Japanese ace Roki Sasaki is set to be one of the most coveted pitchers in MLB after being posted by the Chiba Lotte Marines this offseason. At just 23, he boasts impressive stats with a 2.35 ERA and 129 strikeouts across 111 innings this year. The posting process will allow MLB teams to negotiate a contract with him, and because he is under 25, his first contract will be a minor league deal.
Since joining the team, I have communicated my aspirations about pursuing an MLB opportunity, and I am sincerely thankful to the Marines for supporting my decision to post. Throughout my journey in five years with the Marines, I faced challenges but remained focused on my baseball development, thanks to my teammates, coaching staff, and fan support. My aim is to work hard from a minor league contract and emerge as a top player globally, ensuring I have no regrets.
