Jim Allen (currently writes for the Daily Yomiuri) wrote a Guide to Japanese Baseball from 1994 to 1997 which was full of such Sabermetric analysis. I've tried to convince him a number of times to write another one. I'll try again.

While I do not do an annual Sabermetric evaluation of Japanese baseball as Mr. Allen did (it was quite good, I might add), I have looked at the broader history of Japanese ball from that perspective. You can see my work here [Baseball Guru].

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 have gone through some tachiyomi sessions with the books published by Data Stadium, Inc., which are the closest thing I have found, but somehow they didn't appeal to me.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or advice.
