    When you get mentioned on tv along with Babe Ruth and Nolan Ryan, you're doing something right.

    Being terrible at both drafting and Latin American free agents will do that.

    Ohtani's a grown ass man and he looks like he's 14 years old.

    And bad contracts - like Albert Pujols, Josh Hamilton, Zack Cozart, Anthony Rendon, etc.

    The shift works until it doesn’t.

    Is Ohtani pitching another inning? Need him off the mound so we can get stuck into their relievers

    Why you would shift against a guy like Ohtani who hits to all fields, and then pitch him outside, is ****ing mindboggling.

    I've said this quite recently.

    There was an article a couple of weeks ago. They said Angels are screwed. Probably would have to cave into his demands and sign him because they can't afford to lose him. But the minute they do, any chance of winning is gone because too much put into him.

    Pitching outside to three lefties while shifted and giving up three ground-ball hits is mind-boggling

    If the Stros played traditional defense this inning, it's 3-up-3-down.

    What's the record for most errors by a rookie????
    Or did they give the batter a hit?
