Red Sox Could Go After Japanese Pitcher Junichi Tazawa

Junichi Tazawa announced that he was interested in playing with a Major League team in the U.S. instead of playing in Japan. Here's what Rotoworld said about him ealier this month:

The Red Sox, Braves and Mets are among the teams reportedly targeting 22-year-old Japanese pitcher Junichi Tazawa.
Tazawa is slated to be an early pick in Japan's draft, but there's nothing preventing him from signing with an MLB team first. He reportedly throws 97 mph, though that may be an exaggeration, and shows a quality slider. There's been no indication yet of what kind of contract he might get.
