Yankees sent Oppenheimer and Eppler to Japan to look in on Yu Darvish.
2014(the earliest Darvish can become and International Free Agent) is so far away. The kid's got stuff, but Japanese pitchers haven't fared well here in the states. Matsuzaka sorta fizzled out quick, and Igawa is the worst $45 mil. we ever spent.
Maybe the next WBC will change my mind.
