Over 20 scouts from over 10 teams went to watch Japan pitcher Yu Darvish face the Chicago Cubs in an exhibition game. Darvish, 22, did not disappoint. The right-hander threw two scoreless innings while hitting 96 mph on the radar gun. Darvish also threw his slider and two-seam fastball, but the appearance of his curveball is uncertain.
Darvish has shown no signs of interest in make the jump to Major League Baseball anytime soon, but when he does, he’ll certainly draw a lot of interest.
