Kona Takahashi Set to Return to Japan With the Saitama Seibu Lions

Takahashi had Major League offers from three teams, but he opted to return to Seibu. The new multi-year deal will include opt outs that give him an option to test the MLB free agency as soon as next year without being subjected to the posting system. Takahashi's Lions teammate, Tatsuya Imai, signed a three-year deal with the Astros.
