Hanshin Tigers
I will start off with the Tigers. They are probably the 2nd most popular team behind the Yomiuri Giants.
Default Line-up (Name - Uniform - Position):
1. Murton - #9 - CF
2. Hirano - #5 - 2B
3. Toritani - #1 - SS
4. Kanemoto - #6 - LF
5. Arai - #25 - 3B
6. Johjima - #2 - C
7. Brazell - #67 - 1B
8. Sakurai - #51 - RF
9. Pitcher
MLB fans are most likely familiar with Murton and Johjima.
Murton is hitting great in Japan, .385 and 4 homeruns at the moment, so I am betting he will get a stat boost when Konami gives PS3 users a roster update (in middle season i guess) as he is kinda weak in the game right now.
Johjima has the "Power hitter" skill in the game meaning if you place a power swing perfectly you will most likely go yard. He also has the "Pull" hitter skill meaning he is an extreme pull hitter.
Kanemoto has the Iron Man skill meaning he will most likely never be injured in Pennat since he has a world record iron man streak going (even longer than Cal Ripken). He also has the "Line Drive" special skill meaning his hits will always be lower arching, line-drive type homerun, etc.
First baseman Brazell has very high power rating. He is one of the few hitters in the game with the 7 arc, meaning he will hit balls very very high producing lots of HIGH flyouts, pop ups, and homeruns.
Bench players to watch:
- Sekimoto (#3, 2B) - you can use him as your 2B in a platoon when you face a left handed pitcher
- Katsuragi (#33, OF/1B) - he is often used in late game situations as a defensive 1B in real life
Pitching Staff:
This team doesn't really have a good starting staff. No one can be considered an ace but obviously if you look at the attributes, Nohmi (#14) is your best starter.
The superstar of the pitching staff is Closer - Fujikawa (#22). His fastball is the best in the entire game and he has a unique special skills called "the Fire Ball". Let's just say this makes his fastball really powerful and unhittable.
That's all for now, may come back and add more later.

I beg to differ (no offense) but the Tigers have a solid set of SP's .....Maybe they lack a Darvsh, Wakui, Iwakuma or Tanaka...But all around they have a solid and durable rotation worthy of notice......and while Nohmi might be the most popular....I this Iwata is the ace (imho)
