First person
Adam learned how to turn his mic on 🗣️
Couldn’t agree more. Murakami was the big name given his age and that the HR numbers jump off the page more, but (in my opinion) the Jays got the better all around player and that fits the teams culture better.
Given his hitting prowess and contact skills combined with popkins philosophy hes gonna rake
Boy, I pray we'll be calling him Kiryu Kazuma in a few months.
Lets just hope he isnt the next Kazuo Matsui …. Remember him ??
Who wants to bet that he’s gonna have a better batting average and more home runs than Otani and I washed out player Tucker
ANOTHY SANTANDER WILL BE THE JAYS BEST OUTFIELDER THIS YEAR
Jays set the bar really high last season and have alot to live up to this season. I would guess the Yankees will be the team to beat. Orioles and Red Sox should be better. Jays could either do well overall or flop pretty hard and I have no idea which it will be. but, that's what can make it all fun to find out.
I don't think he will have a issue hitting MLB pitching it's mike
He can hit 40 home runs this season
Hel hit more than Guerrero
Please revisit these predictions at end of year, i think these are low also.
The next Hideki Matsui in a Blue Jays uniform
I'm excited about the Matsui comparison.
35 HR'S, .270+, 80-85 RBI'S
I like the Teo comparison Nick. Definitely with less K's than Hernandez!
Okamato is basically a better prime Whit Merrifield
100% agreed. was shocked Okamoto didn't get as much fanfare given his consistent NPB track record on a big market team, and also being the 2nd best hitter on the 2023 WBC team.
If he can play 3rd, Barger at 2nd, still don't like Santander, but I will apologize if I'm wrong, this team is really good
Don't forget that we can watch him in the WBC
He’s projected to hit.230-.250 with a .750 ops and 22-25 hr.. pretty average numbers
How's his glove? Can he hold it down at 3rd base?
