Yankees Pull Kei Igawa Off Waivers

The Padres and Kevin Towers will have to continue to search for another starting pitcher within their organization as the Kei Igawa talks have broken off between the Pads and Yanks. With the amount of interest that the Frairs have shown for Igawa ($10 million + negotiating fee to Japanese club, trade talks before and after July 31 deadline) I would not be surprised to hear his name come up in the off season. It will be interesting to see if any additional names start to float around Petco Park.
