Not being talked about too much nationally. But in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton, what happens with the Trop? Will the roof be repaired for 2025 or will the Rays opt just to wait for the new ballpark to open? If the meantime, where do they play their home games? One possibility is Raymond James Stadium. But it doesn't appear as though the dimensions could be reconfigured for baseball. Which means that the team could very well play its home games at the Yankees spring training complex of Steinbrenner Field. Which would mean you would have two MLB franchises (Rays and A's) temporarily playing their home games at minor league parks. Not a good look for MLB, but it may very well be unavoidable.
if I was a manager …I’d pick ohtani in my lineup over judge …San Diego madres were a tougher team to beat this season…& ohtani delivered a homer to bring dodgers back into that game …in ohtani’s first post-season …he has already accomplished more with greater inspiration to his new ball club than judge has done in multiple post seasons …& ohtani completed a historical season while recovering from arm surgery while playing injured during World Series …so next year ohtani will be pitching in post season …his next goal will be to achieve post season MVP
It's just a gamble really to wait until hes 25 and pray he doesn't get hurt and have tommy john. But even so even if he were to get injured before 25 im sure some teams would take a chance on him given how young he still is.
Agree on Ohtani over Judge for 2 reasons: historical context (in first ever 50-50 season) and post-season performance. Shohei did NOT play that well in postseason, but the numbers are respectable, and he did put on a show here and there; this is only his first postseason; and he was hurt in the final series; and they win. On the other hand, Judge is totally lost in hitting and he is responsible for that drop which started the meltdown ...
You’re forgetting that Sasaki wanted to post last year but team told him one more year. They still dont have to but put of honor of their own words, they still may. Doesn’t mean Dodgers can’t work out a deal.
Ohtani 24/7. Not only can he hit, run & pitch. He sells tickets & helps his team by differing that crazy contract. Judge is slow, dude literally dropped the ball on the biggest stage.
There have been talks from “Japanese fans” in Dodgers fan forum who do not like Sasaki for a couple of reasons. 1) his mental attitude, he’s not on the same level as Ohtani or Yamamoto, known as a player with bad attitude, I recalled him calling him a brat, which is very negative coming from a Japanese, I think his reputation is not that good as he’s constantly trying to leave the NPB, making him look selfish and arrogant. Another comment was his mentality, he’s not that mentally strong so he might breakdown or meltdown in the MLB, 2) physical condition, he’s injury prone and presently injured. But that will be fixed if he comes to the Dodgers by Dr Altrache. Personally I would want him to come to the Dodgers as opposed to facing him if he signed with by the Padres, Mets or Cubs, who also have Japanese players…..
I believe that the NY Mets are strongly in play for Burnes because David Stearns had a working relationship with him when they were both with the Brewers.
He don't care winning soto only want highest bidder 😂 but if he want beat ohtani contract he need to beat ohtani's 50/50 So that worth it in his contract
WHAT IS A TOP 5 OFFSEASON STORYLINE TO YOU?

Agree and agree.
A big YES to Shohei Ohtani being awarded the one total MVP of MLB 2024!

GOOD STUFF BUDDY
Shohei Ohtani is the best.

That was also a fake last year.

Hope dodgers get roki.
Don't think he will come over yet
Ben after the Wild Card series you said the Astros were no longer inevitable... So now they are?
Othani for MVP!

ohtani is the first DH MVP 😂😂 only ohtani can make
Ohtani also brings team Japan to your team. No comparison. Ohtani worth 1B. Sorry error judge.
I showed this video to my grandmother and now she wants to be a blogger too😻
Where you think Burnes sign?
Good question. Think there's a good chance he signs back in Baltimore. But we shall see
@ ok
I believe that the NY Mets are strongly in play for Burnes because David Stearns had a working relationship with him when they were both with the Brewers.
Im guessing Giants or Cubs
It's Nippon-Ham/ FIGHTERS,
not Nippon/ HAM-Fighters.
Not much of a problem!
@@YK-he7jc It does, because they hate being called the Hamfighters.
He don't care winning soto only want highest bidder 😂 but if he want beat ohtani contract he need to beat ohtani's 50/50 So that worth it in his contract
Can someone give me a TLDW
Oh Cole. That was bad.
