unit isn't ready by Opening Day.
The Yankees won Igawa's negotiating rights on Nov. 28, outbidding several other teams, including the Mets. New York and Arn Tellem, who represents Igawa, have until midnight on Dec. 28 to come to an agreement, or Igawa would have been returned to Hanshin.

と言っても、2000ドルの毎年の年俸金額とインセンティブを決めるだけのようだ。ペティットの加入により、パバノと5番手争いとあるが、4人の投手が万全ではないので、チャンスは十分にある。
