By Tim Dierkes [July 21, 2008 at 1:17pm CST]

East Windup Chronicle points us to a list of some of the more interesting Japanese players who will be free agents after this season.  Most of these guys are around 32-33 years old.  Here's who we've got:

  • Koji Uehara, SP/RP - NPB Tracker profiles him here.
  • Tomohiro Nioka, SS - We wrote a little bit about Nioka in October of '07.
  • Kenshin Kawakami, SP - East Windup Chronicle profiled him for us last year.
  • Hitoki Iwase, RP - That same post also covered Iwase.
  • Masahiro Araki, 2B - Hit .263/.296/.302 in '07 - not much with the bat.
  • Hirokazu Ibata, SS - Hit .296/.368/.393 in '07.
