"After playing in just seven games with the White Sox last year, Dalbec signed a one-year deal with the Tokyo Yomiuri Giants, one of the most successful and famous clubs in the sport."
"Nippon Professional Baseball is going through something of a deadball period right now. But, still, I wouldn't be shocked to see him put up some big home run numbers on the other side of the Pacific."
"It helps that he's always seemed like the type of thoughtful and intelligent player who would enjoy a stint overseas as opposed to viewing it as a career-ender."
Bobby Dalbec, a former Red Sox first baseman, is no longer in Major League Baseball after appearing in seven games with the White Sox last year. He signed a one-year contract with the Tokyo Yomiuri Giants, one of Nippon Professional Baseball's most successful and famous clubs. Nippon Professional Baseball is currently experiencing a deadball period that has suppressed power numbers. Dalbec nevertheless could still post substantial home run totals playing in Japan. He has a reputation as a thoughtful and intelligent player who might embrace an overseas stint rather than view it as a career ender. Fans are encouraged to wish him well.
