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.

I'm a Brazilian baseball fan who wants to know about Brazilian ballplayers in Japan Leagues. Recently I heard a young Brazilian, Anderson Gomes de Oliveira, sign a contract with Daiei Hawks. Is it true? Can you link me to a English webpage, news or any information about this guy?
Brazilians are very proud about his performance, he's only 17 years old RHP who throws a 94mph fastball.
Thanks very much,
Andr
