Like fine wine...haha
Ohtani is pretty dam incredible, but the Angels have a bad track record with arms, diagnosis and treatment.
I hope they let him bat the rest of the year since he's out all next year for Tommy John anyways and maybe once he's healed a little better mid to end of next year he can bat before he's ready to pitch. Batting obviously doesn't affect his elbow, he's been smashing it.
What do you think about ROTY chances if he continues to smash and ends with a 4-2, 3.31 ERA and 1.16 WHIP?
ZERO other rookies in the league can claim that. There might be some pitchers in the NL that have to bat and aren't too bad, but they're nowhere near what Ohtani is doing.
The two rookie on the Yankees are killing it, but neither can claim 4 wins pitching.
