International Free Agent Class Announced

The Doubleday Baseball League is proud to continue one of its longstanding traditions by welcoming another class of international talent to the league for the upcoming season.

As part of this year's foreign import program, the league has elected to bring two accomplished players from overseas into the DBL free agent pool: Cuban slugger Orestes Kindelán and Japanese pitcher Fumiya Nishiguchi.

Nishiguchi, a 25-year-old right-handed starting pitcher from Japan, brings a polished four-pitch arsenal to the league featuring a fastball, slider, curveball, and forkball. Known for his command and ability to keep hitters off balance, he is expected to draw significant interest from clubs seeking rotation help.

Joining him is Kindelán, a 33-year-old power-hitting first baseman from Cuba whose legendary bat has made him one of the most feared sluggers outside of Major League Baseball. While primarily a first baseman, Kindelán also offers defensive versatility with the ability to play left field when needed.

Both players will be immediately available to all clubs as part of the upcoming free agency period, giving teams an opportunity to add proven international talent to their organizations.

Additional details regarding the free agency schedule and signing period will be announced by the league office in the coming days.
