SF is also missing... Imanaga remains with Boston, Cubs, and Angels before recruitment

 The San Francisco Giants are expected to withdraw from the recruitment of Japanese pitcher Shota Imanaga (29).


Columnist Jim Bowden, a former U.S. Major League Baseball (MLB) general manager, quoted an industry source on his social network service (SNS) on the 7th (Korean time) and said, "San Francisco is not currently prioritizing Imanaga."

The day before, Bowden pointed out four teams, including the Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, and Los Angeles Angels, as well as San Francisco, as final candidates for Imanaga's recruitment.

However, the atmosphere in San Francisco has changed. San Francisco brought in former Cy Young Award winner Robbie Ray through a trade the day before. It is highly likely that the club, which has strengthened its starting lineup with the addition of Ray, will not actively recruit Imana, who requires a large investment. Locally, it is expected that Imanaga will sign a contract worth around 100 million dollars.

“San Francisco is still interested in signing various free agents even after acquiring Ray,” Bowden said, but explained that Imanaga is not a priority.

With San Francisco excluded, Boston, Cubs, and Angels are expected to compete for the final time to recruit Imana.

Imanaga, who played in the Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) and is challenging MLB through the posting system, recorded a career record of 64 wins, 50 losses, and an ERA of 3.18 in the NPB. Imanaga's deadline for negotiations to advance to MLB is the 12th.
