Some quotes & paraphrases from around the Japanese media on Hanshin’s impending acquisition of Craig Brazell:

• “It has become known that the negotiations between Hanshin and former Seibu Lion Craig Brazell have reached a basic agreement” (Nikkei Net)
• “The posibility of Brazell debuting for Hanshin on June 5  against Orix has increased… Brazell is coming to Japan on May 26th for a physical” (Nikkan Sports)
• “He likes Koshien! He likes yakiniku!” (Sanspo)

There you have it. The way this has played out, I wonder if the Tigers really ever considered anyone else.
