I'll be releasing a 2008 NPB league file in a few days (something my new league wants to incorporate) -- it will have all the players in the league this year (with accurate salary info and uniforms), as well as their minor league rosters, with ratings based on stats up through Sunday. Not having stats for the minor leaguers, those won't be accurate ratings AT ALL, but at least the names will be in there.

I'm using real stats to generate these players, but adjusting the stats using NPB-MLB MLEs, then re-importing the real stats (for accuracy in records). That way you'll be able to use these rosters in conjunction with MLB without the Japanese players being *too* good. The Japanese Hall of Fame will be included, as well as past award winners, Japan Series winners and All-Stars.

When released, I'd like you guys to take a look at it and tell me what you think -- suggestions for improvement are not just welcome, I'm practically begging for them.
