The 9 year contract makes the whole salary negotiation bit seem strange, or is that just me? I guess the club can raise players' salaries upon demand if they feel that a disgruntled player would be significantly less productive.
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.

Fujikawa went 7-1 with 1 save and a 1.36 ERA last year. He finished 2nd in the Central League MVP balloting behind teammate Tomoaki Kanemoto. He was also called the Tigers' MVP by manager Akinobu Okada numerous times this year. Fuijkawa makes up part of the fearsome J-F-K trio of relievers.
