Japanese Publication Expects Brewers To Reach Agreement With Aoki
That link will take you to the Sponichi report, which is in Japanese.
I don't speak Japanese and odds are you don't either, so I got the gist of the article from this note at NPB Tracker.

In case anyone wants to watch Yoenis Cespedes play, here’s a live stream.
He’s playing alongside Carlos Gomez. Mike Rivera is on the team too but I don’t know if he’s starting.
If Plush had to pick Wearwolf or Vampire, I'm a Wearwolf!
Gomez is in CF and just nailed somebody trying to advance on a SF.

Cespedes just popped up to third on the first pitch, and his swing looked like Yuniesky Betancourt.

Gomez reached on a bunt single, forced an error stealing second and advanced to third, and scored on a SF caught by the 3B in foul territory.

If we trade Gomez...
Who’d be the righty for the CF platoon?
In all seriousness, I wonder what we could get for him.
Carlos Gomez freaking rules.

Brewers owner, Aoki impressed! To be agreed early next week
12 Brewers owner Mark Ignacio Ata (Japan time 13), were expected to mouth the Yakult’s Aoki exclusive negotiation period.
Attend the owners meeting in Arizona. Same owner visited the practice on the 8th, “The tryouts never. GM, coach, was an opportunity for any player or direct them to look,” he explained on the "professional experience has left a great offense and defense However, wanted in a serious attitude, "said a good impression with.
May 17 deadline is 5 pm EST (7:00 am the same 18). Negotiations about the situation “say anything” and that “in the near future (at a press join) I hope you 会Ere” etc. says, is proceeding smoothly as well. Also agreed early next week to be seen with certainty. Army job that day, 1.96 million a year and $ 2,500 for a candidate center fielder Gomez (approximately 751 million yen), agreed to re-contract. Aoki’s going to be a salary basis.
Even with that garbled response
I’m not sure I get “expects Brewers to reach an agreement” from it. I guess if you count, “agreeing not to sign” as an agreement that’s a given because the deadline is approaching.
KL, did you get someone to translate it more directly for you?
TH also tweeted something similiar
I get the feeling from talking to a good friend in the Japanese media that the expectation is that #Brewers will sign OF Norichika Aoki.
