Japanese Infielder Kazuma Okamoto in US for Meetings with Interested Teams

According to a report from Yahoo Japan, infielder Kazuma Okamoto is in the US to meet with teams as he nears the end of his 45-day posting window. He’s got less than a week left before his decision is due, so it’s safe to assume the pool of suitors is relatively small. The Angels, Blue Jays, Padres, Pirates, and Red Sox have all been strongly connected to Okamoto, with the Cubs and Diamondbacks also being mentioned as possibilities. If you’ve been following the Alex Bregman saga, you probably noticed the significant overlap in interested parties.
