Shohei gonna one up Randy Johnson and close a World Series game that he scored offensive runs hitting for. Randy started games then came in Game 7 to close a Schilling game.
@@mattc825 let's not play "what if" or "imagine that" and since you got no crystal ball your future prediction is irrelevant. Let's stay in the now and deal with the facts huh kid
@johndurrer7869 do you know how far along he is? There's talk that he might pitch in the postseason. If he's that far along in his rehab a few splitters isn't gonna set him back. If you weren't blind you can tell he was throwing all sorts of breaking balls. Unless you think a top 5 pitchers magically lost all his control
@@stevedoe8622 Not far along enough to be throwing 100% which means not far along enough to be throwing the most dangerous pitch for the arm /splitters
does anyone else note that he isnt separating his hips from his shoulders in these throws at all? and that it probably is putting him at risk for a 3rd tommy john?
If we need him to pitch this year in the World Series so that we can win then he should if he wants to and he is Able. It’s all about winning the World Series now!!!
what's wrong with those fans? - does Ohtani seem like a zoo animal at the zoo, that you get to harass (people calling Ohtani!)? - people don't know any better. just watch and let him do his thing.
OMG, he may not be touching 100 mph but he is definitely looking strong and loose. Yes to not pushing him. Maybe if the Dodgers make it into the second or third round of playoffs, he might be ready to give a seventh inning boost to a shaky Dodgers bullpen…and he has almost pinpoint control.
@@iu2 You have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. You think watching this video and getting a peak of the tablet tells you something concrete? Get real! You have no clue what he’s capable of at this point, let alone a month from now. I’ll bet anything you were one of those proclaiming 50/50 was not possible about 2 months ago, too. Shohei may indeed not pitch this postseason. But nothing you see here or have read 3rd hand elsewhere will have anything to do with it.
@verbalkint4052 You clearly have anger issues. The GM already came out and said he's not pitching this post season. Please control yourself. Stay in school and lay off the drugs, kid.
@@fademusic1980that’s a BOLD statement. Players back in the day faced the teams BEST pitchers EVERY DAY. He might be that some day, but he is NOT right now.
I’m not a dodgers fan but I think they should run a regular 5-man rotation with Ohtani limited to 5-6 innings. That way he could get around 30 starts in, maybe 150-180 innings without as much stress on each individual outing.
Right! hopefully when he does pitch in 2025 since he is just a DH they will make him their much needed closer with a pitch count of 30 pitches to further preserve his arm.
im convinced that he will pitch in the playoffs the way he practice pitching this pregame. otherwise why is he even practicing pitching when hes only hitting this season.
It’s called rehab lol that’s part of it😂 people want him to pitch but don’t realize the risk. There’s the pitch clock and the duress from batting. Rn this year his bat is way more important than 3 outs in the playoffs
This is rehabilitation pitching practice for his return as a two-way player next year, not practice for pitching during the current season. He's Japanese, so it's just a long-range plan to prepare for next year, starting the year before. He's not throwing in games this season, so he's just doing regular warmups so his body doesn't forget the pitching. If he's serious about pitching in the postseason, he'll be doing a different routine with more test throws of different types of pitches. Perhaps this is just a warm-up pitch to get used to his shoulder.
He will not pitch this year, it's too risky for his health and also for the team records : he hasn't got momentum during real games so far. So don't expect it, let him heal first.
It's not rare actually. I'm a rightier in general, I can bat on both sides but only throw with my right. I play hockey as a lefty. Let say my right is the dominant strong one, but the left is generally more agile
I can second that. I'm a full righty for just about everything, including penmanship and eating. But yet for no reason whatsoever, and nothing intentional, I was lefty in soccer, and also in hockey.
If he is able to get that data, I’m sure the opposing team can easily get that data too, and probably use a higher quality camera to capture that data. Also if that data is so important, I doubt they will show it so clearly in front of so many people.
@@Kenny-bt4vb his translator's been doing really stupid stuff as of late. it wouldnt surprise me if he's just non-nonchalantly displaying sensitive data for the whole world to see. he's that stupid. that being said, he's still in rehab and this data will change drastically when he's 100%. so nothing to worry about.
@@Kenny-bt4vbyea they already got all the data in the world from all the previous games he has pitched. At the end of the day, the batter still gotta hit, which batters struggle to against ohtani on a usual basis
Id really like to see Ohtani pitching again, but I think he should quit doing that, the pitching will shorten his career, two surgeries and counting, the split finger is going to destroy his arm and if he doesn’t throw it, he is going to be beaten up.
This is prob part of the rehab process. Hence how he’s eating like 2-3 mins in between each pitch. But I agree his bat is way more important than his pitching for this year! Dodgers need to protect ohtani from himself like all starts need.
Damn you’re right! He had surgery about a year ago and he’s only hitting 50+ HRs batting .300. Imagine with no more elbow surgeries and quits pitching he’ll hit 70+ HRs and bat .350!
top of the ninth game 7...ohtani comes in with bases loaded, no outs... to pitch out the inning...throws 9 perfect knuckleballs to end the side. bottom of 9th, 2 outs, bases loaded...dodgers down by 3...ohtani up... grand slam walkoff...world series win. yay.
I’m so lucky to live during the Shohei era. I won’t miss a start next year when he pitches. Glued to my television.
Wouldn’t have said it better🔥
im like this this season. Ohtani made me look into MLB, but now im rooting for Yamamoto. I hope he becomes the phenom that he is in Japan
Sucker 😂
He’s gonna have 35 saves next year
He might pitch in the postseason. They said they haven’t ruled him out yet
If Ohtani injures his right elbow again in the future, he will likely try pitching left-handed next time and throw 100 mph.
The 2nd surgeries are better than the first as I believe reinforcements are added to stabalize the elbow.
😂😂🤣😭💀💯
In your dreams. lol
darvish already did
sounds like Goro Shigeno haha
This pitcher currently holds the records with 54 home runs and 59 stolen bases😂
Recovering pitcher. 😄
Mindboggling indeed
He is like the made up player in a video game who you bump all skill points to 99

>91mph in this session

Looking good ohtani keep it up
This is weapon that is presrved for next year.

Same right 75-85% right now. By next year spring training 86-99%🙏
But only him know his strength if his ready opening next year
He’ll want to pitch in the World Series. MVP.
great footage!
If this guy pitches in the playoffs this year and even strikes out one batter... he's the GOAT. Period.
He needs to knock that stuff off until the off-season. He’s got to make sure both arms are healthy for the playoffs. NO UNNECESSARY EXERTION.
he's still gotta rest and recover his arm til next season. don't wanna risk anything at all.
Sure. Lighter throws are part of the recovery process.
can easily imagine his gonna be legendary player as an out field player as well his athletic capability is out of this world
No, not really. But hey somebody gotta kick his nuts. May as well be you

No. He says the chance is almost 0.
不是先發,是關門投手
If you recover in time
Ohtani should come back in 2025 as the Dodgers closer to preserve his arm similar to Kenley Jansen who had a pitch count of 32 pitches
I don't like this. Is he fully healed?
Do you think they would even risk it if they weren’t 100% sure?
This is very normal TJS rehab, he's on correct recovery timeline. Doesn't mean he will pitch soon.
He needs to do some motions to help his rehab process along and not be too stiff. But he's not going 100% obviously

He really stopped throwing the split finger after his first surgery
The year he had a 2.33 ERA he threw the split about 10% of the time
