It’s time we consider signing Trevor Bauer
FromJapan replied to Hufflepuff's topic in LA Angels | MLB Daily
An English translation of the Japanese newspaper article below. Mexico Red Devils, who have a short-term contract with Trevor Bauer, who played last season for Yokohama DeNA, announced that they will extend his contract by one month. In response to a press interview, DeNA's Team General Manager Hagiwara commented, "We have always had the intention of acquiring him and have been negotiating. His agent told us about that, and we think it's unfortunate." Hagiwara was informed in advance through Bauer's agent that there was a possibility of extending his contract. He currently has three wins in the Mexican League. The original contract deadline was the 8th. Source in Japanese: Kanagawa Shimbun (a local newspaper in Yokohama, Kanagawa, Japan) on May 5th, 2024.

Bauer revealed in an interview with the Nihon Keizai Shimbun (Japan Economics Newspaper) that he had received offers from multiple NPB teams. He is scheduled to pitch 5 games in Mexico until early May. If no MLB team wants to acquire him, there is a possibility that he will return to Japan.

Above is my POST in 2021. In 2006, 18 years ago, Ippei had been looking for a job, and the chef hired him. Ippei had stated that he graduated from the UC Riverside in 2007. I was a little suspicious of about his background, whether he was attending the university while working. But I thought the Angels would have looked into his background when hiring him, so I left my doubt open.

The following was from an article of a Japanese sports paper: Until last season, I had met Mizuhara several times by chance at a Starbucks near Angel Stadium. When ordering, the name he gave to the clerk was always "Jay." At the time, he said, "I thought it would be difficult for people in the United States to call me 'Ippei'."

In Japanese, it is possible to converse using syntax that omits the subject. The listener must judge who is the subject based on the situation, but even native Japanese speakers can sometimes make mistakes. I will translate Ohtani's remarks about his first home run ball into English. "Upon returning to the bench, I learned that a staff member had spoken to the fan who caught my first home run ball. She had decided to return it to me. It's a very special ball for me, so I'm incredibly grateful."

When will Roki Sasaki be available for MLB?
FromJapan replied to Chuck's topic in LA Angels | MLB Daily
Some quotes from the article below: Just when you think the Dodgers can't possibly sign any more stars, several GMs believe that Roki Sasaki, 22, one of the best pitchers in the world, already has plans to sign with the Dodgers after the season. “Every team in baseball wants this guy," one GM told USA TODAY Sports, “but there's no way he's going anywhere else but the Dodgers. We all know it." (USA TODAY on March 31, 2024) With Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers' Big 3 of MVPs is a 'scary' proposition | Nightengale's Notebook -
Ippei will be introduced in a chapter titled "People Who Support Success" in the English textbook for third-year junior high school students from the Japanese publisher KYOIKU-SHUPPAN, which is scheduled to be adopted from spring 2025. The company commented, "We have no choice but to consider the possibility of replacing the content." Reference in Japanese: The Asahi Shimbun on March 22.

FromJapan replied to Hufflepuff's topic in LA Angels | MLB Daily
Dodgers' minor league players are set to face the Asian Breeze in a game on March 10th in Glendale, Arizona. Bauer is expected to take the mound for the Asian Breeze, a traveling team based in Arizona that operates solely during the spring season, for approximately three innings. Bauer will be taking the mound due to his prior connection with the Asian Breeze manager. (Source in Japanese: Nikkan Sports, March 7th) Link in Japanese: the Asian Breeze -
