The A's should sign Kenta Maeda. Here's why.
KING KENTA - (Video NSFW)
I got a ball to trick
I don't want you monkey mouth batflippers standin' at my plate again
(Aye aye pitcher, whats happenin' pitcher, K Maed back in the hood pitcher)
I'm mad (He mad), but I'm still hurlin'
True friends, one question
Pitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game got the whole world talkin', King Kenta
Everybody wanna knock the ball off him, Kenta
Japanese n' taking no losses
Pitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin', King Kenta
Everybody wanna knock the ball off him
When you got the ZIPS (What's the ZIPS?)
The ZIPS is the power that be
You can see it when you're lookin' down spreadsheets
(Oh yes we can, oh yes we can)
I can dig pitching, but a pitcher with a strike framer?
What the heck happened? (Oh no) I swore I wouldn't tell
But most of y'all fear bats, like you got the bottom bunk in a Tampa Rays hotel
(A Rays hotel)
Something's with the batter (Something's with the batter)
And if I got a big nose for some outs then I'd rather be a pitcher than a batflippin' baller
Pitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game got the whole world talkin', King Kenta
Everybody wanna knock the ball off him, Kenta
Japanese n' taking no losses
Pitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin', King Kenta
Everybody wanna knock the ball off him
When you got the ZIPS (What's the ZIPS?)
The ZIPS brought it out of Mark Prior
Manipulated Bud Selig with desires
Full season 162 games times one
I was contemplatin' takin' the mound
Just to go back to Japan see my enemies and say
Pitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game got the whole world talkin', King Kenta
Everybody wanna knock the ball off him, Kenta
Japanese n' taking no losses
Pitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin', King Kenta
Everybody wanna knock the ball off him
I was gonna 'K' a couple batters but they did it to themselves
Everybody's swingin' wild they don't even need my help
These pitches elementary, I'll probably go to the Hall
If I throw at your helmet and bounce to the left
Stuck a flag in my city, everybody's screamin' "Osaka"
I should probably run for Manager when I'm done, to be honest
And I put that on my Mama and my baby boo too
Twenty thousand walkin' out the stadium, woo woo!
Ah yeah, screw the ump
I made it past 25 and there I was
A little sweaty headed pitcher with the world behind him
Life ain't hits but a grand salami
Screamin' "Ichiro, you ok? Ichiro, you ok?"
Golden pitching over home plate
Straight from Japan, this the belly of the Majors
From a rookie to a Carp to an Oakland Athletic
Pitch where was you when I was -
(By the time you hear the next strike, the 'K' shall be within you)
Now I run the game got the whole world talkin', King Kenta
Everybody wanna knock the ball off him, (King) Kenta
Japanese n' taking no losses
Pitch where was you when I was walkin'
Now I run the game got the whole world talkin', King Kenta
Everybody wanna knock the ball off him
We want the out
(Now if I give you the out, you gon' take it)
We want the out
(Now if I give you the out, you gon' take it)
We want the out
(Now if I give you the out, you gon' take it)
We want the out
(Do you want the out?)
We want the out
(Do you want the out?)
We want the out
(Now if I give you the out, you gon' take it)
We want the out
I remember you was conflicted, misusing your changeup
