Update: Hisanori Takahashi


Mets general manager Omar Minaya told David Waldstein of the New York Times that the team would like to re-sign Hisanori Takahashi. We’ve been very happy with him," said Minaya. "He’s done everything we’ve asked of him, and he’s shown the ability to pitch in New York. I’m sure we’ll sit down after the season and, hopefully, we can work something out."

Takahashi has been one of the lone bright spots on the club this year. He has shown that he can pitch out of relief or as a starter. I would not be opposed to bringing him back as a reliever, but I would much rather spend the $2-3Million it would take to wrap him up on a more pressing need for the ball club. If Omar Minaya makes re-signing Takahashi a priority, we should all expect to be in for another long season in 2011.
