Babe Ruth: Earth's Shohei Othani

K-Thani

Clearly, the experts knew what they were talking about when they wanted to send him to single A.

3 best players (Trout, Ohtani & Ohtani)

Ohtani pinch hit 9th inning Sayonara home run.

No-thani. Shohei pinch hit home run in the 9th. Calling it.

Disagree. Assuming Ohtani's skils are legit he's the biggest marketing phenomena for MLB since Bo Jackson and has the ability to pull in fans who aren't interested in baseball.

Othani vs the best hitting pitcher. Feel free to update: Shohei Othani 1 year/18 ABs/3 HR/7 RB/4 R/389 BA/421 OBP/889 SLG/1310 OPS Madison Bumgarner 9 years/487 ABs/16 D/17 HR/54 RBI/45 R/185 BA/232 OBP/322 SLG/555 OPS

I think exit "Velo" in relation to Ohtani is important because it indicates that he is a true hitter/position player and not a pitcher who hits good.

According to the MLB expert scouts, Ohtani is on pace to get a September call up from AAA.

So they just walked the pitcher with the bases loaded. And it's not embarrassing but a smart play. Think about that for a minute.

He's scared. Better to walk the Babe then give up 4 runs.

oh snap, bases loaded.

This games winnable. Might be able to steal it.

Assuming injury isn't a factor (which is hard to say) a guy who can produce at this level both ways is worth 1.5 times what the best player in the league is worth since he can impact the game alot more. Basically (dumbing it down) he has 8% impact as a pitcher (1 out of 6) and 5.5% as a hitter (1 out of 9) for a total impact 14.5%. The best pitcher in the league would have an 8% impact on a team and the best hitter 5.5%.

He's only on the roster because he got "Special Treatment"!

This is like a Sustainable Linsanity.

Maybe the major leagues is Quad A. And Japan is Pent A.

Dat's Wacist.

Pitcher Ohtani should be able to come in as a relief pitcher and bat for himself in the 4 spot. Then hitting Ohtani can keep batting at the 8 spot.

Guy sucks. Need 500 ABs in the minors before he can even sniff the major leagues.
