Where is this mythical land Ohtani comes from where 2-way players are the norm or even encouraged??

Please stop embarrassing yourself.

I've been ignoring your nonsense on this thread so far but this post from you was just too much.


Either way I hope Judge can come back healthy soon.
My point was most Ohtani fan boyz have repeatedly told us that he is so valuable because he plays two positions. Likewise, you also have to realize, he's a huge risk and liability if injured because you then lose two players. So, it goes both ways in that he is more valuable and a higher risk which makes him a little less valuable.

Again, you obviously can't comprehend a point. Ohtaini is unique and one of a kind because like another poster said, he had the talent and drive to ensure he could be a two-way player in Japan and then here in the US. No one does this in the US or Hispanic countries coming up because they are told to specialize and usually fall in line; my guess is because they want to make it to the Show and don't want to anger the status quo. We'll probably never know if another player, not named Ohtani, could be doing the things he's doing.

Never said everyone could do it. But if you believe Ohtani is the only human who could do it, then I guess you must think he's a God.

The Yankees usually own Ohtani on the mound too.

There's no way he's going to become a Yankee though.

He's going nowhere. Moreno will open the checkbook.

He needs to sign somewhere else so he can win some World Series. I don't want to see him become Trout Part II.

Sadly I believe Ohtani will stay in LAA where he and Trout will rot in playoff purgatory for the next 10 years. Houston will reload and win more WS, Tex and Seattle will build contenders, and LAA will pump its 4th and last place finishing teams with losing record MVPs.

This is still by far the weirdest way to try to discredit Ohtani

Aaron Judge fandom - the only place where a player can be so valuable that they become less valuable.

No one is trying to discredit Ohtani. You can't say he is more valuable to his team because he plays two positions without admitting that the risk of him being injured and losing two players is just as great thus at that time making him less valuable then if you just had 2 players because then you would only lose 1. That's the point none of the Ohtaini fan boyz seem to understand.

Ohtani isn’t Judge… he can actually stay on the field.

Has nothing to do with being a fan of Judge. I'm just a realist and not a fan boy of any player. The only reason Judge even enters the conversation is because people in here still believe Ohtani was robbed of the MVP last year by Judge.

I swear you Ohtani fan boyz are worse than Brady fan boyz. It makes it really hard to like the player thanks to his overzealous fans.

I love when Boston trolls who boycott baseball when their team sucks get involved. I seem to recall Ohtani having Tommy John surgery in 2019 limiting him to 106 games at DH and only playing 104 games his rookie year.

He is the only one that can do it and he is not God. Believe me if anyone of those head swollen egos could do it they would have done it. They won't try it because they can't do it. Ohtani should have won MVP last year but in my opinion got robbed. Same as Jokic in basketball.

He does seem to have some physical advantages in terms of build and proportions that makes it possible. Similar to how a guy like Michael Phelps was built to be a swimmer.

He should play the field then and not just DH.
