My Take
Otake does not throw hard, which in modern baseball is near heresy. He wins on location and timing, letting hitters beat themselves. A developmental contract with SoftBank, then a move to Hanshin, where he became a rotation anchor. Any kid chasing velocity should watch him instead: throwing hard and pitching well are not the same skill.
