Kenny,
Alex is 35 years old. He didn't bat his weight. I saw them play Durham. He, at that time, was striking out at a ratio of 1 to 3 at bats. AAA pitchers are good, but it looked like fast balls over-powered him.
Maybe he is going to play in CBL. I can't see him in NPB, based on what he did in AAA.

Ochoa might get a chance because of his track record, but I can't see who he would sign with. The only team I could think of is Chiba. Ochoa would be an improvement over Watson, but personally I don't see Chiba releasing Watson.
About
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.

It's nice to see Brian Sikorski back in NPB. I believe he'll be the third active foreigner who's played with three different NPB teams. Tuffy Rhodes and Greg LaRocca are the other two, although technically Rhodes played with the Buffs before.
