I really feel bad for Igawa. The Yankees seem to have no intention of bringing him up, so I don't see why they haven't tried to at least trade him over the years. I think he might do OK as a back of the rotation guy on a small-market team with less pressure to win.

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.
