According to this topic, there is some interest by the Arizona Diamondbacks in Takatsu. The White Sox have 10 days to work out a trade with the Diamondbacks.

Yesterday,(July 18th) rumored that the Diamondbacks and White Sox were close to a deal for reliever Shingo Takatsu. Takatsu was designated for assignment by the White Sox on Monday(July 18th).

Diamondbacks GM Joe Garagiola Jr, said he wouldn't discuss specific players. Also the Diamondbacks have been looking for relief help, since closer Brandon Lyon was injured.

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
