caulfield12 Posted December 9 Share Posted December 9 (edited) Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki is expected to be posted during the meetings this week, The Post’s Jon Heyman confirmed Saturday, which will open a 45-day window in which clubs try to recruit him to their side. "The Mets already have agreed to a deal worth around $5 million with 17-year-old Dominican infielder Elian Peña, which represents a huge chunk of their budget. The club still could walk away from the contract, which is nonbinding, but doing so would harm its reputation and cost a top prospect. They also could look to trade for additional IFA funds. If the Mets believe they have a real shot at Sasaki, they surely would figure out a way to get him the necessary money." https://nypost.com/2024/12/07/sports/roki-sasaki-expected-to-be-posted-at-winter-meetings/ Roki Sasaki likely to be posted during the winter meetings with a 45 day negotiations window...

caulfield12 Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 (edited) Don Wakamatsu at least sounds Japanese, but pretty sure it was via Hawaiian islands originally. (We have a better chance here than we did with Harper...I guess., as long as Scott Boras isn't involved.) Hopefully they updated from Windows 98 and didn't have any technical glitches.
