After a short time in the development squad Kenichi Tagami has received his full squad number. He'll wear No. 61 and stated that he wants to emulate Akahoshi. His salary will be 5 million yen to start and he received a 10 million yen signing bonus. Of the three players picked from the development squad he's been the fastest to move up (the others are Nohara and Baldris). Mayumi's emphasis on developing young players does seem to be having an effect.
