[Heyman] Seibu Lions say they are going to post star pitcher Tatsuya Imai. The righty who throws up to 99 mph should be one of the top 3 free agent pitchers, along with Dylan Cease and Framber Valdez.
November 10, 2025
Tatsuya Imai will be represented by Scott Boras and his agency, Boras Corporation.

Another one the Dodgers have probably already come to an agreement with last year.
I refused to get hopes up for top overseas players now.
Great another dashed hope going to wear blue.


Japanese player & Boras as his agent. Please OP 😂

At this point it is safe to assume that any big Japanese player is likely already going to get picked up by the Dodgers
I DON’T CARE IF ROKI DISAPPOINTED US I STILL HAVE FAITH
He already agreed to sign with the Dodgers. Now comes the part where he gets some free dinners courtesy of several MLB teams
I’m sure they saw that timing is excellent—hefty premium on Starting Pitching with FAs right now.
There is no point in spending any time or effort on any Japanese player. They are signing with the Dodgers. The Japanese league is just another farm team for the Dodgers.


1. we can’t afford him.
2. The Dodgers can afford him and already have a contract with, deferring $25M/year.
Hand shake agreement already happened with dodgers.. next
He’s a Dodger
Oh I can’t wait for a bow tie to tell us there is a chance. Not getting my hopes up in the slightest.
