He’s the best so far I’ve seen in 60 years of watching baseball, way back Willie mays, Joe demaggio. He’s an amazing athlete, doesn’t complain, just do what it takes to get the job done. To the teams that traded him, I bet they are feeling bad. He sales tickets.
The pure expectation of 700M player the gambling bullshit the money stolen by your best friend, not knowing the language and adapting to a new team, marrying his girlfriend, training his dog, nothing the guy can’t do and it’s not over.
Quite amazing that he could put all that stuff behind him and STILL perform the way that he does. *Oh and while recovering from major arm surgery might I add.
“NO MLB Player, past or present CAN Pitch, Hit & Steal … PERIOD.” Like MJ, Brady & Messi, Sho-Time is SAVING Baselball & causing us to return just to watch him.
Imagine Yankees vs. Dodgers in this year's World Series. Aaron Judge vs Shohei Ohtani. Down to game 7, Dodgers lead by 1 and with a man on 3rd base, 2 outs and Judge at the plate and Shohei comes in to close the game with a strkeout to win the World Series.
The obvious reason Shogun Goatani can do both pitch and hit, he pitches right handed and bats left handed. He grew up using his whole body, both limbs and legs. Precise, power, and speed. He’s bespoke, period
@@dunnbrandon I’ve never ever thought of an Athlete being Bespoke much like a motor from a posh auto manufacturer. You’re absolutely correct I cannot think of another athlete world wide who has the customization of mastering betting and pitching. That and he does his homework. I wonder how much video of opposing pitchers him and the Dodgers evaluate? Further, him being a great pitcher give him a deeper, more intuitive function which helps him offensively.
It was cheap when they estimated Dodgers would bring in atleast 50 million a year directly to the Dodgers So they really are only paying him 200 million over 20 years
That's why it's hard for normal people to understand how it's possible he didn't know about the missing millions that were stolen. He literally spends all his free time studying on how to be a better baseball player- this year more on stealing bases as not as much time is spent on pitching prep. The Arizona mgr said the same thing in terms of his prep time.
That like me taking some water out your tap water and asking how much water you have left. That stupid! He sleep 14 hours and train and play with the rest of his day. He have real shit to worry about than money because he thought he can trust them
I dont think any business owner that is also a baseball fan will ever accept a cent from Mr. 50/50. Everyone is so grateful to be alive to be blessed to have seen it themselves! His money is probably not good anywhere anymore. Mr. 50/50 is Mr. Carta Blanche as well now too! Regular civilians have no idea what this feels like! It's like being shown a miracle 😢😢!
Since i started collecting baseball cards as a kid. I thought it was going to be Ken Griffey Jr, to try and get there first. I am so glad it turned out to be a Dodger instead. My hometown. Where i was born! It happened here! Thank you Aneheim for fumbling the bag! P.S. Thank you Clippers for doing the same with Kobe RIP😢😢😢
Yes this will open up for 2 way players in mlb.. but these kids have to remember the reason shohei is so good and can play 2 way at the big league is because.. He pitches right but bats left.
Mike Trout, in many people's eyes, not too long, was and is still considered the greatest of all time and yet he never won a championship, not even a playoff game. But Shohei needs one just to be in the conversation?
Baseball was a dying sport. Most seats were empty during most games. Now all of the sudden you baseball nerds have so much to talk about including being on every news station. What are you baseball nerds bragging about?
That's the con of being a power hitter. But look at the pros. 50+ homers. His exit velocity is always top notch. Sure, it's just a bit concerning, but he's the best hitter of the team and the NL league, so I don't why they have to talk about the negative instead of the positive things.
Shohei will do whatever the team needs in October.
That 700 million contract is worth every penny.
Underpaid
He’s putting the Dodgers name in the history books. There is no monetary value you can put on for what he brings to the organization.
Lol. The Dodgers already make it all back in tickets and his doll's.😅
Bargain!
Who would ever have imagined that would be a deal

I've heard that, he didn't sleep well for months.
“NO MLB Player, past or present CAN Pitch, Hit & Steal … PERIOD.”

