✹The PERENNIAL Shohei Ohtani Thread✹

[TGCollector]

Huge opportunity with bases loaded and Ohtani strikes out. Still struggling with RISP.

Onto the next game and more. Hope he could at least get a single base hit to cheer everyone up.

imagine being worried about Ohtani?

[seanrs1]

Very excited to be going to the game tonight! Tough match up for Ohtani with Skubal on the mound.

The real question is do I wear my Tigers jersey or my Ohtani jersey?

NICE!

Enjoy it!

pick 1 (same price, both psa 9):

2018 Bowman Chrome Blue /150 RC (Hitting)

2018 Topps Clearly Authentic Auto /75

[Trueblue]

I firmly dislike acetate autos. So while I think the BC rookie is a bit overrated, I would prefer that.

No brainer for me. Bowman chrome blue

Thanks, that's my feeling, too. Do you think the BC value ends up falling or not growing much longer term as compared to TC for example?

I own an ungraded version of the clearly authentic and would definitely take the Bowman Chrome Blue over it. I honestly don't like the Clearly Authentic much but it's my only licensed Ohtani rookie auto and I'd have to sell it and some other stuff if I wanted to upgrade to a better one

People pay a premium for it because it's the first Bowman Chrome base and it's a batting image. In reality, though, it's not the first Bowman image or first Bowman chrome. That honor belongs to the CRA-SO. If you really need to get a batting image, I would prefer Topps finest for the price. It's just a matter of value.

Makes sense, thanks for your input as always True!

[Vdm2018]

Back to back hitless games.

[Ziggy]

That last strikeout..really went for the fences on that one.

[Trueblue]

Well, I'll take it, thought it was gone.

[Qubits]

That was nice.

Now everyone is happy.

Who knows when he will hit a hr. I predict 2 more weeks.

One wrong prediction per day, please.

Look for one in the All-Star Game. No, two! No, the cycle!

Skenes will also face Judge (and probably every other batter he faces) for the first time in that game.
