The Chiba Lotte Marines have announced the posting of Roki Sasaki this winter, creating a significant opportunity and risk for MLB and NPB teams alike.
By posting Sasaki now, the Chiba Lotte Marines take a risk not only on potential financial losses but also disrupt the competitive balance within NPB.
With Sasaki being classified as an international amateur due to his age, he is at a disadvantage regarding signing bonuses and salary compared to older players.
Sasaki's early posting raises questions about financial strategy and the long-term impacts on international player transfers in MLB.
