Mets introduce Japanese right-hander Kodai Senga
NEW YORK -- Kodai Senga hardly hesitated when asked who he is most looking forward to facing when he pitches for the New York Mets.
"The Phillies' lineup," the Japanese right-hander said in English.
The Mets are excited for that showdown with the reigning National League champions, too.
Senga was officially introduced at a press conference Monday at Citi Field after finalizing a $75 million, five-year contract with the Mets, who will introduce Justin Verlander on Tuesday morning.
