Seibu Lions release two developmental foreign players

The Seibu Lions have announced that they will not renew the contracts of developmental players Chazze Fred and Carlos Tober for the upcoming season.

Fred, a pitcher from Uganda, and Tober, an infielder from Slovenia, both joined the team following successful stints in independent leagues. Despite their previous performances, neither player appeared in a farm team game during the current season. As a result, both players will depart the club without achieving a formal roster registration in the NPB.
