Mets Remain Involved With Kodai Senga
2 years agoThe New York Mets remain involved with Japanese starting pitcher Kodai Senga, even after signing left-handed starter Jose Quintana on Wednesday. The Mets lost Jacob deGrom, Taijuan Walker and Chris Bassitt from their starting rotation last season, but they've already added American League Cy Young winner Justin Verlander and Quintana this offseason. Senga exercised an opt-out clause in his contract with the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks to become an international free agent this winter. The 29-year-old right-hander has been one of Nippon Professional Baseball's best pitchers in the last 11 years and possesses a 100-mph fastball and a wipeout splitter. He could look real nice as the Mets' No. 4 starter in 2023 behind Max Scherzer, Verlander and Quintana.
