To get names and stats, go to the Players by Nationality page and choose the American country you're interested in. (The South American country of Venezuela produces a lot of great ball players.) If you want a particular year, add "?Year=2006" (without the quotes) to the end of the URL to get just the 2006 players.

Note: 2007 has not yet been entered, so please don't ask why you can't see a particular player who you think is in Japan this year.

Rosters are sorted by team, not nationality. So click on the Teams link above and go through the teams.
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.
