MLB is a financial juggernaut. And that makes it a global destination for talent. For players as talented as Seiya Suzuki, perhaps even more so. And showing remarkable resolve, the player does not appear to be backing down from his move to America amid the League-imposed lockout threatening to give us a shortened season.

Suzuki is one of the most talented youngsters from across the Pacific and making his way here, MLB is bound to see a new talent emerge.

Suzuki has been linked with a move to Major League Baseball. And while a team is yet to set itself as a clear frontrunner, it appears as though the contenders for the move will likely emerge from between the Boston Red Sox and the San Francisco Giants. But the fear in Suzuki’s mind could be whether or not he gets sufficient playing time considering the lockout. Reportedly, though, his vision remains.

Seiya Suzuki set to make his way to MLB shores

Seiya Suzuki is one of the foremost talents spoken about from Japan and his induction into MLB only stands as an impressive addition to the talent pool of the league. However, it would be fair to say that Suzuki’s hesitance to join the League this year could be understood.

With the operation of the lockout, a shortened season would likely not yield the talent enough time to bed himself into the squad and to grow into the American League, as he had originally intended. He, however, looks set to arrive. His agent said as much.

Said Suzuki’s agent, “Seiya is 100% committed to playing in MLB this year. He’s shown remarkable patience and resolve.”

The lockout seems to have had no effect on Suzuki’s intention; especially not on moving to America. Although how long this resolve will remain, no one can say. The League has already seen every teams’ first two series canceled because of the lockout, and with no end in sight, it seems a bit morbid.
