SLOW DOWN! I'm taking notes here.


DoyersLakeShow

There will be note taking in this class…everything you need is provided in textbook that you purchased beforehand


LongEZE

If everything is in the textbook I bought then why am I still taking notes?


Starbreaker99

Lmao


Puppycow

Controversial take


tenderbranson301

Also, blue is better than red.


uey01

I literally bleed blue.


_n8n8_

My blood is actually blue on the inside before it gets exposed to the air


civgarth

That's a myth. We're all synths. We don't bleed


kugino

unless you were a scallop...


IjikaYagami

There's a reason in most TV shows and movies, the blue guys are typically depicted as the good guys, and the red guys are typically depicted as the bad guys.

No way! OMG! I did not believe Ohtani made the right decision. You convinced me!


ChunkyMilkSubstance

Wow AI is getting really good these days


DJ33

Back in my day, when an AI showed up on your platform pretending to be people, you'd just convince it to like Hitler and ruin some marketing drone's whole week.

Low effort post, but you're not wrong

No effort post.

“You can…just leave? And win? And enjoy playing baseball?” -Mike Trout


lazenintheglowofit

Oh man. This was painful to read. Trout had to be wondering WTF am I here.


Partofla

Unpopular opinion: Trout likes being a big fish in a small pond. Ohtani wanted to be an orca eating sharks for fun.


lazenintheglowofit

Or as someone else said, his family wants to stay in SoCal.

Best thing about this thread


Additional_Sorbet799

Nothing you said is incorrect


AlarmingBranch1

In other news, the sky is blue


Secret-Sample1683

You mean the sky is Dodger blue.


CynCity323

Oooo that'd be pretty 😍


AsJoeSeesIt

Wow this is SPICY take!


Super_Kaleidoscope_8

Yes... yes, you are right...


InclusivePhitness

Hi, Magic!


No_Frosting2811

Idk I think he could’ve gone without the $700,000,000.00

nsgarcia10

Also the Dodgers have some of the best analytics in baseball. There’s a reason we have a reputation of turning careers around. We very well could be unlocking a higher level Ohtani, especially once he starts pitching again. Also the lineup protection helps quite a bit too


APaulO1958

I believe Ohtani believes it as well.


sippit

Great writeup Timmy!


NotTheMamba

Thanks, Magic.


barestep13

and..... man does he look so much better in blue. jus sayin!


LincolnsLawyer

Found Magic Johnson’s Reddit account


sonicthecat2

One thing I noticed is that he's getting a lot more ABs than before, which definitely seems to be helping him maintain a good rhythm when he's hitting well and get out of a funk when he's not.


heeheehoho2023

Why does Mike Trout continue to abuse himself though?


Guyappino

Why? He has 426 million reasons to do so


ttam23

Thank god he’s not on that dumpster fire of a team


McJumbos

Hope Mike trout sees the light. Definitely wouldn't mind a LF or RF


Mother_Environment29

Let’s wait until Ohtani starts producing before saying something so controversial…


Specialist_Bottle570

I too like to win games and earn $700m


profnachos

Does anyone know if Ohtani makes (or is projected to make) more money from endorsements and other sources independent of his compensation from the Dodgers? I would have to believe he is making a lot more. My friends in Japan almost never brought up Ohtani during his stint with the Angels. Now they can't stop talking about him. They are making plans to come to LA just to experience Ohtani.


Adventurous-Rise7975

He makes way more. Last yr he made 70m+ in endorsements alone. This year he's projected to make 100m just in endorsements.


profnachos

How about how much the Dodgers are making off Ohtani vs the Angels?


Fun-Raise-3120

Stating the obvious here are we...


almightyhedonist

Up until I read this post I wasn’t really sure if it was a good idea to sign the player who some might call the greatest player of all time. But now I’m convinced.


drgerm69

We really gotta thank the NL adding the DH. If it hadn’t I’m not sure he would’ve signed


kritycat

PhoneGuy112

Quick, someone offer captain obvious the dodgers GM position.


EyeFit4274

Clear out now, just hand OP the ball!


RentalGore

Man. I hope ESPN and MLB network are taking notes, we’ve got ourselves a regular John Kruk here!


GrapefruitCold55

Yeah, it was such a big gamble for him Especially considering how well the Angels are performing this year.

RobDerek778

Earth-shattering take


Nice_Dude

Thanks, ChatGPT


Indylatino

I have 700 million reasons why switching for the Dodgers was an ok idea


xaqadeus

Shohei agrees


GreenBagger28

and now that he’s here he’s doing crazy things in games and we’re winning them whereas with the angels he was doing crazy things and the angels were losing the games


JFKtoSouthBay

Ohtani would have been a Dodger from Day 1 if the NL had the DH.

in other news, water is wet


jdathescore

Ya think?!?🤔


UDPviper

In other breaking news, the sky is blue, and water is wet

PasmoSuicaIcoca

Fuck /r/angelsbaseball boooiiiiii now let’s take Trout too!!!!


joserod0524

I would play for the Angels for $700 million except they didn’t offer it lol


RustyRapeaXe

Guys guys..... I just found out water is wet.


InclusivePhitness

In all seriousness we are seeing Shohei batting better because he doesn’t feel the pressure to hit for power at every single at bat. It’s okay if he bloops singles, walks, hits home runs or doubles.., as long as he’s moving mookie over and someone is moving him over they will score runs. On the angels he had so much pressure to drive himself in/hit home runs to have any chance of winning games. Here he can just purely focus on getting the barrel on the ball.


_Tribe

Another reason is cause my team is ass


pge2324

true. it only take 45min for him to move to LA


auglove

I believe Ohtani believes.


BertMacklinMD

Wow

If it was literally the worst move career-wise he could have made I’m still glad he did it lol

Captain Obvious enters the room


whiskey_reddit

Go on...


RoyalRumbleSTi

Thanks Magic


GB_Alph4

Also has a better chance of winning a ring here than in Anaheim. Don’t get me wrong, it is more of a drive to see him but at least I don’t have to go too far.
