That data was contributed from someone who was interested primarilly in the Hawaiian Winter League, and gathered a little more data from that interest. I'm afraid that I don't track data for players outside of Japan.
There is a site that does, though: JapaneseBallPlayers.com [click the "English" link in the upper-right hand corner]. It started off with just Japanese players, but now includes a great many Asian players as well. The site focuses on Asians in MLB, but I think it covers those in the minors as well. There are some related links from there that may be of interest to you as well.

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.

I was wondering if you have a link on the year by year history of Japanese players in overseas' leagues, similar to the "study abroad" section you have on your site? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
