Dude just dropped a 40/40 season. And is one of the most dominant pitchers in the league. The guy is a real life video game player.


50/50 *

Have you never heard of the Sultan of Swat? The Colossus of Clout? The Great Bambino?

Last yr Ohtani pitched a 1 hit CG shutout. Then on the doubleheader hit 2 HRs. He can do it all.

Once he eclipses Ruth’s HR record, then I’ll say yes

Strange fact, no 40/40 player is in the hall of fame

He's the only player in history who could realistically win the Cy Young and lead the league in HRs in the same season.

Babe was a Hall of Fame level pitcher. Still 17 on lowest ERA....4th lowest lefty. Best hitter ever.
