Here is something to consider: Every 2 out, bases loaded strikeout that shohei Ohtani gets is equal to a HR robbery or diving catch in the outfield by Judge. Ohtani Strikes out 10 per game, Judge makes 1 or 2 great plays in outfield per game max. In fielding and defense alone, Shohei is worth 5X what Judge is.
Never cared for baseball until I saw Ohtani play, now I follow everything about him!!! Respect talent cause he’s the only one that can shut down the hitters and hit a hr to go with it!!!
till some of the best hitters in the world learn how to pitch on an elite top 10 level, no one can compete with Ohtani. still love the easy power of judge
How is this even a question? Ohtani by far. What judge has done has been done in the past. Ohtani has done what’s never been done and probably will be the only one to do so in the future. Closest one to Ohtani is Babe but that was a century ago back when baseball was a backyard league.
Ohtani is baseball at this point. Give me a break. There is no comparison here. We are watching something that has never and will never happen again with Ohtani. Not to mention he's abnormally attractive 😂
This is one of those hyped commentary topics that is also unfair to both players. Ohtani is one of a kind, not just in talent but also in his personality and presence on the field. To do both pitching and hitting at an elite level is an achievement no one else has had. He's also big-time in the marketing and fan appreciation categories--many fans for other teams and around the world follow Ohtani with great enthusiasm. Judge is a monster athlete and a big threat at the plate, plus he seems like a good guy. I think Ohtani deserved the MVP again last year. Fixating on HRs is absurd. Stanton hit 57 in 2018, and Judge surpassed that by five, one more than Maris hit. Are you really going to say that was a more noteworthy accomplishment than what Ohtani did as both a hitter and a pitcher? Who knows how much longer Ohtani will continue at this elite level or if he might even surpass what he's done already? But for the last two years, what he's done exceeds what anyone else has done in the sport in history.
Judge almost hit the triple crown too and almost led every single category, not just home runs. Ohtani is crazy good but he doesn't deserve to be MVP every season when Judge clearly had a greater impact on the offense of their respective teams
The pressure of 60 % of Japan watching your pitching vs Trout in WBC IS Way more than NYY crowd lol. Also Ohtani with his own NPB friends is like 200% more deadly. MLB Ohtani is mild.
To me the pitching side is a little gimmicky. Never 30 starts. Never 200 innings. 2 serious, season ending elbow injuries. 86 starts into now, 7 seasons. Averaging 12+ starts a year. He's a #3 in his best year, maybe a 2b
Why is this even a question? Louie T is on the money. I have been a Yankee fan since 1961, when the M & M boys were going for 61, and I have seen NO ONE do what Ohtani does.
The stronger you are, the longer you can wait, sit back, and see the ball. Like Bonds on roids, whose bat felt like a matchstick, and can wait a hundredth of a second more to see the ball before unleashing his power. It’s all about the bat speed afforded by your strength, natural or not.
no contest, ohtani any day. with ohtani, you're getting 2 players (hitter and pitcher) for the price of 1. its like the age old question, would you take pie or cake? hey, why not both?
One guy has Mvp seasons and makes the playoffs and one has Mvp seasons and his team isnt even 500. I'll take the guy who actually leads his team to the playoffs
Its funny seeing everyone in the comments pick ohtani when theres a bunch of videos showing judge hitting homers off of him and stealing one of Ohtanis lmao, would definitely choose ohtani just by a smidge still tho
Ohtani is the definition of whatever you do there is an asian doing it better than you yeah here ohtani is pitching like verlander and hitting like judge poor americansXD
STOP THE DISRESPECT PLEASE. THIS IS A NO BRAINER. 😂😂😂😂😂 JUDGE IS A BETTER HITTER BUT. THATS ALL JUDGE. STOP COMPARING PLEASE🤷🏻♂️ THIS MEDIA JUST DONT WANNA LOSE THEIR JOB. GOD BLESS AMERICA OFC😂
I think baseball is a terrible spectator sport. Its boring for someone like me who doesnt enjoy foul balls. However, i love watching ohtani highlights.
Looking at how big and strong Lebron is, I'm sure he could hit better and pitch better than Ohtani...oh wait, I thought we were making nonsense comments.
Time for Shohei to step it up and start beltin some hrs and not hittin punchin Judy singles he needs to drive the ball, someone tell him to take bp if he isn’t doing so he needs it, he’s gotta have a good 4 game series if not spectacular, he’s carrying a lot of responsibility for the teams losses too by not producing more with power , he def ain’t stepping up under this pressure cooker, superstars enthrall and step up when there supposed to imsad to say Judge outshined Ohtani
Taking Judge. He is Equally elite at 2 things just like What Ohtani is. Judge has been proven to be able to carry a team by him regardless of injuries to relevance ever with a WAR above 12. Ohtani hasn’t. Ohtani is A Great player.. Don’t get me twisted but Despite him pitching and hitting it just ain’t equaling wins. MLB, Japanese press, comment farms and Dummy accounts can try to push the narrative all they want… But until I see the Angels make the playoff or finish over .500. I’d start my franchise with Judge.
If they swapped teams last year, I would say judge’s angels would be worse records wise. Yankees just have so much more star power (angels really just trout and othani). Baseball unfortunately is a sport where it is hard for one to carry for wins. I would be interested where othani chooses to go in FA
@@adolka Good point.. I’ll counter that by saying. With all the star power the Yankees had. Injuries neutralized that last year and judge held them up long enough to keep the division. He would’ve been a triple crown winner had Arraez not sat the last few games. What’s even crazy is the Expanded strike judge gets to ensure he stays a mortal human.
when comparing player. you're comparing player. not teams. once you mention "once angels get .500" that's not comparing players no more. And it's not ohtani's fault that the team loses, just look at his ERA and win loss ratio, he would've won ever more if the closer ain't so bad. I still remember that game where ohtani scores was it 6 or 7 runs against KC, and angels still lost
@@adolka --Yankees, Dodgers or a contender. There is *NO WAY* Ohtani re-signs with the Angels in '24 even if they offered more $$$. That ain't happenin'. He's not making the same mistake Trout made. He'll sign for less with a contender. He's already stated that he wants to go to a contender of which the Angels clearly are not..
Name the Japanese Baseball Player who…. ~hit 5 Grand Slams in a season & threw a No-Hitter as a pitcher. ~held record for Most Hits in a Seasons for 40+ yrs, and had a career .760 win% and 2.40 ERA as a pitcher. ~ had a 30+ game Hitting Streak & won 40+ Games in a season as a pitcher.
You take Ohtani 100/100 times. He’s an elite pitcher and an elite hitter. Judge is an elite hitter. Ohtani is two players in one
Yea sir
yessir all day everydays
Here is something to consider: Every 2 out, bases loaded strikeout that shohei Ohtani gets is equal to a HR robbery or diving catch in the outfield by Judge.

