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.

Also, does anyone know if he has dual citizenship? The media here in Japan has been slow to pick up on the Mike Nakamura story. I guess they figure he's Australian and doesn't count as a Japanese national, although if he was born in Nara to a Japanese father, that would qualify him as being Japanese to me.
