Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports that the A's are considering signing Hideki Okajima.
Okajima pitched brilliantly last season for Japan's Fukuoka Softbank Hawks, posting a 0.94 ERA across 47 2/3 innings. The 37-year-old left-hander owns a solid 3.11 career ERA and 1.25 career WHIP in the major leagues. He can probably be had on a one-year contract.