Ohtani makes MLB more fun to watch period
True...I started watching baseball again because of Ohtani
Ohtani is the MLB at this point.
@@thedingoateyourbaby Agreed 👍
Never cared for baseball until I saw Ohtani play, now I follow everything about him!!! Respect talent cause he’s the only one that can shut down the hitters and hit a hr to go with it!!!
He is underrated or doesn't get enough credits because he is Japanese.
Theres no one in the MLB id pick before Ohtani. Not just Judge
As a yankee fan who loves judge id take ohtani all day
thank you from Japan
@@bestthemudafuckin why u thanking me, cause i picked a japanese player? Lol go have a nice warm glass of milk n take a nap dude
As a Mets fan i’d take ohtani in FA next year
I love Mets, but Ohtani belongs to Yankees.
I don’t mean to shit on Yankees fans, but I wish there was more like you
till some of the best hitters in the world learn how to pitch on an elite top 10 level, no one can compete with Ohtani. still love the easy power of judge

Ohtani is an even bigger legend in his own country
Rightfully so. He is a one in a billion athlete.
Ohtani everyday of the week, twice on Sunday.
No one loses when you get to see legendary players playing against each other.
Unless the loser is Aaron Judge. LOL
No contest! Ohtani!
No question?SHOW-TIME of course
As an Avenger fan, I'll take the Japanese kid over Spiderman and Superman
You can put your favorite team's whole dug out and I'd still pick Ohtani
Ohtani has the early leg up. 116mph bomb and Trout ran on Judge on a base hit.
Judge's throwing arm is not that great. That's why players can run on him.
Plus... Ohtani is hung like a horse.
Judge has an acute case of genital warts. Ohtani > Fudge Smudge
@@JohnSmith-nj4zq tell me your joking
No competition. Ohtani is a bigger impact on the sport.
No question - Ohtani of course!
The one and only Shohei Ohtani.
Ohtani is baseball at this point. Give me a break. There is no comparison here. We are watching something that has never and will never happen again with Ohtani.

