Well, asking on the official Hawaii Winter Baseball site might get you a more definitive answer than what I can give you here.
For an overview, though, my understanding of how the HWB recruits players is that they talk with the various leagues including Japan, Korea, Taiwan, as well as AA and AAA teams in North America. The teams participating decide who to send over, and they pay the HWB a fee to cover room and transportation expenses, while the players are in charge of paying for food, souvenirs, and other recreational activities.
So anyone interested in participating in the HWB will most likely need to discuss this with his team, and find out if the team and/or league has a working agreement with HWB.
If you find out any further information, please report back for others.

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.
