Gearing up for the upcoming season, I thought I’d bring our readers’ attention to an excellent site. Japan Baseball News–a collaborative effort from long-time Japanese baseball guru Bob Bavasi and site author Brandon Siefken–is an effective and well-done site covering professional and amateur baseball in Japan.
The site features free content containing scouting reports, draft analysis and the like, a free research archive with pitch plot scouting reports, videos of players, and a litany of other tools, as well as paid content giving readers access to up-to-date stats from NPB.
The site’s author, Brandon Siefkin resides in Japan and “has covered Japanese pro and amateur baseball since 1991. He is currently an intern for a Major League Baseball team and has been quoted in Bloomberg, The New York Times and other publications regarding Japanese baseball”.
Get your swerve on, Japanese Baseball fans.
