Does Japan need a working clock? Come on guys - times a tickin'

EDIT - Im not sure I can handle this announcement.... And truthfully, all I know about Darvish is maybe 8 minutes of YouTube videos and MLB radio for the last two weeks...

I'm not saying this Yu Darvish thing has been dragging on for too long, but the winning bid was submitted by the Expos.

Yahoo sports say the Rangers won? Or is this more useless rumors?

As a fan, too bad, ownership is long overdue for an investment in the jays and it will cost 3 or 4 of our top prospects to get a pitcher. Can't say I would have gambled 52 mil of my own money though...
