The list includes two-way phenom and WBSC Premier12 hero Shohei Ohtani (pictured, left), Premier12 2019 MVP Seiya Suzuki as well as hard-throwing right-hander and WBSC U-18 Baseball World Cup alum Roki Sasaki.

The slugging outfielder announced his decision through his Twitter profile.

The Boston Red Sox gave Yoshida the second biggest free agent deal for a Japanese Player.

The two-way phenom became just the second player after Hall of Famer David Ortiz to earn the award two consecutive times.

He led the league in five offensive categories and won a near-unanimous vote. His father, Jong-beom Lee, was the 1994 MVP.

The Japanese phenom's last international appearance was the inaugural WBSC Premier12 and said he's looking forward to playing "in front of the Japanese fans for the first time in over 5 years!!"

After defeating NPB's Nippon Ham Fighters and Yomiuri Giants, the World No. 1 National Team completed the Fall tests with two more wins.

The Philadelphia Phillies and Houston Astros feature Olympic medalists such as David Robertson (silver at Tokyo 2020 - pictured above) and Yuli Gurriel (gold at Athens 2004, silver at Bejing 2008) as well as Alec Bohm who played for the US at the WBSC Premier12 2019.

The 23-year-old right-hander used 102 pitches to complete his gem. "I had this amazing concentration all the way to the ninth inning, but I was pumped up as I pitched, so I'm just overjoyed,"

The 28-year-old left-hander used 117 pitches to lead the Yokohama DeNA Baystars to a 2-0 win against the Nippon Ham Fighters in Sapporo.
