The NPB Draft Meeting has ended on 23 October, and all results of each team 's picks have been released. So many surprises and upsets that I've felt in this Draft meeting, but from now on it's our part to watch over their journey. First pick, lower pick, or even developmental pick, no one knows what they will face in the next step of their life's stage in the future. And so, whatever happens after the day of their fates, the rest is history.
To make it clear for the baseball fans out there who aren't familiar enough with the amateur names, here is the translated list of all prospects drafted by different teams from NPB! If possible, I will write down the profile details in different posts and link them to each different name in this list.
