    He will do it just to say that he did.

    Best player in baseball.  As well as Lindor is playing, Ohtani is still better hands down.

    matt chapman gets an extension. he’s been the giants best position player (low bar) but this feels like evan longoria part II, to me.

    oh well. I wouldn’t have been happy if he’d left, either.

    snell extension? not seeing that.

    goddammit! sox have two series left with the angels and one with oakland. they just might avoid ignominy. :angry:

    BTW, tempo - I just noticed your halos are looking up at oakland. what a franchise….they lose ohtani and are stuck with rendon….I saw a stat….they’ve used 27 third basemen since signing rendon. what’s he got left? like 3 years at $38m/ per?

    Looking at Oakland how? To do things on the cheap?

    Rendon has been the worst signing EVER!!!  They need a better farm system...

    There's your first 50/50 guy.
    And what a way to do it.
    6 for 6, 3 HR, 4 runs scored, 10 RBI, 2 SB
    This weekend we rock Portland
  • That might be the most impressive stat line a hitter has put up in a long, long, time. 
    Imagine if he threw in the same game?
    This dude is unreal.

    It's a hopeless situation...

    50/50 is killer.  The Marlins though are not...  They used a position player to pitch in one of those HR's. Yeesh.
    Kudos to Marlins manager Schumaker for actually pitching to him.
    More Kudos to the fan whom left w that 50th HR ball and didn't give it back to Ohtani.  Good on you.  I understand they wouldn't authenticate the ball for them since they wouldn't trade it w Ohtani.  They now have a life changing ball that should fetch 2million is my prediction.

    I can't wait for more on that story to come out!

    That was HR no 51, so no taint on the 50/50

    There is a certain main character syndrome with Giants/Bonds fans. Can't leave him out of the conversation!

    And this is coming from someone who believes Bonds is the greatest hitter of all time. But at this point Ohtani is the greatest baseball player any of us will ever see.
  • igotid88igotid88 Posts: 27,929
    Ohtani most likely doesn't have 50 steals if he was pitching this season

    blake snell is going to get seriously paid. I hate that my giants had to give him an opt out in order to sign him. you’d think two years at $31M per would be enough, but no.

    snell only made 6 starts through the end of june, due to not being ready, a stint or two on the IL and paternity leave. he didn’t win a game until august, but since july (his last 14 starts) he’s been the best pitcher in baseball.
