Via MLB Trade Rumors: The Cubs are in agreement with NPB left-hander Shota Imanaga on a deal, as first reported by Bob Nightengale of USA Today. The contract is pending a physical, which is scheduled for Wednesday. Imanaga’s deal must be finalized before his 45-day posting window closes at 5:00 pm EST on Thursday. Jon Morosi of MLB.com reported the deal will pay around $15MM annually over multiple seasons. That surprisingly takes the form of a two-year guarantee in the $30MM range, reports Jim Bowden of the Athletic. Bowden and Jon Heyman of the New York Post each suggest the contract contains various team/player options and escalators and could max out around $80MM.The Yankees have held “productive” discussions with free agent right-hander Marcus Stroman recently, reports Jon Morosi of MLB.com. There’s no indication that a deal is close at this time, but USA Today’s Bob Nightengale reported over the weekend that the Long Island native had expressed interest in pitching for the Yankees (though the team hadn’t made an offer at the time). Julio Urias and Wander Franco updates as well 📝
