TAIWANESE LEAGUE HOLDS DISPERSAL DRAFT

The Chinese Professional Baseball League recently held an allocation draft of players from the disbanded Chinatrust Whales and dMedia T-Rex franchises among the Taiwanese league’s four remaining teams. Picking first, the Sinon Bulls took former dMedia slugger Hsieh Chia-Hsien, who was second in the league with 17 homers last year.
The Brother Elephants snapped up ex-Chinatrust ace Ni Fu-Te, who led the circuit with 132 strikeouts in 2008. The La New Bears took Chan Chih-Yao with the third pick, while the President Lions selected Chu Wei-Ming at number four.
In all, 18 CPBL veterans were selected in the draft.
