Mets Close to Deal with Iriki?
New York city papers say that the Mets are close to a deal to sign Iriki [New York Post]. He does not seem to have been an excellent pitcher in Japan, only good. What do fans and analysts there think of him?

The Mets have indeed signed Iriki. MLB.com has the story up now. Iriki has been signed to a one year major league contract.

I think the second post by Jim Albright in this thread sums it up pretty well.

About
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.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
