Iwakuma, Uehara, Wada, Matsuzaka

Iwakuma, Uehara, Wada, Matsuzaka
Can someone tell me which one of these pitchers (Iwakuma, Uehara, Wada, and Matsuzaka) are most likey coming to MLB? I've seen Tsuoyoshi Wada in the Olympics, both agaisnt the Canada team (shut them out in the first outing) and did really well in the bronze game (like 6.0 innings, 7 K's, 1 run). I was impressed. The annoucer pointed out that Wada was going to give the MLB a shot in 2005 or 2006. Is that true? And Iwakuma can he be a top picther in MLB? Also, does Uehara throw heat? What does he hit on the radar gun? And as for Matsuzaka, I know all about him. His hook for his curve and slider is wicked. I saw him against the Australia team - 13k's in 7.0 innings. On Wednesday, May 25 he struck out 12 while only giving up 3 hits and one 1 run in the complete game. I think he's going to dominate in MLB.

Finally, who is the best out of Iwakuma, Uehara, and Wada? Please reply.

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.
