LMFAOO I know this was when they thought he didn’t hit it out when he did and redid the swing but I can see Manfred making rules like this
I still can’t get over the fact that Ohtani had 1.300+ OPS, hit a HR, stole a base to third, had 8RBI, started in 2 games and came out as a winning pitcher both games, and had a save as a closer 🤯 HR, stole a base, started, and closed in a single tournament. This god is OP 😅
To celebrate Ohtani’s legendary double header performance, I will be giving away WBC Ohtani t-shirt or Ohtani face shirt to 2 winners! First winner gets the first pick. To enter, like and retweet this post, and follow me! Winner announced on Saturday 7/29!
Imagine telling Ohtani that he has to be ranked first overall on one side AND put up an above average numbers on other to win MVP, while others can just be first on one side and not even be top 200 in the other.
Ohtani still deserves a mega deal for everything he’s done. Fuck Rendon should be giving 90% of his salary to Ohtani too. I still believe he’ll come back strong again like he did previously.
Do people not realize that Ohtani is actually better than last year? Just cuz his offensive numbers like HR went down, it doesn’t mean he’s that much worse. Most fans only know how to count HR, and nothing else 💀 and pitching is significantly better as well. He’s my MVP.
Bro had media on his ass 24/7 since high school, even elementary school and somehow hid all info about his wife and scandals. HOW?!?!?! 🤯 that’s the insane part to me how everyone surrounding him is trustworthy like that.
The difference between Noah and Ohtani. Ohtani gives up just 2 ER and still lost. Thor goes to Phillies and gives up 4 runs and they’re still winning. That’s the fuckin difference

OHTANI FIRST JAPANESE BORN HR KING BABY!!!!! AND HE MISSED THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER IS CRAZY 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 AND HE ENDED UP BEING THE BEST HITTER IN MLB THIS SEASON AND HE WAS ON PACE TO BE TOP 5 CY AGAIN. THIS IS INSANE AND RIDICULOUS. NEVER FORGET. SHOHEI OHTANI IS GOD OF BASEBALL.
Team Japan’s catcher didn’t even practice at all with Ohtani even in the BP and managed to catch those 100+mph fastballs and that nasty slider against Trout 🤯 Ohtani literally just told Nakahara “stay tough and stay ready to catch.”
"[Shohei Ohtani is] a transcendent talent. Sports, professional sports, are about great players, and he is one of the greatest."
—MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred
I was actually moved when Trout dove for that ball in 8th inning, which became ground rule double. He hasn’t been doing that and it felt like he really ddnt wanna blow Shohei’s win 🥹
People forget that whatever Ohtani deal is gonna be, it’s gonna be a steal cuz you get 3 players by signing him. Pitcher Ohtani, Hitter Ohtani, and Ippei.
So you guys do realize that Shohei pitched 5 games against Astros this year and didn’t lose a single game and dominated them every time.
Against a team that hasn’t lost in PS this year yet.
If USA wins them all, Trout is winning MVP this season.
If Mexico wins them all, Sandoval is winning Cy Young this season.
If Japan wins them all, Ohtani is winning Cy Young AND MVP this season.
Angels win 🏆
I’m still dissatisfied at how war is calculated. Yesterday Shohei hit a single and 2R HR and gets 0.1 rwar, while Judge walked twice and hit solo HR and gets 0.2 rwar. Shohei literally pitched 2 days ago and played yesterday too. That’s harder than just standing in the OF.
Angels fans: “I love Ohtani but you should still be able to criticize him when he doesn’t do well”
Ohtani pitches a QS w/ 10K in a 1 run ball game, comes out with a privilege of a winning pitcher. Lowers his era to sub 3 and leads the AL with Ks.
Angels fans:
Damn I knew Angels would tank if they ddnt re-sign Ohtani but they’re tanking worse than expected and it shows how much Ohtani actually carried the team but people told me he was the clubhouse cancer + 6man was bad and he clogged the DH spot so everyone got injured.
Ohtani rested 2 innings yesterday because he had forearm cramps (everyone was scared he’s out for the season) and he’s out here making up for it today with 2HR so far. Did we not learn that he’s different from our other players? 😳
Ben better english please 😭 He’s donating 3 gloves per school totaling to 60,000 gloves. Not 60,000 gloves to every elementary school in Japan cuz that’s kinda crazy 😭
I still don’t understand how some think Acuña’s season was better than Ohtani’s. Literally Ohtani had better offensive season and pitched at an elite level simultaneously. While Acuña stole 70 bases the year they made it easier to steal. Ohtani’s offense overall was better as is.

I’m dumbfounded by this. SI is bias towards football 🙄 Yes I watch both football and baseball. There’s just no explanation as to why Brady would be over Ohtani this season. No one agrees with this and if they do, they don’t know shit
Shohei doesn’t need to move a single cm today. Please hire me to carry him around everywhere he needs to go. Bathroom, shower, massage, airplane, packing, hotels, taxi, anything. I will happily do this for him for free! Rest well my king 👑
“At first I was pitching kinda forcefully and I was able to pitch more relaxed later on.”
“There were more lefties in their libeup than usual, so I decided to pitch a little different slider than normal and it worked out well.” <—— ??????🤯
@chuckydizzle14
Hitting stats are slightly close but Ohtani still clearly above him, base running isn’t even a debate lmao Ohtani deserves the all-stars and MVP votes over Ozuna at this time and date.
Lmao the comment section is hilarious. So many “fans” don’t want Ohtani on the team anymore for a slump while he still leads the team in HR, RBI, SB, and almost everything in pitching 🤷♂️
***GIVEAWAY***
To promote Ohtani’s underrated historical season, every time he reaches any of these milestones (200+K, 35HR, 162IP), I will choose a winner for these cards.

@MikeTrout
sees the pitchers tipping, and Shohei coaches the pitchers in the dugout allowing them to strikeout the side. What the actual fuck is Matt Wise doing.
Stephen A Smith thinks Shohei is bad to be the face of baseball cuz he needs an interpreter. Little does he know that Ippei is also the face of baseball 🤷♂️
No way people saying Ohtani ddnt deserve when his just offense is better than basically everyone and then he had a shutout game 😭 like everyone is normalizing this too much now.
Shohei Ohtani leads the

Best baseball player on the planet and it is not close.
Lmao so many Yankees fans can’t accept the fact Ohtani is one of the best hitter in the league simultaneously being the top 5 in pitching 🤣 no wonder they don’t think he’s the MVP 🤷♂️ they only believe to see one side of the ball game.
If Ohtani’s ops is above .900, hits 35+ HR, gets 2.60era with 200+K, and pitches 162innings, he’s no doubt the MVP.
Just simply qualifying IP and hitting is already never done by even the steroid users so what makes people think that this is less valuable than 60+ HR 🤷♂️
Ohtani earlier in the season: “I don’t have a sinker in my arsenal.”
Also Ohtani: “hmmm I don’t have my slider today. Let me just try throwing a sinker.”
??????
Shohei got 8RBI IN 1 game while Paredes got 9 in a week. Shohei also went 8innings 13SO 0ER the next day while Paredes hit .500avg for 1 week. Ohtani is hella underrated rn wtf is this bs. People stops appreciating real quick

Smfh people are still blaming Ohtani on the loss yesterday cuz he ddnt hit in the 9th while he was involved in 5 of our runs? 😒 he wasn’t clutch even tho he hit a grand slam? Y’all just wanna hate. Blame the others who made errors and couldn’t score shit all night.
