    I was at the complete game in Detroit last Thursday. He's the best player I've ever seen in person. And I've seen guys like Bonds, Jeter, Rivera, and Ortiz play before.

    If you're a fan of baseball in general, you have to be rooting for the Angels this year, if not for Shohei. Shohei's historic season deserves to be rewarded with a playoff appearance at the very least.

      I'm hoping Shohei continues to play well and the angels collapse. As much as I would like to see the team do well, they don't have trout (shocker) so they probably won't get far at all. Plus, I want there to be a 0% chance Shohei stays with this franchise who has done nothing but show they are incapable of building a contender. Get out of there asap Shohei.

    The Angels failed him back in 21, he had an amazing season and didn’t make offs. Now the angels must go , they need to change everything in their power to push for an playoff appearence. We as baseball fans need to see Shohei Ohtani playing in october because his season has been unbelievable.

    The problem is all the teams now are too chicken to pitch to Shohei and are walking him. Is more about the rest of the team than anything else. Even the best team of the league, the Braves are walking Shohei as we speak.

      It's not even that Ohtani's unpopular, it's that baseball isn't popular enough to spread his name further. He's literally almost as famous as baseball itself is rn.

  • @rodneygong8226
    @rodneygong8226 Před 11 měsíci +7

    The angels have so many talented and good players injured rn. I'm confident that you can take all their injured players, make a team, and they'd be better than more than half the teams currently in the league (batting wise at least). That's part of the reason why the angels are still behind yankees and other teams despite looking decent at the start of the year. They have so many key players injured that I'm surprised they're still fighting for a wildcard spot and they're not that far behind either.

    The risk they took is incredible they demolished their farm system to the point their minor league needs position players to pitch even if they don't win it all and make it to the playoffs it's a story that will go down in their franchise history

    • @sleepyheadz
      @sleepyheadz Před 11 měsíci +2

      At least they can say they are developing more 2-way players in the minors using position players to pitch. lol If that doesn't work out, it still inflates the BA of other minor league teams making them overachieving only to be shot when promoted too early to the majors.

    Ohtani chose the Angels when they had back to back losing seasons because he didnt want to go to teh East Coast and didnt want to play for a big market. All his talent and the team still won a regular season. I hope he now chose winning more than having a easy season and hope they make teh postseason.

    • @raikoafm702
      @raikoafm702 Před rokem +6

      The actual reason was because the Angels were one of the only teams willing to let him play both ways like he wanted. If he doesn't go back to the Angels I want to see him in Seattle or San Francisco tbh.

      The teams that Shohei did not go to was they didn't believe in him doing both at the same time. Now that he has shown that he can do it at the highest level, all those teams that doubted him now wants him. Shohei has options now compared to before where the Angels was the only team that let him do it. With how much Shohei wants to win and how bad the Angels are, the result is obvious. Shohei is leaving in FA.

      @@seekthao Yes go to a team like the Angels who haven't been over .500 even before Ohtani got their. Ohtani was too scared to handle NYC and the trash Angels who wasted two great talents as the Yanks have been way better than most franchises and the second most valuable team in the world. Only team Ohtani could handle( as I of course would have loved him) its Dodgers.
      If Ohtani would be a Yank he would be bigger than any other team he chose as Yankees are teh biggest team in Japan. He wants teh West coast and easy team to handle.
