Chapter 351 Conjecture about Shohei Otani

"Japan likes small ball tactics, and with the metal bats they have been playing in high school, it's normal to not play well." Dr. Yuan, as the No.1 in Taiwan's baseball reviews, is also very concerned about U18: "In Taiwan, it's the other way around. The stick was used very early, but no matter what, Shen Qin is a special case, just like Shohei Otani."

Shohei Otani was not able to participate in the WBC this time. Everyone was very sorry. Huang Xiao, as his fan, was even more so. After hearing this, he sighed and said: "Dual Swordsman, it would be great if he could come."

Strong pitching and strong hitting, a Japanese with a ball speed of [-] kilometers, and excellent hitting ability, how rare. : "Dr. Yuan, when do you think Ohtani will be able to challenge the major leagues?"

"There is news that it will be next year. I think it is very possible. After all, he had this idea when he graduated from high school. If the Ham team had not dissuaded him and he was young, he would have gone there at that time."

"If he goes next year, according to the rules, his annual salary will be very cheap. Coupled with the commercial value, I believe every team will rush to get it."

"Yes, but I personally don't think he will play in big cities. The Dodgers and Yankees can basically be ruled out."

"Oh? Why?"

"The New York Mets fans and the media in the same city can get rid of the acid infinitely. We all know that the media in New York is quite mean. The other team in the same city is even more terrible. The Yankees are the team that has won the most world championships in the major leagues. For their fans, if you don’t perform well, it doesn’t matter if you’re one of them or not, you’ll still be booed from beginning to end!”

"The media will not let go of any of your mistakes. After the report is magnified 100 times, those with poor psychological quality will be timid when they go on stage!"

"So the Doctor thinks it's going to be in the small market?"

"That's not necessarily true. St. Louis is a small market with moderate fans, but in some respects it's not worse than a big market. In comparison, the Chicago White Sox, which was divided by last year's champion Chicago Cubs, is really good It’s not a big market. But I personally think Shohei Ohtani will definitely be on the West Coast team.”

"So sure? Why?"

"Time! Shohei Otani has a huge Japanese market on him, and the time on the West Bank just fits Japan. After all, no one can stay up late to watch football for a long time."

In this way, Huang Xiao suddenly realized that there is indeed such a truth: "Which team does the doctor prefer?"

"Surprisingly or Angel, we have to consider that Otani is a two-handed player who can shoot and play in his career. When he chooses a team, he must consider which one can give him the most room to play."

"The giants in even-numbered years have won doubles since 10 years ago. Of course, last year they were broken by the Cubs who had been silent for a hundred years. The current giants' outfield depth is relatively shallow, and the pitching group is not very strong. In addition, the Japanese in San Francisco There are quite a few, and the media is relatively moderate, most of them pick the good and not the bad. And Shohei Otani hits from the left, and everyone knows that the right field of the Giants Stadium is very short, which is very beneficial to him, a pull-up hitter!"

"Let's talk about the Angels again. The Angels are a team in Anaheim, Los Angeles. It is reasonable to say that they have a big market, but the team in the same city is the Los Angeles Dodgers. Coupled with the problem of their team management model, it is simply a big market. It has become a small market. The pitchers are glass-hearted. Otani used to be the second and third starters. If it is a team like the Yankees, he can only start from the bullpen. Of course, the more important thing is that Otani is very young. Japan The media in China are very kind-hearted, but it is different in the United States. They are willing to ridicule you every day, and they are willing to lift you up and then knock you down again."

"The Angels are not afraid of this, because the media is too lazy to spend time for them, and it is too late to chase Dodge."

"Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres don't need to think about it. After all, they are mid-range teams. Unlike the Angels, who have the contemporary mythical beast Trout and the biochemical man's former Cardinal God Pujols, even if the record is not good, they can still attract a lot of viewers. .But I wonder if Otani likes dolls as much as Hanyu? After all, there is Disney there.”

……

Shen Qin went back to the locker room to change his uniform after batting practice, and there were teammates talking about Shohei Otani.It's a pity that he didn't participate in the competition and didn't see Baimai speedball or something.

Shen Qin is very interested in Shohei Ohtani, because Shohei Ohtani is a fireball man, and so is Coach, who is also a two-seamer!

Otani can strike, although Coach is a bit weaker, he can still fight, but he can still shoot left and right, so I can't help but have some fantasy.

"Shut up your wild thoughts!" Xi Chuanlong poked his head: "Otani's body is very fragile, and he started less than 100 innings in most of the seasons in Japan. What kind of concept is this? If he goes to the major leagues, press Counting the rotation of five players, there are 162 games in the regular season, and each person starts 30 games on average, which is half more than Otani's current starting games per season, plus the impact, he can't do it." (Otani's season is coming to an end this year. Only cast 50 innings~)

"But I think he's a good hitter~uh~ against the right. Not so good for the left."

"His job is to be a pitcher. No matter how good he is in hitting, for example, if he doesn't pitch anymore, he just hits, he can be a DH and doesn't have to defend. If he hits 30 times a year without any injuries, then he can hit 80-100 RBIs, then he will be qualified. . You don’t need me to tell you about the results of a full-time DH in the major leagues?” (Not absolutely) (Rebirth of Nishikawa)

"That Coach..."

Xi Chuanlong patted the stool and made people turn up their feet and took out socks to wear: "Coach wouldn't do that. Even if it really proves that both sides can be balanced, what's the point? After a few years of glory, it will be greatly improved. shortened careers."

"Then don't! It's good to do the same thing." Yuri has always talked about health when Shen Qin was a little older. The reason why he didn't let himself squat for hunting was also because of this. He hoped that he could protect his knees and wait until he entered the profession. You can extend this career as long as possible.

Yuri himself participated in the draft and entered the profession at the age of 18. He is now almost 29 years old. In his professional career of more than ten years and ten years in the major leagues, except for injuries caused by collisions, he has never entered due to discomfort caused by fatigue and accumulation. After being on the injured list, his knees and shoulders are still in very good health.

Shen Qin couldn't imagine that if Kou Chi had been injured and had repeated record and directly quit directly after entering the profession, if~if that~ Kouchi would definitely cry.

"Ah Choo~" Coach Chi, wearing a panda suit and holding a sign, sneezed big on the guardrail, and the kid next to him looked at the giant panda strangely: "Big Fatty~ Do you have a cold?"

Coach: "..."

"Don't think about it, just play hard!"

"Ok!"

"Wait! Come here!" Xi Chuanlong took out a thin chain from his pocket and put it on Shen Qin: "Reward! Come on, bun!"

Reward or something!Buns and stuff!Not happy at all!
The pendant of the necklace is a round bun! ! !
　emmm Otani's injury before the season, everyone was guessing. I guessed for a season, but I didn't expect that I would not be able to fight twice in three months. Hey
