"Do you think that Ohtani is getting the appreciation that he deserves? He was over there 8 years at Anaheim no one cared." -Kirk Herbstreit 😒

  2. 6 years and was mid until 2021, hurt half the time, barely pitched due to finger nail issues. MLB, his agent, and dodgers collude to change the DH rule in the NL so he can freely go to the Dodgers.

  5. Ah yes, the guy who won ROTY, 2 MVPs, and was all over Japan even with the team’s struggles… no one cared. Take another L Herbstreit, dude is such a fucking joke

  7. I forgot to add Al Michaels’ quote… “Tell me about it. I live out there.” Come on Al.

  8. All I’m taking from this is that they bandwagoned on Ohtani when he moved to the Dodgers. ROTY, 2 MVPs with the Angels and he didn’t care lol.

  11. A bit revisionist. Ohtani was already building his name here. But it was with the Dodgers he truly became a household name

  14. Honestly respect. We were in the trenches watching greatness before anyone else cared.

  16. They don’t know about appreciating anything! NO ONE wanted to take a chance on Shohei, but the Angels! The fanbase loved that guy from the first terrible outing in spring training to his World Baseball Classic performance! He only was someone once he became the 2 way player he is now! Fuck those people who say shit like that!

  17. Ah yes, the guy who got nearly a billion dollar contract with the Dodgers. Nobody cares about that guy.

  19. Hey! I know that guy! He cheated on his wife and then the husband of his affair partner chased him out of Ohio.

    Fuck that guy.

  20. People cared. I have Dodger friends and family that would consistently call him overrated back then because of how much people cared and was covered
