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.

Rakuten is hosting Softbank at 1:00pm [World Clock] on Sky A, and
Yokohama is hosting Chunichi at 6:00pm on J-Sports 2
This should work out well for listeners on both North American coasts to catch part of one game or the other live.
I would also like to let you know that I'll be a guest on MHStevie's radio show on Sunday morning (local New York time), around 9:00pm JST. As those of you who joined in the Pro Yakyu Game of the Week chats last year know, MHStevie hosts the "Radio 1/2 Show" on Skidmore College's campus radio station WSPN. When on the air, you can find the stream on Shoutcast here. MHStevie-san plays Japanese pops and anime music, and started giving Pro Yakyu updates with the Game of the Week last year. So we'll talk a little baseball on the show, and try out the idea I had to use Skype as an Internet Radio "call in" service. If all goes well, I hope to post the interview in the audio archives here as well.
