How quickly they forget..... Carlos Silva on 8/3/04 CGSO giving up 11 hits, but getting 6 DP's, in a 99 pitch effort; glove in the air and ball thrown into the upper deck along the 1st base line as game completed. And yet, here we are...

Would this trade have been made if Maeda was making $6M (still cheap) a year, instead of 3?

Thing to keep in mind with the whole 'air resistance' of the ball going back up, is pitchers will also see an uptick in their ball movement as the higher resistance interacts with the air on the way to the plate. So it won't be just the hitting for distance that will decrease, but also the ability to get good, squared up contact with the ball will also be harder to achieve.

Granted, he gets no say in the matter but that style of usage would really cut into his earning capabilities; contract is really structured on his getting healthy and making starts moreso than just spot pitching and picking up stray innings. If he's a hot temper sort of guy, he would probably not be too happy with your scenario.... Incentives: $1 million for 5 games started or 25 innings $1M for 7 starts/35 innings $1M for 9 starts/45 innings $1.5M for 11 starts/55 innings $2M for 13 starts/65 innings $3M for 15 starts/75 innings
