Japan Olympic Team
In these days the Japan Olympic team will battle Korea and Taiwan for a berth in next year Olympics. Does anybody know where I can find rosters of Korea and Taiwan? I was wondering if they will have major and minor leaguers (Chan Ho Park, Hee Seop Choi., etc.) on their teams.

As some other threads have mentioned, asia-baseball.org has the rosters of all the teams involved. Korea's roster is here, and Taiwan's is here [both in English].
The Taiwanese team has Wang Chien-Ming from the Yankees' organization and Chen Chin-Feng from the Dodgers, along with Hsu Ming-Chieh and Chang Chih-Chia from Seibu. None of the other teams appear to have anyone from MLB or NPB (although China (mainland) is coached by former Mariners' and Cubs' manager Jim Lefebvre and former Red Sox pitcher Bruce Hurst).

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.
