With the offseason ongoing, the Saitama Seibu Lions held their annual Thanks Festa in an irregular location of their Seibuen Yuenichi amusement park. With that concluded and over with, it is time for salary negotiations.
This is where we find out who proved their worth and who gets a pay decrease/increase after reviewing their performance in the 2019 NPB season. Keep in mind, these are all salary estimates and reports from the media. No one truly knows what someone makes outside of the person who writes the checks and the player himself.
We will update this list as more reported salaries come in. This will be an ongoing piece to bookmark.
^ - Raise
|v| - Paycut
= - Same wages
* = Ikusei player
R = Coming off their first game or season at the ichi-gun.
Ichi-gun stats will be shown if possible. If a player didn't make it to the ichi-gun in 2019, his ni-gun stats will be shown instead.
For a position player, we will show batting average / OBP / SLG with other stats that may stand out.
