The now back-to-back CL champs Hanshin Tigers have been prepared for a while to bring in a big time foreign hitting talent for 2027.
Per sources, they had Franmil Reyes🇩🇴 and Miguel Sanó🇩🇴 at the top of their offseason wishlist. But both decided to stay with their teams.
A not so shocking pivot would be 1B Bobby Dalbec🇺🇸, if he considers to test the NPB Free Agent Market. Which would create a money battle between the big rivals.
Dalbec demolished the Tigers with 9 HR,18 RBI and a .621 SLG/.964 OPS in 25 games.
