If you're in a frame where the ball-thrower is at rest and the 
ball-catcher is moving, then the ball has a kinetic energy of 
(1/2)m(x)^2 and the ball-cather has a kinetic energy of (1/2)M(y)^2.

There is nothing in either frame that has kinetic energy that is 
proportional to (x+y)^2. To find out how much the energy of impact is 
(say in an inelastic collision), then you have to solve conservation of 
momentum equations to find out how much the post-collision system is 
moving and then you'll know how much kinetic energy was converted.
