To the Orix Buffaloes
A note to the Orix Buffaloes. Please take Jeremy Powell's picture off your website roster. He is not your player and any court will tell you that. Like usual you are acting like horses' you know whats and looking like fools. Anther case of feet dragging and players leaving. Until you take a good look at yourselves and make changes you will keep being seen as an incompetent front office.

Katsuhiro Nakamura must go! Everything associated with this man says loser. He was a loser as a Hanshin manager (in 6 years finished last 3 times, 4th 2 times and 2nd once), and as an Orix manager (finished 5th 29 games under). As a GM and special adviser he angered pitcher Iwakuma, outfielder Isobe, third baseman Nakamaura, and now pitcher Powell into leaving. It's always the person with a problem who is last to see it. I can assure you Orix, we all see it.

Well said, Grant.

Unless Terry Collins can get big seasons out of the aging foreign players who will definitely be playing for him this year, it is going to be a long season for Orix fans.
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.
