The Fall or Orix?
Since winning the championship in the mid 1990s, how did Orix become so bad? They are horrible!

They lost an ace in the soft throwing Hoshino. They also lost So Taguchi and Ichiro. It's easy to drop a decent amount of games per year after those losses.

Yes, they help, but Orix also has been guilty of making terrible decisions by the front office to replace those names. Orix's front office is a joke.
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.
