These two Google searches should help you with your first question:As for the second half, I don't really pay much attention to the players after they leave for the MLB. But rumor has it that Nomo did pretty well, as well as Ichiro and Hideki Matsui.

The Nichi-Bei forum has lots about those who did well and those who didn't. I think there are even a few summaries of Japanese players and where they were in North America at the time.

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.
