what happens if Ohtani hits 60/60, does that reduce the value of the 50/50 ball significantly to much less than 300k?

Great analysis and unbiased perspective. Too bad theres people who would rather listen to hot garbage because they can’t appreciate a player or a team for their achievements. Analysis like Stephen Arse Simp and Rob the joke Parker

I think there is like a 3-5% chance Ohtani gets to 60/60

When Ben read the question asking why there’s no 100 win team this season I was going to give the same exact answer. The new schedule has crazy travel now. They used to play way more in their own geographic area. The Dodgers going to Atlanta, then Miami and then all the way back to LA ain’t no joke. That’s an example of crazy travel. LA is lucky to have Shohei because the Rockies would’ve made that series much closer after all that travel.

They have to prove they can win in October. But the team that a lot of people are overlooking to make a deep run is the Cleveland Guardians. The biggest advantage the Guardians have is that they have the ability to condense the game because of a lockdown bullpen that is led by closer Emmanuel Clase, who has been close to perfect.

I had the Phillies and Orioles at first too. It’s always a crap shoot at the beginning of the season to make a prediction. Lol. None of us really know. I feel like we will have a Guardians/Padres World Series. Both of those teams should not be as good as they have been consistently all season. Especially the Padres who have the best record in MLB since the break. I think the Madres get their first World Series win and that sucks for me as a Dodger fan. It would be story book to see Shohei get that hardware his first season as a Dodger. If MLB is fixed then I hope they realize that would be the best way to set it up. Lol

50/50 is historic. 60/60 would be otherworldly. Cannot believe the regular season is coming to an end. Wouldn’t that be amazing if the Tigers and Mariners got the second and third wildcards? Just a few weeks ago, the Royals and Twins were battling the Guardians for the division lead. The way it looks now one or both of them may miss the playoffs altogether. Think we could state definitively, especially in the way this season started out, when it comes to the AL West, the Houston Astros are inevitable.
