"Yuuuuu!".... no not Youkilis... Yu Darvish!

Yu Darvish, born half Iranian and half japanese, is only 22 years old and has been very impressive in his time with the Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters.

Look for more than just the Yankees and Red Sox to be in the bidding for this young kid, he really has nasty stuff. He mixes his pitches very well with a great changeup, nasty breaking ball, and a fastball reportedly thrown in the mid 90s.

here's the link to a video of Yu Darvish absolutely dominating... enjoy :)

Yes, i know... he looks very good... and do i see a hint of Mariano Rivera in his delivery? Just don't get too excited, he probably won't be posted until after the 09 season.
