Yusei Kikuchi is enthusiastic about his sixth year in the Major Leagues “I want to enjoy baseball”. Pitcher Kikuchi, 32, won 11 games last season, his first double-digit win in the major leagues.
This season is the final year of his three-year contract with the Blue Jays, and he participated in the Battery camp that began on the 15th in Dunedin, Florida. The reason for this was that his performance had declined due to fatigue towards the end of last year's season.
