Former Mariners catcher Kenji Johjima has signed with the Hanshin Tigers of Japan's Central League.
The 33-year-old walked away from the nearly $16 million remaining on his Mariners' contract in order to return to Japan. He considered returning to his former club, the Softback Hawks of the Pacific League, but ultimately signed a four-year deal with the Tigers worth approximately $21 million.

Kenji Johjima's agent confirmed Monday evening that the Mariners won't have to pay a dime of the $16 million remaining on his client's contract.
In case there were still any doubters out there. "He walks completely on his contract here, and we start fresh,'' the agent, Alan Nero said Monday. "He's made this decision without regard to financial consequence. He's a free agent in Japan, and I'll negotiate the best offer I can." Johjima opted out of his contract with the Mariners in a surprise move Monday afternoon.

General manager Jack Zduriencik clarified details on Kenji Johjima opting out of his contract, explaining that the Mariners did not pay him a buyout.
Original reports had Seattle compensating Johjima an undisclosed amount for leaving the final two years and $16 million of his contract on the table to return to Japan, but Zduriencik made it clear that wasn't a factor. He added that the Mariners could be in the market for a catcher if they decide not to simply turn the position over to prospect Adam Moore and Rob Johnson.

Kenji Johjima announced Monday that he's opting out of the final two seasons of his contract with the Mariners to resume his career in Japan.
According to Larry LaRue of the Tacoma News Tribune, Johjima came to an undisclosed buyout agreement with the Mariners after being told that he'd likely be a backup in 2010. Seattle will be off the hook for the final two years and $16 million on the ill-advised contract extension that Johjima received from former general manager Bill Bavasi, which is very good news given that he's 33 years old and hit just .235/.284/.361 over the past two seasons. As of now Rob Johnson and prospect Adam Moore are atop the Mariners' catching depth chart.
