2004-5 Free Agents

Discussion in the Rumor Mill forum
2004-5 Free Agents
Does anybody know which players will be free agents after the current season? And, which are candidates to jump to North America?

Also, with talk of teams merging, what impact might that have on retaining top talent in Japan?

The stock answer here is that we wait until the season is over to figure such things out. Players could sign deals during the season, get hurt, and so forth, which would effect the answer. And then this year, the merger issue may dramatically increase the pool of free agents - but until the situation plays out. It is almost impossible to know at this time.

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.
