Lin was raised in Taiwan. He then was scouted by Yanagigawa High School (I believe) to play on their baseball team. Lin then went to college and entered the draft of the 2003 season. Because he was a student for 7 years, he was not considered as a foreign player, due to the rule that states "a player who is not originally Japanese but studied in Japan for 4 years or more will not be considered as a foreign player, and must be signed through the drafting system."
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.
