Great to see there's some interest in this. Will check out those two sites. All I managed to find on the *** site, position wise, were box scores from the Japan Series (the World Series equivalent) Which only had the players from Seibu Lions and Yomiuri Giants and then only those who actually got a game, so that is one area I was really struggling with. Those sites sound like they should help immensely with that.

Never having downloaded the Lahman database (am doing that now), I was curious as to the layout so that I could look into duplicating it for Japanese stats (Assuming I could find more than the two seasons at ***) So that now seems an option. I had initially been inputting manually names etc and manually changing the player ratings by using the 2002 stats as a guide to the players abilities. Presumably the Lahman format can contain as many years as you input and the game will read it all in? I am assuming you input it from the option in free agency and then allocate the players to the relevant teams?

Thanks all for the assistance. What a great community this place is.
