Midre Cummings in Japan?

Midre Cummings in Japan?
Is Midre Cummings, formerly with Baltimores AAA Ottawa, playing in Japan? He is a close friend of my wife's family as he grew up playing ball on St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands.

Who is he with, etc., etc. What team?

To my best knowledge Cummings isn't in Japan.

Any idea where he is? Retired? AAA?

Hello.

Would you know or could find out if Midre Cummings is in Japan playing ball now? (A few scouts here with Dodgers in training told us that's where he went this season.) He played many years in NL/AL with the Red sox, Pittsburg, Arizona, etc.; mostly up and down thru AAA to Durham.

Thank you.

As of April 25, there is no such player registered in NPB (Nippon Professional Baseball). I checked the official NPB registry for players who's names begin with the カ (ka) sound, as well as コ (ko), and all of the Ms.

He is not listed on any USA Minor, Korea, or Taiwan League team rosters at this time.

The USA Indy Leagues have not released their rosters yet.

The Atlantic League starts Friday, that would be my guess as that is a AAA Free Agent League, if he is still an active player.

He is doing well, now living in Tarpon Springs, Florida, and is not currently playing baseball.

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.
