Boring !
Hawks have become the new Giants, in that they have too much money & power, & buy all the other teams best players

Its crazy that a guy who hit .143 and didn’t get an RBI was the MVP.

Before, the Yomiuri Giants spent most money for their team among Japanese ball teams. Today, it is the Softbank Hawks. They won the championship with money which they earned in their business excessively profitting from Japanese consumers. If they have extra money to spend for their baseball team, lower the mobile communication fees.

The Hawks dominance has come a bit boring, but I do love seeing a team win a championship in the stadium of the team they are playing.

But...isn’t it a good thing for a team other than the Giants to be succeeding? If spending money on free agents is what it takes for a team to win, then why criticize the Hawks for doing so with the argument that only the Giants are allowed to do so?

Today, I am not interested in Japan pro ball. We can watch Major League Baseball on Japanese TV. Japanese ball teams look minor league clubs in comparison. Japanese top pitchers go to U.S. and many injure their arms and shoulders. I guess it is because they have to exert a lot more than when they were here to play in higher levels.

Talk wait to talk to the dude I know who loves to take credit and feels like he's a member of the Hiroshima Carps.
