Furuta's Pay Cut
In an interesting move the Swallows' Atsuya Furuta accepted a 75% paycut. He will now be paid 60 million (6,000-man) yen. This is a record reduction for a Japanese baseball player.

Yes, he also has a 100 million (1-oku) yen salary as a manager (this one did not change as it is a 2 year contract).

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.
