A well-known sports commentator spoke passionately about Ohtani for about four minutes.
Shohei Ohtani of the Angels is worth $700 million!
Ohtani, who has pitched to seven wins and hit 32 home runs in the first half of the season, will be a free agent this offseason, and the debate over his next contract is heating up. A well-known sports commentator said that Otani is a “once-in-a-century player” and that he is worth the enormous amount of money he will be paid.
Colin Coward was the one who praised Otani. On his program “The Herd with Colin Cowherd” on the U.S. broadcaster FOX Sports, Cowherd spoke enthusiastically about Ohtani for four minutes, comparing him to other great MLB players of the past and present.
There are a lot of great players,” he said. （There are a lot of great players,” he said, “Trout and Betts are great. But Ohtani is beyond that,” Coward said. In addition, he cited Sandy Koufax (Dodgers), the three-time winningest left fielder in baseball, and Nolan Ryan (Astros and others), who has 324 wins. Consider if you asked the two of them to hit for you. Ryan’s batting average is about .101. It would be embarrassing if he hit. And if you asked Trout or Betts, ‘Please pitch tomorrow,’ they wouldn’t be ready at all,” he said, emphasizing how difficult it is to play both pitching and hitting on the MLB stage.
He added, “Ohtani would have started in the All-Star Game if he didn’t have blisters on his fingers. ‘He hits home runs with a distance of 600 feet (183 meters). He’s an All-Star starting pitcher. He’s like a magician, a juggler, an acrobat.
He is like a magician, a juggler, and an acrobat. He is a once-in-a-century player. Owners don’t want you to know how much they make, but they might pay $700 million for the most mythical player since Babe Ruth,” he concluded.
Ohtani continues to surprise even experts with knowledge of the sport. It will be interesting to see what kind of off-the-charts numbers he comes up with in his next contract.
