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.

A friend of mine in a telephone conversation said he went to a couple of Giants' games and saw no sign of him in the dug out. He asked another fan if the Giants had sent him home? To the minors? Or released him? No direct answer.
I looked him up on the MLB Player Association roster changes, and it still had him in NPB. So, where is he?
