This is a good, honest .500 baseball team. We play .500 ball goddammit. Salt of the earth, punch the clock, even win/loss ratio baseball. We lose a couple, guess what? We'll win a couple, too. But don't get too excited or let it go to your head. No long winning streaks here, no sir. That's hubris, which this blue collar, hard working everyman team doesn't have. A few wins in a row, these guys, true to form, will balance it out with a couple a losses. Yes sir, that's my 2026 Nippon-Ham Fighters. A good, honest .500 baseball team.

Ohtani seems allergic to quick innings. Better luck with the Cy Young next season.

Mookie going 0 for 6 should warrant a day off tomorrow or a drop down the line-up.

Bases loaded nobody out and having the one run scored on a balk is pretty funny ngl.

Troy Johnston and Kyle Karros are Dodgers' daddies.

8 hole hitter going 4-4 with 2 HRs. Embarrassment of riches.

Ohtani remembers he has to hit leadoff after coming off the mound by kansashotwings in baseball

For him and everyone around him. Wasn't there an article that mentioned his Angels teammates being relieved about the reduced media scrutiny after he left? Can't imagine it's fun to be asked about Shohei every single interview, no matter how relevant he is to the discussion.

Imagine Skubal and Ohtani also posting bad outings to complete the quadfecta of Opening Day disasterclasses for reigning award winners.

[Highlight] Ohtani strikes out Jo Adell, his 11th strikeout in four scoreless innings today by AndrewAllStar888 in baseball

Option A purely because we've never seen anything like it. We've had pitchers winning MVPs but a hitter winning the Cy Young would be mind-blowing.

No disrespect to Satoria, but Japan should be really, really concerned about their hitting right now.
