He has been with the Cardinals for two years and last year he pitched 60 games, the highest of his career, had 5 wins and 1 loss and an ERA of 3.98. He pitched 61 innings and had 60 strikeouts. Although he specializes in backup, manager Tsuyoshi Shinjo appears to be considering using him as a starter, saying, “Of course I want him to be in the rotation and play an active role.”
Nippon-Ham, which is in last place for the second year in a row, now has eight foreign players this season, including Verhagen. In addition to Verhagen, the pitchers include Patrick Murphy, Annulas Zabala and developing Sun Yilei, and Brian Rodriguez is entering his seventh year in Japan. Attention will be paid to what type of pitching Verhagen, who has a proven track record, will exhibit.
