Is it going to be the usual suspects here? Mariners, Angels, Dodgers, Yankees, Red Sox?

White Sox are going to offer a 100k bid and a contract worth $3 million dollars and pretend they are committed to winning still.

Giants in. watched kbo and NPB all year. this guy threw 2 no hitters including one this season. his last start in game 6 was outstanding.

Apparently some think he'll sign with the Mets. But I wouldn't be surprised if the Yankees signed him.
Would Rangers be in the mix?

Apparently Ross Atkins traveled to Japan three times last year to watch him, so I'd assume the Jays will have lots of interest in signing him.

Would have to think the Mets will have interest. They need starting pitching badly.

 

[John Price]

he and stanton apparently share the same agent

given his agent's rant warning players not to sign with NYY it is unlikely the Yankees will sign him lol

 

[kingsholygrail]

I hope the Dodgers are focusing more on him than Ohtani, honestly. We need the pitching desperately and who knows how Ohtani's arm is going to hold up going forward.

The easy solution is to just sign them both, should be a fair bit of money coming off the books this year with only Freeman and Mookie over 20 mil next year

& here I thought $60million for Darvish was jaw dropping.

 

[John Price]

judging by the rumor that he wants to play with Japanese teammates I would put the Mets and Sox up there on the list. I wouldn't be surprised if he went to the Mets.
