Discussion in the CPBL News forum
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.

Former Orix Buffaloes right hander Leicester (33) was 5-9 with a 6.50 ERA in 27 games last season for the Tucson Padres (AAA Pacific Coast League).
Also in the mix is 37 year old returnee Ryan Glynn. The righty was 6-1 with a 1.47 ERA in 11 games for the Leos last year but his age could work against him. The team's looking for foreign players "who won't get hurt as last year's crop of foreign players did."
