Edward Mujica is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on May 10, 1984 in Valencia, Valencia, Venezuela. Edward José Mujica (Spanish pronunciation: [muˈxika] ; born May 10, 1984) is a Venezuelan former professional baseball pitcher. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Cleveland Indians, San Diego Padres, Florida/Miami Marlins, St. Louis Cardinals, Boston Red Sox, Oakland Athletics and Detroit Tigers.
Mujica was awarded the win in the first ever regular season game at Citi Field against the New York Mets on April 13, 2009.
Following the 2010 season, Mujica was traded with Ryan Webb to the Marlins for Cameron Maybin.
Mujica is mainly a two-pitch pitcher, utilizing a four-seam fastball at 90-93 mph and a splitter at 86-89. He also has a two-seam fastball in the same velocity range as his four-seamer, and a slider in the low 80s. Lefties see a very heavy diet of splitters; in 2011, they constituted more than half of the pitches he threw to left-handers. Right-handed hitters tend to see a greater assortment of pitches, including the slider (which Mujica rarely uses against lefties).
Mujica began 2006 in Akron, where he recorded eight saves without surrendering an earned run, 17 strikeouts, and nine walks in 19 innings before getting promoted to Triple-A Buffalo. For Buffalo, he was 3–1 with five saves, a 2.48 ERA, 29 strikeouts, and five walks in 32 ⁄3 innings. He made his major league debut with Cleveland on June 21, 2006. Mujica did not surrender an earned run in 2006 until his fourth appearance with the Indians, on July 14, a streak of 43 ⁄3 consecutive innings (19 for Akron, 19 ⁄3 for Buffalo and 4 ⁄3 for Cleveland).
