If the Mets need a big strikeout out of the bullpen, Hisanori Takahashi may just be the guy.
Despite giving up at least one run in his past three appearances, the Mets call on Takahashi to eat up some innings out of the pen.
He leads all MLB relievers in strikeouts with 21. That's 21 strikeouts in just 14.1 innings pitched. His last two appearances have especially added to his total.
Last Friday against the Atlanta Braves, Takahashi pitched three innings in relief.
Despite giving up a run, he struck out seven batters.
Yesterday against the Dodgers, he gave up one run in 3.1 innings of work while striking out five batters.
