Sportswriters, fans and team officials watched today as 35-year-old starting pitcher Hozpog Knifecrawler committed to a $58,200,000, 3-year deal with the Numenor organization.
Some openly worry that despite his talent, Knifecrawler is too old to get it done anymore and that his value to the club will sharply diminish before the 3-year agreement has run its course.
Knifecrawler has a lifetime record of 182 wins and 138 losses and a 3.61 ERA.
