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.

Many teams eliminate a lot of people in the first round. Some additional conditions for many teams just to get past the first round include running 50 meters in under 6.3 seconds and throwing at least 95 meters with control and consistancy.
