I was told that it's not bad for a high school level hitter that is a slightly above average pitcher.

An April 2018 article that Jeff Passan has referenced through the years -
An apology to Shohei Ohtani on how Passan was wrong about him...

I absolutely agree.
We can all have who we want to be our GOAT (or UNICORN, as New Balance says)...

We can all agree to (respectfully) disagree.

Probably because who people think as the GOAT is really an opinion and not fact.

Anyone else bid on the 2025 S2 Indy PSA 8 that ended today? Sold for $224.72 with 36 bids. I thought it would go for <$150.

Prices are definitely climbing in the offseason!

I was thinking he’d just figure out how to win ALCS and NLCS MVP this year. I mean, c’mon, Shohei!
