MLB / 10-Minute Chat With Otani Is SECRET Kenta Maeda: Not Telling You

Otani Xiang Ping recently met with Maeda Kenta to attract the attention of the Japanese media, as to talk about what? "Secret," Maeda said, "is not that mysterious, but I can't say."

The two had a pleasant meeting in left field before the game, with Ohtani smiling like a child until his cheekbones burst and he flashed his elbow. Then Maeda entered the bullpen. Ohtani threw a ball first, and when Maeda's workout was over, Ohtani entered the bullpen immediately after.

Maeda, who was 0-4 with a 9.00 defense percentage in four starts this season, went on the disabled list at the end of April with a strained right triceps and has not thrown in the bullpen for a long time. Maeda said he feels better pitching now than he did before going on the disabled list.

Both are veterans of TJ surgery, and Maeda revealed that the conversation with Otani included the condition of his elbow after surgery, "a lot of conversation, but I can't talk about it." "I've heard a lot of advice about TJ surgery, not only from Otani, but also from Yu Darvish and his teammates," he said.
