Arizona Diamondbacks introduce Yoshihisa Hirano

“My names is Yoshihisa Hirano. Please call me Yoshi. Thank you for coming today. I am happy to be a member of the D-backs.” That’s how the second Japanese player to sign with the Diamondbacks began his press conference at Salt River Fields yesterday. He signed a two-year, $6 million contract in December, and is expected to stand alongside Brad Boxberger and Archie Bradley at the pointy end of the Arizona bullpen this year, Which of them will actually be the team’s designated closer, is something which will be worked out over the course of spring training.
