Ohtani isn't making much. His hope was to tear it up and make his dough through arbitration. That isn't going to happen now. It still isn't a for sure surgery. He could still opt to see how the platelets injection works and just play sans pitching. |

The Angels, the home of shitty contracts since Free Agency began in the 1970s. |

http://www.sportingnews.com/mlb/news/sh ... hn70sf6c45 A link with the video of the initial report. Looks like no on DH as well. Angels season not so promising anymore. |

Yeah, but pitching is cool. Besides, he wasn't going to sign unless he had the opportunity to be a two wayer. |

He pulled a Hugh Downs and won't be back until 2020. BTW, Hugh Downs is alive and well at the young age of 97. |

They said the impact of a MLB swing on the elbow is about 1/3 of a pitch. So three swings of a bat equals 1 MLB pitch. 140 PA's, 4-5 swings per PA? It's something to ponder. |
