Gōki Oda

I'll be honest, Gōki Oda wasn't a name I knew off the top of my head, but the moment I clocked he's a 2000-born kid out of Akashi in Hyogo, something clicked for me. Akashi's a seaside town, the home of akashiyaki rather than takoyaki, and there's something I find genuinely endearing about a young guy chasing a baseball there and now grinding away in the pro game. He doesn't come with a stack of flashy headlines or legend-status stories yet, and that's exactly why I'm rooting for him, the grounded, early-career types are usually the ones who quietly sneak up on you. I don't have his numbers in front of me, so I won't pretend, but I'm quietly keeping an eye on this one.
