So will he pitch or hit?
why can't it be both?
Posted on 12/8/17 at 1:13 pm to CRDNLSCHMCPSN11
Pitch 1 day a week and hit 3 other

So they are actually letting him play in the field?

He's going to do both

It will be interesting to see him get a chance at doing both.

Nothing announced but I assume at least one day a week to let Pujols DH

One of the analysts I heard talking about Ohtani said that he's going to have play in the field some to get the full amount of value out of him that he brings. The argument being that he won't really hit enough to bring value as a DH-only.

What are they projecting him for? I've seen some wild numbers so far

I didn't see projections on HRs.

.240/12/45/.330/.420
3.6/1.26/180k
That would be my guess for him. Let's see how he does next season.

My guess is he ends up at pitcher full time. There seems to be a more favorable transition for Japanese pitchers than hitters. How many of Japan's great hitters have come over to the states and not matched the hype or production?

I just became a huge Giancarlo Stanton fan

#STLCards announce they are out on Stanton. Couldn’t get him to waive his no-trade. Moving on.
