One year contracts are negotiated every autumn and winter after the Japan Series, right about now. Players are offered pay raises or cuts depending on the just concluded season's performance.
Players have no leverage (short of striking), so I'm not sure how they're even "negotiating" with the club. Occasionally a veteran demands a multi-year contract, or a club offers a multi-year deal to a player in his walk year.

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.

How are salaries determined for the upcoming season? Is there a maximum for players who do not have a lot of years of service?
