My buddy and i was discussing these future contracts that Harper and Machado have coming up. With contracts getting so high (i would much rather the player get paid than the owner) do you ever foresee a performance clause that protects the organization if a player doesn't reach expected numbers?

Mr Santiago. Thank yout for taking the time to answer these questions for the fans. I've been curious to get a response from a professional pitcher. I know long toss is the best thing to do to build up arm strength as a young player but at what age or grade level would you suggest waiting before taking the mound. I can't imagine there are a lot of big leaguers today that pitch that have been taking the mound since the age of 8. Thanks again.

Mr. Santigo. Thank you for tajing the time to answer questions for all the fans of the game. I've been curious to get a response from a professional pitcher. I know long toss is the best thing for a pitcher to build up arm strength but at what age or grade level would you suggest a child to wait until before he starts to take the mound? I have to believe there aren't a lot of pitchers at the MLB that have been pitching since the age of 8. Thanks again.
