I like that he's choosing his spots.

Before, everything was a home run swing and it was just hot and cold. Being on a winning team is definitely forcing him to evolve. I love home runs, but the highs/lows were tough on the angels.

Agreed, I'd trade a few big flies for a batting title.

Maybe he can pick up the pace this summer and do 50/50.

Still on pace for 200+ hits and 402 TB. Some HRs will bump that TB pace back up.

I don't like the dirty sanchez. Homie is typically well-shaven. Esp when meeting Cameron!

Drove through LCF, twice a day, every day for ten plus years. Great area and I always enjoyed the Black Cow in Montrose.

I like the 2023 TC Platinum Ohtani aesthetics. I even like that they have an inaccurate facsimile auto (old good auto). I don't like the weird refractor parallels. On the fence whether I'm doing this one.

Nm, not doing it. Speckle, sparkle, and toile. I can't.

Super modest place for a guy with Ohtani’s dough. I think it’s outstanding that he really isn’t a flashy guy. Such a contrast to many high profile US athletes.

BTW if you think a $8million dollar home is spendy in So Cal, think again. Average home price is over $900k. I live in an old suburb of LA with almost all housing stock being over 50 years old. $900k currently gets you 2-3bd, 1ba, 1000 sq ft, and dated in this suburb. You have to go out at least 25-30 miles to the east or north or downtown LA before $900k gets you anything bigger/better in that “average” price range.

This article is like a week old, but I just read it! Had no idea that his fWAR pace is ahead of his last 3 years! Incredible!
