It's like trying to throw a football while holding a baseball. It looks funky as hell. Also, the seams can be hidden and it's thrown with the same armspeed as a fastball.

So, the batter will see the arm speed of a fastball and won't see any funky seam spin (say from a curve or slider), but the ball will go slower than a fastball and take a left-turn after it goes 58 feet.

=================
Also, put that $51mil in to perspective.

That's $51mil to get an unbelievable foothold in the east asian market. TV/Ad revenue, Jerseys, etc etc.

That's a 26yo pitcher that is probably the best on the market and a #1a to go with Curt and provide insurance in case Paps shoulder or Beckett still isn't a rotation anchor.

That's preventing anybody else from getting him. Especially the Yankees.
