Winter League Roundup
Discussion in the Nichi-Bei 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.

What I find interesting, is that the Dragons have 3 pitchers in the Dominican Winter League, they had two last year. It's a nice way to help players get extra off-season work.
