Matsui staying in Japan?
The Seattle Times is reporting that the word around the GM meetings is he wants to stay for another season and play in the Olympics. Any news in Japan on this?

Pure speculation. Haven't seen any statements from any source in Japan saying that.

The New York Post is reporting that Kaz has narrowed his choice to three teams. The Yankees, Dodgers, and Mariners. Citing the same "sources," the Post also reports that the chance of Kaz coming to the U.S. is 80 percent. [Link]

I wouldn't say it's pure speculation.
Matsui has stated that he feels it's 50/50 on whether he'll stay in Japan or go to the U.S. Also, Matsui has expressed a desire to play at Athens. I believe Hideki Matsui got permission to play in the Olympics written into his contract with the Yanks, but I could be wrong.
Basically, it's just one of many factors. Nothing has been definitely decided.

The NY Post is a Tabloid rag. And nothing they say can be taken seriously.
