Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters on Friday that the team hasn't met and doesn't have a meeting scheduled with free agent RHP Tatsuya Imai to this point.

As his posting windows enters its final stretch, Japanese pitcher Tatsuya Imai could be traveling to the United States as the New York Yankees and Philadelphia Phillies await for his MLB decision.

Aaron Boone spent his Friday afternoon handing out food and toys at a charity event hosted by the NYPD’s 44th precinct in the Bronx. There, he talked about some of the Yankees’ free agent

The top Japanese free-agent pitcher doesn't want to be a Dodger and that could be a good development for the Yankees.

Yamamoto and Sasaki both went to the Dodgers and joined fellow Japanese baseball star Shohei Ohtani. The Dodgers have won the last two World Series, with Yamamoto earning MVP honors in 2025 and Sasaki playing a crucial role in the bullpen down the stretch in the latest championship.

Tatsuya Imai explains context behind his earlier remarks about the Dodgers, calling reaction natural as he reflects on his comments.

The latest on Bregman could be bad news for Boston, while the hottest pitcher on the market has yet to appear in an MLB game.

The Yankees have committed $704 million for Cole, Fried and Rodon. For 2026, the trio is set to earn a combined $90.25 million from their annual salaries, with all three just behind Aaron Judge on the Yankees' payroll. Adding Imai will further bloat those figures.
