Lotte Acquires Expo/Nationals Outfielder Pascucci
The Chiba Lotte Marines have acquired another outfielder, who last played with the Montreal Expos, Valentino Pascucci. Here are his stats according to ESPN. That now gives the Marines five foreigners, four fielders and one pitcher.

Here's the article from Nikkan Sports [in Japanese].

Good acquisition.

Pascucci has considerable power and is patient (perhaps overly so) at the plate. Defensively, he's adequate in left and right (avgerage speed, but poor routes, strong arm) and average at first.

He should have received a better/earlier shot at a career in MLB.
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.
