I signed Corey Kluber to a 5 year $130 mil extension and he pitched well for the first two years of the contract, then he had an elbow injury in Spring Training and came back in July and struggled big time, had an ERA around 5.10 in September but I kept running him out there every 5th day. In year 4 he was unusable as starter, I think his ERA was 12.00+ in his first 5 starts, so I put him in the bullpen and he finished the year with an ERA around 6.50 and thankfully he decided to retire after that season and I was off the hook for the last $31 mil for that season, he did make it into the Hall of Fame and I turned him into a pitching coach and he hung around my minor leagues for a while.
