Yeah, I've never understood the first/second half format either myself. This should help to make the CPBL more competitive throughout the whole season, as teams just can't get lazy and still breeze into the playoffs. Now just if CPBL would fix some of the gambling problems plaguing it.

It hasn't been confirmed just yet. It's the CPBL. I remember last season when the Cobras changed their name to the Dragons - they had jerseys all done up yet reverted back to the Cobras moniker.
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.

Instead there will be a fight to the very end of the 100 game schedule as the top three teams will qualify for the playoffs.
Having the first half champions qualify for the post season provided them with no incentive for the second half, and it hurt the quality of play.
