Sounds like he wants to win and knows when enough is enough.

Nice! I've got one of those too. Except it's still sealed in the box. Just take my word for it.

Thank guys. I decided to let my hate go for no RC insignia on A/G. Glad it wasn't too late.

I'd joke about ripping, but that probably costs more than what I got this auto for

I think Ohtani understands basic math. And he's probably better than you and me and everyone on this board at everything. But what if there are things in life worth more than money? What if he just made himself more than 250 million? The goodwill of millions of fans. The anger and confusion of millions of greedy a-holes. The part of the movie where the guy left a ton of money on the table, because he just wanted to win.

He makes $50M a year on marketing and probably more beginning next year. He is a guy that gave his entire paycheck to his mom to invest and got a $1,000 allowance, which he hardly ever spent.

He gives up nothing meaningful for him, to win. How is he not a genius.

Ohtani is now going to have TWO rules named after him when it's all said and done.

How much longer until MLB gives out the annual Shohei Ohtani award?

I cannot wait for the Shohei Ohtani documentary in 15-20 years

The episode on this off-season sure will be fun

Been meaning to ask for those with some insight...how does Dodger Stadium play in terms of HR balls? Ohtani hits a ton of long fly balls to center. Assuming he hits the ball as hard as he has in the past do you think his HR totals per season will go up, down, or stay relatively the same?
