No we did not sign any Jap pitchers! We don’t even have a scout in Japan!

Yes according to Philly.com, the Phils are apparently disputing the reports of these signings…

I am informed by mlbtraderumors.com that the Phillies never signed any Japanese Players to Minor Leagues.

Did we have to give up Kendrick to get them?

Interesting move. May pay dividends down the road for a japanese player. Doubtful, but maybe.

Does anyone know if they will make spring training? How is this going to play out?

I hope the Phils do not overlook the baseball talent in Finland.

Guzman has some potential to surprise, but those Japanese pitcher guys are likely to only be used as minor league filler.

Glad to see them continue to expand their horizons in terms of finding talent, though i’m not sure if either of these pitchers will be able to contribute much for the big club if they can’t even play in the Japanese majors.
