The New York Yankees have sent scouts to Japan to evaluate right‑hander Kaima Taira, a 2026 breakout star for the Saitama Seibu Lions. Taira posted a 1.36 ERA over 146 innings, a 12–5 record and a 0.188 opponent batting average, while capping his season with a 98.8 mph fastball. After a 31‑save closer role in 2025, he now boasts an elite ground‑ball profile and a minuscule 0.25 HR/9 innings. The Yankees, amid offseason planning and roster questions surrounding Jazz Chisholm Jr., see Taira as a potential middle‑rotation starter or high‑leverage bullpen arm for the 2027 season.

Brewers right‑hander Dustin May says the 2026 World Series against the Tampa Bay Rays means more to him than the 2020 title he won with the Dodgers.
