Imanaga, 30, excelled during eight seasons with the Yokohama Bay Stars, going 74-55 with a 2.96 ERA and striking out 1,183 in 1,129⅔ innings.
While his fastball averages only 92 mph, Imanaga generates a significant amount of carry on the pitch, leading to the gaudy strikeout numbers and general effectiveness not often seen in someone who stands 5-foot-10.
