Well, in the "who knows if its true because I dont know if these Japanese twitters are any more knowledgeable than the American ones" :

More than a couple of translated Japanese twitters say he's been awarded to Texas.

Yeah, the problem is discerning the other reporters that are using it as a source.

Based on the article that goes with the Tweet, it almost sounds as if they just had a collection of sources that reported bids...he uses the wording "Nippon will accept the bid."

Idk, I'm paranoid at this point I guess.

By the numbers...Yu is sick. 6'5 freak that hasn't thrown a season over a 2 ERA yet. Also threw 276/36 K/BB last season. Verlander last season threw 250/57 (Wilson with 206/74). Smart move by the Rangers.

Naturally he'll face Albert in his first season.

It appears as though this was Plan A all along.

I'm guessing the assumption was that CJ wasn't serious about returning.

JD though Yu was worth it...CJ? Not so much.

Pretty telling.
