Hot stove league time, fans. Or should that be the hot hibachi league here in Japan? Lots going on during the off-season, so let's take a look at a few interesting happenings from last week.

The New York Yankees left fielder returned home to Tokyo on Nov. 22 with an American League Championship in his pocket but without a World Series ring on his finger or a Rookie of the Year trophy in his carry-on luggage. Overall, though,it was a pretty good year for the former Yomiuri Giants superstar.
