Dr Beinfest Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 I think by Japanese you refer to a common stereotype that all Asian players are Japanese, which, they are not. Asian yes, Japanese, definately not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbethan Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 As far as I can tell, we don't have any in our system either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30plus Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 We've only had two I believe all time, Hee Seop Choi, and B.K. Kim. Brings back memories of the Choi days and that in-the-park homerun he hit at dolphin stadium. I remember he hit 9 homers for us in April of 04 and then hit like 3 over the next two months...

I seem to recall Choi being sat against every leftie and most righties after the 3rd week or so. His solid rate of drawing walks was ignored by the old man.

Nny Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Which really is too bad. I can understand not wanting to get any of the posted JP players, but there's good FA options out there. you're not going to find too many good position player FAs, but there's been a lot of solid pitching guys who came over as cheap FAs.

rferry Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Very few Japanese free agents have gone to teams outside of the west coast or large markets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee Ball Bunt Machine Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 It's probably the issue of the posting fee. Plus, how many will want to go through everything to come here and play in Pittsburgh? That said, Iwamura is an exception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
