Hanshin Tigers to make Shintaro Fujinami available for potential move to MLB

The Hanshin Tigers have decided to make flamethrower Shintaro Fujinami available to MLB clubs through the posting system in the offseason, a source at the Central League club said Saturday.

The 28-year-old right-hander had told Hanshin of his desire to move to MLB during the past offseason before making a public announcement in September. Both parties are expected to hold talks in the near future.
