Another day, another free agent to cross off the list for your Los Angeles Dodgers. MLB insider Ken Rosenthal confirmed that Japanese pitcher and highly touted free agent Kodai Senga will take his talents to New York and become a Met.
Source confirms: Japanese free-agent right-hander Kodai Senga in agreement with Mets on five-year, $75M contract, pending physical. Deal includes no-trade and opt-out clauses. First with agreement: @martinonyc.
Senga, 30, will sign a five-year $75 million contract with the Metropolitans, and that seems like a deal the Dodgers could’ve made.
A rotation of Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Jose Quintana, and Carlos Carrasco are projected to be the five guys in their rotation at the start of the 2023 season.
