4. Kansas City Royals pitcher Gil Meche, 32 years old and troubled by a shoulder injury,
decided in 2011 to retire from baseball. The decision would not be considered particularly
newsworthy beyond the sports pages except that Meche passed up the $ 12 million final year of
his contract by doing so. Others in similar situations have reported to spring training, gone
through the motions and collected their big paychecks. Meche said, “When I signed my
contract, my main goal was to earn it. Once I started to realize I wasn’t earning my money, I felt
bad.” Meche thought he had already earned enough from the Royals: “Making that amount of
money from a team that’s already given me over $ 40 million for my life and for my kids, it just
wasn’t the right thing to do.”

a. Was Meche employing utilitarian or formalist reasoning? Explain.