This was a great video

Ohtani also didn’t make the playoffs
Judge will never hit 60 hrs again only 40 to 50hrs. Obtain can hit 35- 40hrs and pitch like Cole.
Judge is not even hitting many home runs this season. Ohtani has the lowest ERA. There is no comparison.
Ohtani's def much more than 210lbs now lol that was from years ago
He was 204 coming into the league. Hes around 210 now.
@@shinestar2912 no there’s a video on driveline and there was a board detailing players weight ranges and Ohtani was listed under 220-230 lbs
@@oxeye8891 that makes sense. I always figured that 210 seemed off
@@shinestar2912 we have eyes bro lol, he's definitely more than 210.
How did Ohtani not win the MVP last year?
Robbery
62 HR also impressive.
Ohtani san!
The pressure of 60 % of Japan watching your pitching vs Trout in WBC IS Way more than NYY crowd lol. Also Ohtani with his own NPB friends is like 200% more deadly. MLB Ohtani is mild.

As a person Judge is a very likable guy, but Ohtani is head and shoulders above anyone else in baseball.
Purely hitting, taking judge all day. As a player as a whole, have to take ohtani!
To me the pitching side is a little gimmicky. Never 30 starts. Never 200 innings. 2 serious, season ending elbow injuries. 86 starts into now, 7 seasons. Averaging 12+ starts a year. He's a #3 in his best year, maybe a 2b
Shohei hanpanai😮🦄🐏
Definitely more bang for the buck on Ohtani but why cant we have both?!?!
The hidden message is crazy
Ohtani for sure.
No one would judge on this fact.
People who came back to the game and are new to the game, come to watch one person. And it ain't to watch Judge.
Why is this even a question? Louie T is on the money. I have been a Yankee fan since 1961, when the M & M boys were going for 61, and I have seen NO ONE do what Ohtani does.
OHTANI💪💪💪

Ohtani is the only person I’d take before Judge
This is..... this..
but what if this. Can this become.
Judge until couple years ago. Since 3 years ago... Ohtani
DEFINITELY SHOHEI OTHANI PLUS ALL JAPANESE CHARACTERS❤
Right right ❤
Judge gonna look for signs
I don't think this is a debate, 2>1
Ohtani >
For this question to be asked is disrespectful.
no contest, ohtani any day. with ohtani, you're getting 2 players (hitter and pitcher) for the price of 1. its like the age old question, would you take pie or cake? hey, why not both?
Judge who? He is now becoming Jacoby v2.0
1 in a 150 year player vs a traditional slugger maybe a once in a decade talent ? No contest. Ohtani all day everyday and twice on Tuesday..
Baseball starts with pitching, Judge can’t pitch, elite pitcher > elite batter always. Ohtani all day and everyday and twice on a Sunday.
Ohtani is gonna be a Lionel messi type world athlete. Serena Williams type. Not just gppd but more like all time athlete. Get what I mean?
Who said pitchers cant hit ❤
One guy has Mvp seasons and makes the playoffs and one has Mvp seasons and his team isnt even 500. I'll take the guy who actually leads his team to the playoffs
Its funny seeing everyone in the comments pick ohtani when theres a bunch of videos showing judge hitting homers off of him and stealing one of Ohtanis lmao, would definitely choose ohtani just by a smidge still tho
JUDGE AINT SH*T TO OHTANI CMON MAN!
Unicorn all day… everyday.
Like saying... do you take Carmelo or MJ. 😂
Your comparison is trash. You clearly don’t watch baseball.
Ohtani is the definition of whatever you do there is an asian doing it better than you yeah here ohtani is pitching like verlander and hitting like judge poor americansXD
Ohtani all day every day no question. This is actually a daft question. Ohtani is the only pick.
I like Judge better as a fan but would take Ohtani every single day. Not that I hate ohtani tho
STOP THE DISRESPECT PLEASE. THIS IS A NO BRAINER. 😂😂😂😂😂

Too much “this”
“This” was excruciating to listen to. Lazy writing staff
Looking at how big and strong Judge is I’m sure he could easily throw in the high 90s and strikeout guys left and right only if the Yankees let him.
