MLB 2024 Season

[Uncle Rico]

Never a doubt!

Tough break for certain Brewer fans

[WhiteTrash]

White Sox hire a guy without baseball experience to overhaul the organization.  That makes sense.

Ohtani at 48 / 49.  Getting closer, but not a lot of games left to get the 2 HRs.

He's got like 12 games and most of them are Vs Miami and Colorado ahha

He's got plenty of games

Miami and Colorado? 60/60 is in play.

[PGsHeroes32]

50th steal

Just needs the homers now

[PGsHeroes32]

Yeah he's got time. This guy is incredible

Homer number 49 and 51 steals

4/4 with 2 doubles a homer, 2 steals and 5 RBI. Its the 6th inning.

For those who know more about baseball than me (which is about everyone here). Should Ohtani just focus on being a hitter, and not pitch?

[PGsHeroes32]

Holy SH IT

There it is. 50/50 season

5/5 2 homers 2 doubles 2 steals 7 RBI

Unbelievable

[PGsHeroes32]

Emphatic yes

Look at his hitting last year as a pitcher.

Guy can rake and pitch. We will never see anything like this in sports again

[MUBBau]

51-51

[PGsHeroes32]

6/6 3 homers and 10 RBI haha.

[Shaka Shart]

6/6 3 homers and 10 RBI haha.

is that good

[tower912]

Appreciate greatness.

[StillAWarrior]

51-51

The Dodgers have nine more games. Obviously he's not going to have another game like last night, but it'd be fun to have a 55/55 watch down the stretch.

[MU82]

Ohtani is so talented it's ridiculous. He actually might be underpaid!

And his manager has even left open the door that Ohtani could pitch a little in the postseason.

[MUBurrow]

For those who know more about baseball than me (which is about everyone here). Should Ohtani just focus on being a hitter, and not pitch?

At a minimum he should probably stop focusing on starting.  He would still be an insanely valuable commodity out of the pen or as a closer, and it would reduce his wear and tear and injury risk.  His fastball tops out in the triple digits, and as a reliever he could easily just throw four seamers, cutters, and splitters and basically take arm injuries from breaking balls off the table.  He's so good that if he thinks he needs another pitch, he could probably learn an average changeup if he's so inclined.

[PGsHeroes32]

Probably the craziest Ohtani stat this year

Hes 51/55 on steals. Thats just insane. 93%. And he steals 3rd frequently enough too.

Take De La Cruz, yeah hes got 13 more steals. Hes also been caught 4 times as much. 80%

[Spotcheck Billy]

Poor reporting by ESPN. This reports a lot more than 2 have done that.

Ohtani is the second player since at least 1901 with six hits in a game

[cheebs09]

Poor reporting by ESPN. This reports a lot more than 2 have done that.

I was at the Shawn Green game. We weren't sure if we wanted to see a cycle or a 4th homer on his last at bat. We got the homer.

Not the glory days of the Brew Crew.

I read somewhere earlier this year that agents are generally thrilled with their clients are drafted by the Brewers because they know the organization is going to work hard to get the best out of them.

So somewhere, sometime, you read something that suggested the Brewer organization works hard.

LOL.

You are trying too hard.

More keen insight from the hyperbolist! Thanks!!
