I wonder if maybe this Tommy John year is a blessing in disguise for Ohtani? I mean...if he keeps hitting like this he could become a full-time DH a la Edgar Martinez, Nelson Cruz, etc. The guy could hit 35 HR and knock in 100 runs as a hitter.
Ehire with double. Can't believe I'm saying this but he's coming around as he gets more playing time. His average should get back to .250-.260 and we should all be OK with that.
Can't wait to get Cruz back....one would have to think that both he and Sano will be starting in Seattle tomorrow night. Polanco DH-ing today, how about that? Here's keeping our fingers crossed for another good start from Odorizzi. The Angels look like they've got a pretty nice squad. Ohtani has been just killing the Twins so far when he's in the batters box.
He's by the New Era cap store man! Waiting for you! This is live drama here we're watching unfold. Will the dude get his beer? Or will the star-crossed buddies miss each other in the night? Stay tuned!
