Title: Here we go again...Boston interested in Yu Darvish.
Post by: MaineDolFan on October 25, 2011, 08:32:12 am
You would think they would learn.

If you don't know who Yu Darvish is...I will give you a hint.

He is a superstar pitcher.  In Japan.

Sigh.

Oddly enough, I consider Darvish pretty much at the same level of talent as I did Matsuzaka before he came to the US to play.

Pony up those millions for the right to talk to him...yeesh.

His numbers are amazing, but how many Japanese failures have there been so far? Too many to count.

Oddly, I would probably prefer him over CJ Wilson as Yu would just cost money(most of which won't be luxury taxed), and not the loss of a draft pick. Still, $40 Million to TALK to a player is ridiculous.

Well, at least his name is easier to spell.

Hard to screw up "Yu."  Darvish sounds downright European.

If he has a wild delivery, you could also start calling him the Whirling Darvish...

i heard toronto is interested in Yu Darvish. of course i have also heard the link to Prince Fielder and Joey Votto. and lately CC Sabathia, so i shouldn't get my hopes up.

Toronto has a shot at Ortiz if they overpay. They have no shot with anyone else.
