Open Thread: Yanks interested in Perez?

Hideki Matsui, projected to be the Yanks’ DH in 2009, will not be participating in the WBC, Ken Davidoff reported over the weekend. While a very big celebrity in Japan, Matsui is rehabbing another knee surgery, and the Yanks are not so keen on his playing during the tournament.

This year, however, the 34-year-old will focus on getting and staying healthy.
