Shohei Ohtani News
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani was unanimously named the 2021 Most Valuable Player of the American League Thursday after a historic season in which he made 23 starts on the mound, compiling a 9-2 record with a 3.18 ERA, a 1.09 WHIP, and 156 strikeouts in 130 1/3 innings as well as slashed .257/.372/.592 with 46 home runs, 26 steals, 100 RBI, and 103 runs in 633 plate appearances. Ohtani received the American League Rookie of the Year Award in 2018, and he now adds another piece of hardware by way of 30 first-place votes.
Los Angeles Angels designated hitter/starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani had one hit -- a home run -- in three at-bats during Sunday's 7-3 win over the Seattle Mariners. It was a solo shot in the first inning that gave him 100 RBI on the season. He also walked twice, his 20th and 21st walks in his last 14 games. He ends the season with a .257/.372/.592 slash line, along with 46 home runs and 26 stolen bases. He also finishes the year with impressive numbers on the mound, as he pitched to a 3.18 ERA, 29.3 K% and 1.09 WHIP over 130 1/3 innings. This production has made him the American League MVP front-runner, and Ohtani should be a first-round draft pick next season in almost every league.
Los Angeles Angels designated hitter/starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani will be leading off for just the second time this month in the team's season finale against the Seattle Mariners on Sunday. Outfielder Brandon Marsh, who has been the team's primary leadoff hitter, is out of the starting lineup for the game. Ohtani has mostly hit out of the No. 2 spot this year. He's had a fantastic year at the plate, slashing .257/.371/.588 with 45 home runs, 26 stolen bases, 99 RBI and 102 runs. He's done pitching for the year. He made 23 starts on the mound and went 9-2 with a 3.18 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP.

There were few developments more disappointing in 2020 than Los Angeles Angels two-way starShohei Ohtani's season as a pitcher coming to an end after just two outings. That was not even the end of the disappointment list for the Angels two-way player, as he was pretty pathetic at the plate as well with a .190/.291/.366 slash line in 175 plate appearances. The plan for 2021 is the same as it's always been: To give Ohtani one start on the mound per week and let him serve as the designated hitter in between those starts. It is possible that his disastrous 2020 season can be attributed to a lack of health. If that is the answer, he could very well be the most valuable player in fantasy in leagues where you can use him as both a hitter and a pitcher. The raw talent is unmatched, and has been on display this spring. Ohtani has flashed elite sprint speed, has hit multiple 470 foot home runs, and his fastball has touched 100mph in Cactus League play. You should buy that lottery ticket.
