Tigers sign new players
Tigers announced on Friday that they had signed the Korean pitcher Seung Hwan Oh from the Korean baseball team Samsung Lions. He has been given a two year contract and is an interesting signing. He is likely to get Kyuji Fujikawa's old number 22. The other signing announced was Mauro Gomez as Tigers foreign power hitter. This is more problematic as Tigers have an appalling record with foreign players. Doubts have been raised about Gomez's defense but of more concern is whether he will be able to hit. The talk indicates he may well be given No. 44 - Randy Bass' old number. Gomez is slated for first which leaves question marks over Takahiro Arai.

About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
