He speculates that if the Brewers are willing to part with Casey McGehee, they could potentially match up for a trade with Oakland given their need for pitching. 1:07pm: Rosenthal says that the Athletics also bid on Iwakuma (Twitter link) with the idea trading one of the excess starters for a bat if they landed him. The FoxSports.com scribe adds that the Rangers may have bid too low. 12:11pm: FoxSports.com's Ken Rosenthal tweets that the Rangers may be the high bidder for Japanese righty Hisashi Iwakuma. Last night we heard that the Mariners were the favorite to land him. In a second tweet, Rosenthal says that Texas definitely submitted a bid, but there's no guarantee that the Rakuten Golden Eagles will accept the high bid. They were seeking $16MM-17MM in the posting process. The Rangers had tremendous success bringing Colby Lewis over from Japan last year, so it makes sense that they'd explore that avenue again. Iwakuma is widely considered to be the second best starting pitcher in Japan behind Yu Darvish. The bidding closed last night, and reports out of Japan indicated that Seattle submitted a bid of $13MM. Iwakuma was also said to prefer the West Coast. ---------- 岩隈久志(29) G W L IP H HR BB SO ERA 2001 近鐵 9 4 2 43.2 46 3 13 25 4.53 2002 近鐵 23 8 7 141.1 132 10 42 131 3.69 2003 近鐵 27 15 10 195.2 201 19 48 149 3.45 2004 近鐵 21 15 2 158.2 149 13 30 123 3.01 2005 樂天 27 9 15 182.1 218 19 40 124 4.99 2006 樂天 6 1 2 38.2 43 4 12 16 3.72 2007 樂天 16 5 5 90 95 6 23 84 3.40 2008 樂天 28 21 4 201.2 161 3 36 159 1.87 MVP,澤村賞 2009 樂天 24 13 6 169 179 15 43 121 3.25 2010 樂天 28 10 9 201 184 11 36 153 2.82 通　算 209 101 62 1422 1408 103 323 1085 3.32 去年標Colby Lewis跟條子一樣出兩年約 不過沒標到 標到的話至少要用15M~20M --
