Not just best player on Padres but one of the best in all of baseball.

[@dylanhalll407]

@War Lord his dad hit 2 grandslams in one inning I think he’s a little better than solid

[@ri35x]

i'd never heard him speak before lol. I had no clue his english was that fluent. I don't watch much Padres ball so dont scrutinize me lol definitely will with this kid playing!

Excellent documentary. 10/10! Coming from a life long redsox fan i really miss Don Orsillo, nice to hear his voice again

El Niño is the best thing to ever happen to the game of baseball he made it electric and more exciting to watch and I got into baseball recently and he’s a big part of why and even though I’m not a Padres fan, unless they’re playing my team, I want them to win because of him

As a San Diego native & Padres fan, I can say I'm glad he's one of us. Tatis Jr. was meant to play this game. Not only will he be one of the greatest Padres to play the game, but he will go down as one of the greatest in MLB history!

[@glenpaul5663]

What a down to earth good human being!! At his age and being a true baseball player playing the game with his heart and soul the way it should be played, and not taking a knee or wearing a face diaper in this day and age.. this guy and Tony Gwynn are the two most most genuine human beings ever to play the game of baseball. Padre fan since 78 and until this day, to bad the city didn’t keep the Bolts their, my team one year longer until they moved to Shit L.A!! The hell with the Spanos family just keep the Padres in San Diego, love the energy and excitement in that ballpark.

As a Cubs fan, I’ve always been appreciative of people who came from your organization...Hoyer and Rizzo in most recent years...heck y’all even have Darvish and Caratini now! But Tatis Jr has captivated me as a baseball fan this season! Much luck to the Padres organization and bright future!

I am thankful to the padres and the sponsors (petco jackinthebox sycuan) for these awesome documentaries. Watched some of the paddack one, too, and cant wait to watch machados. I love this Tatis documentary so much im watching it again. Plus having the great Don Orsillo narrate? Padre fans are so spoiled😭🤎💛. Padres twt doesnt have many followers as other clubs but this yt channel is really good and has a sizable amount of subscribers for a baseball club. Thanks for the awesome content, Padres. You guys are the best and greatest always in the hearts of the Friar Faithful.

[@Krayzee_Bone]

Dodgers fan here, but love watching this kid play. Young players like him make this game exciting and he’s just a great guy overall. Wish nothing but the best for Tatis. Machado on the other hand...

[@Ktaurus26]

As a dodger fan I agree. He will eventually bring a title to San Diego

[@flow2528]

You have to give credits to A.J. Preller to take that risk, to give one of the best pitcher at the time, for this kid. That is the part of the game that, we as a fans don't see but is a chess game behind doors. Thank you for this excellent documentary, because it shows everything about Tatis jr, his family, believe, home town and most but not less important how he got there to MLB, all the hard work that he have to do.

[@ronsanto1079]

Actually Shields was having a terrible season before the trade and continued sucking after the trade. One of the most lopsided trades ever. They made up for the A.Rizzo to my Cubs for A.Cashner.