Yea, he’s pulling in casual sports fans from all over the world to watch baseball, which is beautiful for the sport. He’s like Superman
Imagine Yankees vs. Dodgers in this year's World Series. Aaron Judge vs Shohei Ohtani. Down to game 7, Dodgers lead by 1 and with a man on 3rd base, 2 outs and Judge at the plate and Shohei comes in to close the game with a strkeout to win the World Series.
GOAT!
Not hardly
Thanks Ned for bringing up Roberts. I think he's a phenomenal Manager.😊
Longevity and playoff performance both
He’s the best player already. GOAT will come w 5 more great years
The obvious reason Shogun Goatani can do both pitch and hit, he pitches right handed and bats left handed. He grew up using his whole body, both limbs and legs. Precise, power, and speed. He’s bespoke, period
that's one of many reasons.

Ned is awesome... Thanks Ned
With how Shohei been performing... I see him coming in to close out game 7 against Yankees.
Against Judge....wow what a match up that would be....two great players
Watch the WBC closing on Trout. That was nerve wracking insane.
Yankees will be eliminated by Astros again 😂😂
Go Astros
Game 7, you mean game 4 dodgers sweep the yanks
Suddenly the $700 mil contract is very cheap.
Hope he stays in LA but can he re-negotiate in a few years??
Shannon Sharpe mentioned $700M was cheap. He’s worth a good 1BN because now his $700m contract was too little. Ohtani wants to win more than anything.
It was cheap when they estimated Dodgers would bring in atleast 50 million a year directly to the Dodgers
So they really are only paying him 200 million over 20 years

He let his interpreter handle all the managerial aspects of his career. All the money, everything. They were great friends and he got backstabbed.
Shohei will hit 2 homerun and 2 SB tonight.
let go.. maybe a repeat..
Tied judge in the HR standing
Close enough. He is in the zone right now.
Ohtani is the GOAT, and I don’t care what anyone says 😂

How can it be a club when it’s only one person in it???????
Every club starts with one and anyone is welcome to join.
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:
50+ Home Runs
50+ Stolen Bases
Yes this will open up for 2 way players in mlb.. but these kids have to remember the reason shohei is so good and can play 2 way at the big league is because..
He pitches right but bats left.
Using his left and right obliques so they don’t get overworked
Next year, both Triple Crowns in the same season!
No pressure ...
Why not CY also
Payback for not including him in the MLB All Star Games during the early years.
He needs a Championship 🏆🏆🏆 to be the "GOAT".
Mike Trout, in many people's eyes, not too long, was and is still considered the greatest of all time and yet he never won a championship, not even a playoff game. But Shohei needs one just to be in the conversation?
@@taze27yes he needs at least 5 more good years. He doesn’t lead in any major stat categories and zero WS titles
@stevesmith756 ridi culous take. We talking best player not beat team. Atop the nonsense.
This Guy is an Amazing baseball player, I thought Canseco 40-40 was a great achievement 😅
40-40 is great, 50-50 is just another level.
Shohei is streaky. He hits homerun in bunches.
Most home run hitters are streaky
Ohtani is more constant than Judge
Pretty soon you'll have to take out a 30 year loan to go to a game forget about food and beer.

If you put Ruff in today lineup shit…..😅
Baseball was a dying sport. Most seats were empty during most games. Now all of the sudden you baseball nerds have so much to talk about including being on every news station. What are you baseball nerds bragging about?
I don’t understand why no one talk about the strike outs he has and others which are not very good 😂
For the same reason why no one talks about the fact that Kobe Bryant has missed the most shots in NBA history.
That's the con of being a power hitter. But look at the pros. 50+ homers. His exit velocity is always top notch. Sure, it's just a bit concerning, but he's the best hitter of the team and the NL league, so I don't why they have to talk about the negative instead of the positive things.
He didn't pitch this year so no strikeouts 🤣 But he is the founder of the 30HR and 200K club.
Also the founder of the $700 million club. Which should have been $Billion dollar club. This guy is humble and hard worker.
Probably because they all understand the game more than you will ever do.
