MLB Tonight on Shohei Ohtani finishes historic season as Dodgers wrap it up with 2-1 win vs Rockies

[@surfwriter8461]

I'm a big Ohtani fan but I consider this talk very irresponsible--reckless speculation and pushing for Shohei to pitch in the playoffs as a reliever. I know he'd love to be pitching, and all of us would love to see it. But it's totally wrong to put him in such a high intensity playoff situation when he's had NO game experience on the mound even in a minor league game for a year. Protect the guy. He's got years ahead of him to pitch for the Dodgers. Don't risk his arm by putting him into such a high leverage game when all he's done is throw bullpen sessions as he rehabs his arm. I think this decision is not his alone, either. He will respect the view of his doctor, the manager and the management. His doctor has already said he doesn't think it's wise for Ohtani to enter a playoff game on the mound yet.

[@Phoenix-ji7dy]

Great points you've made. I totally agree with you.

[@太郎福岡-k5n]

Yeah 100%. I hope the team knows better than to force ohtani to pitch this year.

[@andiepantss6838]

Save him for the world series don't waste him in games that don't need him

[@arminoleg1624]

What’s crazy is he’s a star pitcher who hits as good as anybody in baseball. Hes got the average, he’s got the HR’s he’s got the RBI’s and now he decides he’s gonna set records in base stealing. Wild work

[@HoangNguyen-kr8nb]

Othani already won the world series. He's going for the national championship.

[@venomsymbiote34]

I’ll come out in relief from the toilet

[@trevor8307]

I’m actually glad he didn’t make 60-60 or 55-55. There needs to be something for future generations to strive for! 😆

[@taka0359]

54-54は現実的な目標にできる数字ではないと思うけどね。

[@trevor8307]

⁠@@taka0359 I didn’t say it would be realistic, I said it’s something they could strive for.

[@ぎむにいBigbrogimu]

maybe 54-54 is already untouchable record.

[@rickdeckard9810]

Ohtani hasn't pitched all season and you wanna throw him in the most important games and risk him getting injured again? Dodgers have too many injuries if they win the NL Championship it'll be a win.
