Bulls Sign P Jose Espinal and Resign P Tomokazu Iba
The Sinon Bulls have signed P Jose Espinal. The 32 year old right hander was 3-2 with a 4.44 ERA in 5 games in 2007 for the Long Island Ducks of the independent Atlantic League. Espinal pitched in the CPBL in 2005 with the President Lions, going 3-3 with a 3.09 ERA in 8 games.

The Bulls resigned P Tomokazu Iba (9-9, 1 save, 2.67 ERA in 24 games last season). The club also signed another Japanese pitcher - Fumio Katayama. However, he's actually from Brazil. The 24 year old righty was last registered with the Yakult Swallows from 2003-2005.
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.
