On Wednesday, Kenny Williams met with free agent Hideki Matsui<\/a><\/strong>, who appears to be one of several left-handed hitters on his radar\u2026..it is rumored that Williams now may be seeking two left-handed bats\u2026..if Quentin is moved then Matsui could be a nice fit at DH. [Jon Heyman<\/a>]<\/p>\n
