Is their trading between the NPB and the MLB
Hi is it possible to trade from one team to the next. In other words from an NPB team to an MLB team and viceversa. Can you give me some examples. Thanks.

Nope. That was done away with after Irabu refused to be "traded" (that is, have his negotiation rights traded) to San Diego back after the end of the 1996 season. That prompted the current posting system, of which you can find a great deal written elsewhere on this site.
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.
