- I'm wondering if the J-League is killing baseball, or at least the Lions.
The J-League is definetly not killing baseball, the old-group owners, though, most certainly are. Also the way the corporations run the teams are another reason this happens, in my opinion.
Also, I wonder how much the recent Seibu scandal is hurting the team's marketing campaigns. There was talk of selling the Lions late last year. Seibu also sold the naming rights of their stadium and minor league team to Invoice.

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.

Saitama is definetely a football prefecture. Urawa Reds tickets are the hardest ticket to buy in Japan (so I'm told). I'm wondering if the J-League is killing baseball, or at least the Lions.
