I’ll try to stay away from players I haven’t seen in my lifetime…

Stat hoarders that are probably more famous for moments/personality:

-George Brett pine tar
-Nolan Ryan Ventura fight
-Nolan Ryan Bo Bloody Jersey (who many incorrectly think this was from the fight)
-Ozzie Smith gymnastics
-Randy Johnson pigeon
-Pete Rose head first slides/Fosse
-Rickey Henderson neon green batting gloves/pimping HRs
-Cal Ripken just playing everyday
-Barry Bonds BALCO
-Pedro Martinez Tossing Zimmer
-Derek Jeter Gift Baskets

Stat guys that are boring:

-Frank Thomas
-Albert Pujols
-Miguel Cabrera
-Mike Trout
-Aaron Judge
-Tony Gwynn
-Wade Boggs (playing days)
-Robin Yount
-Mike Schmidt
-Jeff Bagwell
-Greg Maddux
-Adrian Beltre

Stat guys that are boring but we haven’t ever seen it before:
-Ohtani

This might be THE most ridiculous take I've read on Blowout ever. And that's saying a lot.

Why else would Ohtani be in a totally different category?

No, the feats aren’t boring….he is. Hence why he is his own category. He has no personality. He will be remembered as a unicorn and is why he isn’t in the Frank Thomas group.
