Maeda becomes the newest member of a projected rotation that consists of pitchers in their 20s, possibly including Joey Wentz, Matt Manning, Alex Faedo, Reese Olson, Tarik Skubal, and Casey Mize.
Harris stated, “We really like a lot of the things he does, and we hope that will rub off on our young starters.”Entering his second full season as the team’s manager, Harris might add more players to the mound.He declared, “You’ll never hear me say we have enough pitching.
”Maeda has made 155 starts and 35 relief appearances for the Los Angeles Dodgers and Minnesota, posting a record of 65-49 and a 3.92 ERA.
Having played for the Twins for the previous three years, he returned from Tommy John surgery more than two years ago and finished the season 6-8 with a 4.23 ERA in 20 starts and one relief appearance.
Maeda’s velocity reached pre-surgery levels, according to Harris, which increased his confidence that signing him was a good idea. Maeda reached a peak velocity of 92.3 mph in 2018, but her four-seam fastball only averaged 90.9 mph this year, up from 90.8 mph in 2021.
He stated, “We felt pretty comfortable offering two years.” “It provides our rotation with a little bit more continuity.”
Maeda has agreed to give the team’s charitable foundation $70,000 in 2019 and $50,000 in 2025.
