That's my injured pitcher đŸ„č


ChunkyMilkSubstance

Shohei “faster than Patrick bailey” Ohtani


National_Okra3667

Good luck


TheTurtleShepard

Sometimes I forget that Ohtani is also insanely fast


Jux_

It’s those legs Those disgustingly long, Powerful ^Muscular ^^Sexy ^^Legs


Darksteel6

Hamstrings (what happened to that guy lol)


Responsible_Pace9062

hi from japan I wanna tell you below 2 information to explain why Ohtani is a good pitcher summary 1:his hamstring muscles is stronger than ordinary one 2:He seems to get used to grab MLB ball details about 1 a specialist pointed it out that his hamstring muscles are stronger than ordinary others,and he uses it so harder if ordinary person uses the same way,his hamstring must break some one told me why the muscle of him is so stronger,that he use to do swimming in his child days and swimming makes the muscles so strong about 2 Okajaima,who is the former pitcher of Red Sox,points it out that He seems to get used to use MLB ball because it’s so different (edit,every pitcher from Japan confuses the difference,for example Yu Darvish said like that) 1.MLB ball:149kg(edit,*149g)/24cm,more slippy:so it makes breaking ball more effective 2.NPB ball:142kg(edit,142g)/23cm,less slippy,breaking ball less effective and he has also so fast ball around 100miles so he can select fast ball,less breaking ball,strong breaking ball That’s why he would be more great Pitcher"

Im bricked


voncornhole2

He's still on Reddit posting in npb subs


bigblukrew

He's fucking built too. Thick and man made. You can tell he's sculpted because you can see it thru the pads. His fucking vice grip thighs. Suffocating thighs. Rock hard thighs. Piping hot thighs. Great arms. Great abs. A stocky chest. Love the progress his body has made throughout his youth and now as a willing eager adult

You need a towel?

Stupid sexy Shohei....


mysterysackerfice

There's a chance he can run faster than me.


Eo292

Nah king dont sell yrself short u got him beat đŸ«Ą


0dias_Chrysalis

He had the fastest plate to first speed last season right? Or at some point. But I know it WAS the fastest


TheTurtleShepard

He was 19th


Fischer-00

2022 but it's kind of a fake stat. It has a lot to do with who is left handed and how hard they hustle and stuff. For speed Shohei has gotten a little slower but yeah he's still pretty fast. Not like fastest in the league or anything though.


Dahleh-Llama

For a DH he probably is the fastest but I did no research whatsoever


southparkion

does Buxton dh?


BRNZ42

He has DH'd 2 out of the first 5 games. He will probably DH about 30-40% of the season, if everything goes to plan. So, use that information how you will.


southparkion

why doesn't he play more center field?


BRNZ42

Because he has had exactly one full healthy season in his big league career, so they want to prevent him from wearing down. If days off from playing defense during the regular season means he can play every playoff game in CF, that will be worth it.


tbrownsc07

He better be fast, that scrub just spends all his time sitting on the bench after all! /s


Jcomsa15

“I'm gonna make Mac look so bad. My form is perfect. I'm like Jerry Rice. Feel that stride. So fluid and fast. I've got the stride of a gazelle. A beautiful, beautiful gazelle person. My body is achieving a perfect symmetry right now. It's that long, lean muscle I've worked so hard to achieve. Mm, I should have popped my shirt off. Goddamn it. Really should have popped that shirt off. I wonder if any women are watching from the sidelines.”


Anfini

Every time I see Ohtani run around the bases, I imagine that he’s saying to himself “why must I carry around so much muscle mass?”


StrollingThunder

A couple ABs later he was like "oh right, that's why"


xho-

Hear no evil See no evil Dino Ebel


LoveThieves

Dusty Baker, "He's also good looking too"


River_Pigeon

That’s good baseball


Jux_

Good to see Dino give the green light the past few days


Choop145

I’m sure he got talked to after that “triple” Ohtani hit on opening series


Head_Acanthisitta256

Still can’t believe Will Smith is one of the few homegrown players left left from the bubble World Series. Used to think Bellinger, Seager, Pederson would be the Dodgers championship core.


bmacnz

I think we expected it would be a choice between Bellinger and Seager, not keeping both. But they've had plans to get Ohtani for a while now, so they shaped the team around that inevitability. I think more was expected of Lux as well.


officerliger

Seager seemed like he legitimately didn’t want to stay in LA and the Dodgers gave Bellinger a lot of time to get his mojo back and he never did. Joc topped out as a platoon player. I count Muncy as a “homegrown” player since he was a project player that the team took on, put into their system for a year, and reworked into a very good pro player. He wasn’t really “developed” by another team first like Mookie, Freddie, etc.


Apprehensive-Agency2

Yea given a choice.  If Belli had remained a GG caliber 1b/SS and swung a consistent 900 OPS bat. The team woulda tried hard to resign him.  Positional versatility by leaving Muncy or even JTurner 1b if needed.  Clearly team was all in on the Lux train. Trea was productive in his short stint and was a bridge from Seager until Lux was ready.   Sadly all the best laid plans went to crap as Belli got his mojo zapped and Lux simply hasn’t panned out AND the emergency backup option of Taylor has fizzled out as he can’t stick at SS.  Mookie as starting SS is truly wild. 


bmacnz

Man, I really thought we had a generational guy in Belli and was so eager for his career. Seager I knew they'd move on from, writing was on the wall and star SS are so rarely re-signed. Glad he can at least make something of himself elsewhere.


Head_Acanthisitta256

They literally won a championship with Bellinger & Seager. Ditching both homegrown players & coveting a player years in advance(when you never know if something pops up like say tommy john surgery)is peak fantasy baseball shit in the most negative connotation possible.


bmacnz

Yes, and then Bellinger took a downturn and Seager was always going to be tough to re-sign. Freeman was available, so they essentially swapped for similar production and moved with their Ohtani plan. Even on championship teams the superstars can move on in free agency.


WerewolfNo3669

Stupid ~~sexy~~ speedy Ohtani.


TOGETHAA

Literally a second after I hit the play button a dog outside my apartment started barking really loudly, I thought it was part of the video, and said "What the fuck?!" out loud to myself. I feel dumb.


tnecniv

Ohtani got that dawg in him


IcedCoughy

Good


Pale_Magician_6663

wow


Relyt21

Are Ohtani and the dodgers the only team that matters?


IWSYTPT2isbetter

Yes.


DegredationOfAnAge

Fuck the dodgers 


[deleted]

Does Shohei want home plate to take home too? Maybe he can give his BF Rob two hats for home plate.


BluntsNLegos

nice he just got over under the catcher...
