A lot will be written about him in the coming weeks, but basically in 414.2 innings in his NPB career, he has a 2.02 ERA and has struck out 524 to just 91 walks.
The suspicion among many in the industry, almost everyone in the industry, that if this guy is posted, Roki Sasaki becomes available, the Los Angeles Dodgers will be heavy, heavy favorites to sign him.
The timing of Sasaki's posting - which has yet to be set - will determine whether he falls into the 2024 or 2025 international amateur class.
Though Sasaki would join an organization on a minor league deal, a team can add him to its major league roster before the 2025 season.
