Looks like his timing is back. There were some bad looking at bats yesterday. It's good to see the adjustment so quickly.

I was always thinking that he need a rest after the all-star events. Im glad he hit a homerun at his last at-bat.

Oh man...isn't that just the story of the Angels. Hopefully Ohtani keeps it up when Trout gets back. Then they'll only lose by one....

Adjusting quickly is what he does. We saw it in the HR derby as well, he adjusted on the fly to how Brown was throwing. No other player would be able to adjust like that to do what he does.

This is why a pitcher can’t throw to him twice in the same manner. It is going to come down to either pitch differently to him every time, or pitch around him. Pitching around him is too dangerous when this lineup is healthy. Pitch around him to face Rendon, Fletcher, Walsh, Upton and who was it… Trout?

No matter how hot Ohtani gets, walking him is just as dangerous.

2018 Topps Chrome Blue Wave Refractor Auto PSA 10 ended today on Ebay at a best offer of 14,000. The Shohei market still remains hot.

Time to list mine. Price makes no sense, but a comp is a comp.

Not sure if posted. Is this Ohtani’s true RC superfractor? Don’t collect him and know he has a few.

Watching some of the content from the Dallas Card show that is coming out and saw this. Apparently the seller turned down $75k.

Far from "true" - that image is from the Walmart complete sets. Cool image, but not on the #700 or even HMT1 level.

Seriously, how can they have the two best players on the planet and still suck? I don’t get it.

Agree, the prices do not make sense. The current prices on my cards ending tonight are much higher than what I thought they would fetch and there is more than an hour left for the auctions to end. Perhaps my expectations were low.

Default Someone just woke up and realized Ohtani is producing:

I just did a BIN for an Ohtani Inception, not even 3 minutes went by then dude reneged:





"castroluis75", apparently the only Seller on eBay who hadn't realized that Ohtani is setting the world ablaze.

There has to be someway to report that. That’s pretty blatant.

You did good tonight. I think you got great prices on the PSA sapphire and HMT1 red. Good timing for him to hit that home run.

It's tough cause everyone is trying to make a buck on the next hot thing and for good or bad, that's Ohtani right now. When a card increases in value by 5-10x over a few months, this kind of stuff does happen.

Think of it this way - he probably needs the money more than you do to go through that kind of trouble and clown show.

you might be on to something, checking his Feedback history and it appears that Luciano Pavarotti card he had for sale only netted him $3.25
