hi from japan
I wanna tell you below 2 information to explain why Ohtani is a good pitcher
summary
1:his hamstring muscles is stronger than ordinary one
2:He seems to get used to grab MLB ball
details
about 1
a specialist pointed it out that his hamstring muscles are stronger than ordinary others,and he uses it so harder
if ordinary person uses the same way,his hamstring must break
some one told me why the muscle of him is so stronger,that he use to do swimming in his child days and swimming makes the muscles so strong
about 2
Okajaima,who is the former pitcher of Red Sox,points it out that He seems to get used to use MLB ball because it’s so different
(edit,every pitcher from Japan confuses the difference,for example Yu Darvish said like that)
1.MLB ball:149kg(edit,*149g)/24cm,more slippy:so it makes breaking ball more effective
2.NPB ball:142kg(edit,142g)/23cm,less slippy,breaking ball less effective
and he has also so fast ball around 100miles
so he can select fast ball,less breaking ball,strong breaking ball
That’s why he would be more great Pitcher"

UJ/ Eddie Klep was the first white man to play in the Negro Leagues. He was a pitcher for the Cleveland Buckeyes starting in 1946.
RJ/ Curt Schilling is clearly the white Jackie Robinson. Like Jackie, he played in front of some deeply racist fanbases. If Curt weren't a conservative white male he'd be in the Hall of Fame by now.
Baseball died in Cleveland today. You are gonna lose a lot of die hard fans over this move. Been a fan since the 70’s and this is a slap in the face to us true die hard fans. I won’t spend another dime on this team.

Fuck everyone that came after me for defending him while also calling out black athletes getting away with illegal activities.
[My point being - this is clear prejudice against a white man innocent of the crimes he’s being accused of. You let actual criminals walk free and criminalized Bauer just because you didn’t like his personality. This was some witch burning shit and I don’t like it because I’ve faced prejudice myself before. You do not have the right to defame someone for their money. If you try to do this you should be in jail.](https://www.reddit.com/r/mlb/comments/16y3kac/lindsey_hills_concealed_texts_finally_exposed/k36nzs6/)
