"My expectations are that well get something done," Ryan said Thursday night, then added the term "optimistic." The Rangers last month bid a record US$51.7 million under the posting system to win the right to negotiate with the 25-year-old Darvish, considered Japans best pitcher. The 30-day negotiating window for the two-time defending American League champions ends Wednesday at 4 p.m. CT. Ryan declined to elaborate on negotiations, but didnt express any concern about the possibility of them going down to the wire. "Thats the nature of these things," Ryan said before a team awards show that kicked off the Rangers annual winter FanFest weekend. The six-foot-five Darvish last week visited Texas for the first time with his representatives and family members. He visited Rangers Ballpark and met with team officials, including Ryan, before returning home to Japan. "Obviously, he was bigger than I thought," Ryan said. "I thought hes built like a pitcher. He looks good. I think he understands a lot of English and I just like his attitude about wanting to compete. To me, he represented all I had been led to believe, so I felt really good about it." Thats quite a compliment coming from Ryan, the hard-throwing Texan who played a record 27 major league seasons and is baseballs career strikeout king. The Rangers, who have been scouting Darvishs games in Japan for at least two years, only pay the $51.7 million posting fee if he signs with them. Darvish, the son of an Iranian father and a Japanese mother, went 18-6 with a 1.44 ERA last season for the Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters. He had 276 strikeouts to lead the Pacific League. Darvish, who turned pro at 18, pitched in the 2008 Beijing Olympics and was a member of the Japanese team that won the 2009 World Baseball Classic. The right-hander has superb control and throws seven effective pitches. "Ive never seen any film on him, but heard that hes very good," Michael Young, the Rangers longest-tenured player, said with a smile. "Very good players are always welcome." Texas has lost its No. 1 pitcher in free agency after each of the last two World Series. Cliff Lee left after the 2010 season to return to Philadelphia, and left-hander C.J. Wilson agreed to a $77.5 million, five-year contract with the AL West rival Los Angeles Angels last month. "I think everybodys pretty optimistic that well sign Yu Darvish and hopefully he can bring a lot to this team," outfielder David Murphy said. "All I know is what Ive seen on TV. ... He looks like hes got electric stuff." Wholesale Jerseys China .
