Takatsu just couldn't throw strikes when needed, that's his problem.

That was Ishii's problem. Takatsu was much better last year, though. What has changed, or could he not throw strikes last year but was lucky? Getting adjusted?

Well Dustin Hermanson was also brought in as closer, and Takatsu's opportunites were less and less. Hermanson has been lights out as a closer, Takatsu really hasn't had a role with the White Sox and hasn't pitched much.
If he pitches good in AAA Norfolk, I think he will be fine.

The Mets' pen sure could use some help. If he can round into better form, he should get many opportunities to relieve with the Mets.

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
