ANALYSIS
Watanabe has been one of the top pitchers in Japan as he was a member of Japan's World Baseball Classic teams in 2006 and 2009. However, he's struggled the past two seasons and it's not clear if he'll be able to reach the majors at age 37. Watanabe threw just 25.1 innings last season with a 4.62 ERA and 9:9 K:BB ratio for the Lotte Marines.
