Wonder if he has injury problems. He doesn't throw too many innings or times.

They have bigger rotations in Japan. Plus they only play like 130 games, that's why not that much.

What's the track record of Japanese pitchers in their mid 30's making the transition over to the States? I'm guessing it isn't good.
