He's not being played in game two with three games in 24 hrs. Being critical with a factual observation is fine, but why bother with unproductive negativity.

Make sense.

Now he’s 0-5 today.

LA Times say he is playing with a bruised hamstring.

Latest pick up...my first mini. Not a huge fan of the mini but decided to buy anyway. Did not get a great deal, but was noticing these are tending to go up in price while base goes down.

2018 A & G mini with A & G back.

the Minis are better because they are similar to the real sized A&Gs

Well he put a nice swing on it in the 1st but then right back to pounding the ball into the ground.

Three straight balls pounded into the ground. Something wrong with the backfoot weight transfer. Eesh.

I have never recalled a time when Shohei is hitting this badly. He looks completely lost at the plate, making a lot of strike outs or hitting easy ground balls. Not a very good trend at the moment. Perhaps he has a hamstring leg injury causing his timing to be off or some other minor stuff and hopefully this will cure itself. Else, his talent is deteriorating by our very eyes right in front of us. Let's hope not.

The guy is in a slump in his prime! Not in the downside of his career. Whatever the problem is, not matter how bad the slump Ohtani always seems to fix it at some point. I am not worried!

A few days in the MLB is like 10 minutes of 1 NFL game. It's over.

Would like to see Ohtani stay in the box and keep his head on the ball.

He's bailing out of the box and out of control it seems. Watching pitches down the middle and then swinging at less competitive pitches.

He is still hurt. The slump began right after he was nailed in the hammy.

Crap, I guess I should've waited a little longer to burn all my cards.
