Josh Hader is expected to demand 20mil per year in free agency. He pitched only 57 innings for the Padres this year and only averages about 60 innings per year in his career. That means if he gets the 20mil contract, he will be getting roughly $330k per inning pitched.
Almost as crazy as, at one point, A-Rod was making over $60k per plate appearance.
