For some...About 16 hours now until bidding is done. For some reason, I have confidence the Yanks will get him. They've been scouting him for years (I believe), and even have a high school teammate of his as an Asian scout.<br /><br />He's probably the best FA pitcher available (and youngest), the posting bid doesn't count against the luxury tax, and you don't have to give up any draft picks (bc he's not from another ML team), so it all makes sense. I think Cashman realizes that, and that the Yanks need good, young pitching, and he certainly brings that. Plus he's got a chance to be a true Ace.<br /><br />I also hope to blog about him (as a successful Yankee) for years to come.Travis G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17451410553795367839noreply@blogger.com
