*The latest news has 8 MLB teams checking out righty Min-Tzu Chen:
At the invitation of his agent (Jack Fang of Rights Inc.), scouts from the Cubs, Mariners, Royals, Tigers, Braves, A's, Pirates, and the Red Sox went to Taichung to watch RHP Min-Tzu Chen pitch, including Royals' International Scouting Director Rene Francisco and Mariners' Pacific Rim Scout Pat Kelly. RHP Chen faced Elephants star OF/DH Cheng-Min Peng and got Peng to ground out. RHP Chen pitched 2 innings without giving up a hit and had 2 strikeouts, topping out at 92 mph. An interesting note is that the CTBA and Student Baseball Association allowed RHP Chen to participate in the tournament even though he has official agent representation.
Here's Chen's facebook page. The kid'll need to watch what he posts since you never know who (future employers?) may be perusing his page:
"... Yesterday I got drunk~ Drunk to the point that I went home without any clothes on~ Unbelievable~"
"... Drunk isn't the point~ The point is I was able to go home wearing only pants~ Unbelievable~"
*CJ Lo impressive
*Che-Hsuan Lin is in the starting lineup for the Red Sox's Wed. game versus Northeastern.
*Fu-Te Ni is scheduled to pitch tomorrow.
