you honestly think so? What about the August record? If Judge is so great, we would be expecting him carry to team even if a couple of guys were out due to injuries since they have such a stack roster.
@@khonhlo1476 you honestly think so? What about the August record to achieve 10-win and 10-homer since Babe ? If Ohtani is so great, we would be expecting him carry to baseball even if a couple of guys were out due to injuries since they have such a stack roster.
They are probably going to give the MVP to Judge, but that don't matter because ten years from now nobody will remember who won the MVP. But they will all remember what Ohtani did for the next hundred years.
Most people who think Arron Judge is the MVP says he is “playing” center field, but think about his contribution to Yankees, he has just a “ordinary” fielding or even worse. Ohtani pitches as an ace, no matter what team he play. As Pedro said, pitchers can’t do anything between the pitching, they need to rest their arm and body to prepare for the next start. Ohtani is hitting fantastic after he pitched, and still get no recess between the start. Don’t take Ohtani’s recovering ability for granted.
びっくりすることにカブスの3選手がこの件話してる動画があって、何があっても大谷さんがベストプレイヤーなのは間違いない、比較対象がいないから去年のショウヘイ vs 今年のショウヘイになるよね、トラウトみたいに毎年ハードルあがっちゃうよねって言いながら、ジャッジが62本打ったらMVPはジャッジになるだろうねって…。3人とも野手で恐らく投手の過酷さを知らなそうでした。投手や、よく対戦する西地区の選手、学生時代二刀流だった選手は分かってそうですけど、野手専門(大谷さん以外全員専門ですが笑)で、生で見たことないと現役選手でもピンと来ないみたいです…。
I watched two legendary pitchers in Japan (one was Daisuke Matsuzaka) talking how tired your body gets after pitching. One said you lose about 3kg in body weight after a game and it’s so tough to recover from it and condition yourself to get ready for the next pitch. They also asked each other question like, “ Do you even think about stealing bases when you are pitching? I can’t believe Shohei can run like that.” I mean, Ohtani not only is an ace pitcher for Angels, he hits, steals and he is also fantastic at fielding. I think pitchers can more appreciate what Ohtani is doing.
I am kind of new to baseball. But I don't understand why Angel being a weak team counts against Ohtani. It's definitely easier to perform well when you are on a good team. And is it easier to be the center fielder or the pitcher? It's a no brainer right? Would they be saying the same things if the teams are reversed... It's kind of a popularity contest so not that important in my view but some of these arguments just sound so non-sensical.
The truth of baseball probably has an answer opposite to that of the commentators. This is because when good hitters are at bat in a row, the pitcher cannot throw with all his might against just one hitter. Look at their monthly performance. Ohtani hit only five homers in July when Trout was absent, but he has already hit four this month.
Ohtani’s 2.55 ERA, but 8 losses speaks volumes that the Angels aren’t supporting him. It’s impressive that he has 12 wins. Something to consider, his unique MLB record, 12 wins and 30+ home runs.
I play volleyball and at the end of the day my arms feel like a limp stretch arm strong. What Ohtani is doing is beyond greatness. Pitching than hitting HR. There is no one like Ohtani
I’ve always loved Pedro but my respect for him is now through the roof. His opinion on Ohtani matters because he truly understands the demands on a MLB pitcher. Just wait for the final results to decide as they both have made such great impact on their respective teams. I still believe however that in the bigger picture of MLB that Ohtani has hands down been more important.
Unfortunately these idiots sitting next to him are the same as uneducated, unthinking RU-vid commenters who rely on platitudes like "Judge has been carrying the Yankees" and "the Angels are about the same without Ohtani." The voters will be the same way. Uneducated fools will think that Ohtani doesn't deserve MVP over Judge.
If the Yankees and Angels were to make a trade, the Yankees would not be able to acquire Otani in exchange for one Judge. It's an invisible achievement, but just having Ohtani on the team would open up one more roster spot by playing the dual role of pitcher and hitter. It's an obvious point, very big benefit for team
People don’t understand how incredible Ohtani is, it takes a lot out of you just by pitching alone, and on top of that, he still produces offensively, especially after the day he just pitched where his body is still recovering. He isn’t a robot
