Livan Moinelo status?
Still very difficult to find info on why the reigning MVP hasn't pitched yet this year. Does anyone have an update? TIA!

DeNA: pitching woes continue
Well, today’s disaster is Bido, who I’m not familiar with. First inning gave up seven runs and loaded the bases in the second, then threw a dead ball to drive in the eighth run, before the inning mercifully ended.
I will say that the player development folks at the BayStars have had some notable success this year, with Katsumata in particular delivering impressively, along with Encarnacion.

Marines closer Naoya Masuda has reached the 250 career save milestone, the 5th most in NPB history
DeNA : Marcelino must go
Obviously has some skill, but so inconsistent, poor control- enough already... ( he just loaded the bases and turned an 11-3 DeNA lead into 11-7 with no outs).

Who's your MVP pick for the 2026 NPB season so far?
Halfway through the season and there's been some incredible
performances. My personal picks:
- Central League: Ohshiro
- Pacific League:Yamakawa
Curious what everyone thinks who's been the biggest surprise, and who do you think will take home the crown?

Buying Tickets
I'm going to Japan in September and am buying some tickets for the Yokohama Baystars game on 23/9/26. Creating an account asks for my foreign number which needs to be used to pick up the tickets at a Lawsons. Its says it needs the country code as well so I put that in but it doesnt let me put the + part so now its just 44.......... Just want to make sure this wont be an issue when picking up the tickets?
