Yeah doesn’t decline start around 32? Also in terms of being the same as Ichiro, I believe Ohtani is much bigger than him so can’t really compare how he might age. I'm a huge Judge fan but even I can admit bigger guys don't age well.

Nobody sleeps like Shohei! Sleep was one of Brady's top reasons for longevity. Then diet, which I'm pretty sure he has locked down too. A lot of these guys eat like crap and would look like Lance Lynn if they weren't playing baseball.

I like watching him play and he’s great for baseball so I hope both him and Judge play well into their 30s.

I remember when he did one of those GQ 10 favorite things deals on youtube and it was all things that help him sleep or help him play baseball better. Dude optimizes his entire life to become a baseball god.

Whoops, I meant US285, not 700 . I was a big RD hater until I realized it had a place as the only non variation flagship batting parallel. Better late than never

I know I am in the minority, but I like the RD cards. It is an actual photo from the players RD. Not a photo brushed picture like many others. Maybe one day it will pick up more steam in the hobby.

Pretty cool chart that someone posted on Reddit. It looks like Sho just decided to start stealing a s-ton of bags one day when Betts got hurt . Dude is pretty capable.

Rookie debuts are wildly underrated. I love picking up a good RD, notably with a great image (or in this case, the hitting image).

That blue is gorgeous, congrats.

Dave Roberts wouldn’t rule out Ohtani not pitching in the playoffs..

I wonder how much the hamstring injury played a part in this.
