7 mins agoThe Texas Rangers met with Japanese free-agent right-hander Roki Sasaki in person last week, and general manager Chris Young said the meeting went well. "We really enjoyed our time, but that's about the extent of anything I will say on that today," Young said. In addition to the Rangers, Sasaki has also met with the Chicago Cubs, New York Mets and New York Yankees. The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres have been considered the front-runners for the 23-year-old, though, after he was officially posted by the Chiba Lotte Marines of Nippon Professional Baseball on Dec. 9. He has a 45-day window to sign with an MLB club. Sasaki is widely regarded as one of the best young pitchers in the world, but he comes with durability concerns -- he's maxed out at 20 starts in a season due to injuries -- and has also seen his strikeout rate drop in recent years due to his planned drop in velocity.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
