(HS Baseball Japan) Hideki Kuriyama, ancien manager des Samurai Japan qui travaille avec les Hokkaido Fighters, a laissé entendre la possibilité de choisir Reo Shibata (joueur bidirectionnel du Fukuoka HS) au 1er tour du repêchage de la NPB. Kuriyama a également joué un rôle essentiel dans le développement de Shohei Ohtani au début de sa carrière en tant que joueur à double sens au Japon.

Some things that I need to add in this comment section because it already exceeded the character limitations for the post title.
* Hideki Kuriyama works as CBO with the Fighters, and was also the former Fighters manager of Shohei Ohtani when he still played with them
* Reo Shibata’s HS is named Fukuoka Dai Hori
* The NPB Draft will be held this month of October.
That is 1 hell of a headline.
So how does HS vs College work in Japan? Is there often players who decline being drafted to go to college
