The sweepstakes for Yoshinobu Yamamoto appear to be winding down, but the Red Sox have made their pitch for the Japanese phenom.
The Red Sox have held their meeting with Yamamoto and he could make his decision in the next few days, MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand reported Saturday.
It’s unclear when the Red Sox held their meeting with Yamamoto. It was reported earlier in the week that they had a meeting planned with Yamamoto in California. As of Thursday, the Red Sox had either met or were still planning to meet with Yamamoto, The Boston Globe’s Alex Speier reported.
