The Hiroshima Toyo Carp of Nippon Baseball announced they will post outfielder Seiya Suzuki.

The 27-year-old, Japan’s 2019 Home Run Derby champion, has spent nine seasons with the Central League’s Hiroshima Toyo Carp. He hit .319 with 38 homers and 88 RBIs this season and has a .315 career average with 182 homers and 562 RBIs.

He owns a career .402 OBP and a .542 slugging percentage. As a point of comparison, Hideki Matsui hit .304/.413/.582 in Japan, and came to MLB two years older in seasonal age. I suspect his posting will bring a good price.
