Jon Daniels should have learned in 2011 that there’s no such thing as going incognito in a baseball stadium in Japan.
Cameras there have a way of finding executives from MLB teams, as they did six years ago when Daniels was taking a look at Yu Darvish, and pictures of said executives have a way of showing up on the covers of Japan newspapers’ Sports sections.
Such was the case again Thursday, when the Texas Rangers’ general manager was spotted with assistant GM Josh Boyd and Japanese scouts Joe Furukawa and Hajime Watabe at a Hiroshima Nippon Ham Fighters game.
