Dice-K vs. K. Saitoh
I am a fairly recent NBP fan.

Who do you think is a better pitcher, "Dice-K" or K. Saitoh (2-time Sawamura winner)?

Matsuzaka has been more consistent over the years (with a few injuries every now and then), while Saitoh has had a few absolutely phenomenal years and a few pretty bad ones. This is probably why Matsuzaka is more sought after, because after 8 years and many 130+ pitch outings, his arm hasn't fallen off and is still putting up good numbers. Saitoh seems to be a Jekyll and Hyde depending what year it is.

So, that didn't really answer that question. This year - Saitoh. Overall (career) - Matsuzaka.

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.
