Chris Resop Japan Stats
Today is the Braves’ deadline to trade or promote former Hanshin Tiger Chris Resop. Resop’s stint in Japan was not a successful one, and to show how much he’s improved his results, I’ve compiled his Japan stats here. Apologies for the formatting, which is worse than Resop’s 2008 numbers. Note that because Resop spent the entirity of 2009 with Hanshin’s farm team, detailed numbers were not readily available and I didn’t go out of my way to find them.
Chris has earned another shot at MLB with a dynamite first half in 3A, and I wish him the best of luck with his impending promotion.

Thanks CJ, I didn’t even think of that. I just put this up because people keep searching for “Chris Resop Japan stats” and winding up on this site.
It’s cool to have you as a reader, btw.
