Red Sox offer Kenshin Kawakami a deal he may accept

3 years, for 21 million. Rotoworld says that he has good control, but a below average fastball. Since becoming a Red Sox fan, I have been really happy with their moves, and this is a great one-if it happens. 3rd starter capability, perhaps? I was also thinking about comments I got regarding the other Japanese inkage, in Tazawa. I may have set too high of expectations for him. However, I have to look at a video clip of this guy to really be able to judge him better.

According to the Globe

There’s no offer.

I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

What Drugs said.

Also, if you’re going to post a story like Kawakami’s signing, please include a source. Without a source, a FanPost like this is nothing but speculation masquerading as news.

I'm intrigued

I’d like to sign him. But of course the downside is Igawa…
