Free agent and utility infielder Toshihisa Nishi, who has apparently drawn interest from the Pittsburgh Pirates, put on hold a two-year contract offered by the [Yomiuri] Giants in their talks Tuesday.The 33-year-old Nishi told the Tokyo-based Central League team that it is difficult for him to respond immediately whether he will return for a 10th season as he hopes to find himself among the players on the checklist of teams at the Dec. 10-13 Major League Baseball winter meetings.
Sounds like the Pirates are getting creative in their search for appropriate free-agent signings. But how do we need another utility infielder? Is he left-handed? What's the angle here?
