12-time All-Star & 3-time Silver Slugger Mark McGwire was in the room where it happened. As the San Diego Padres hitting coach, Big Mac helped pitch Shohei Ohtani on playing in San Diego. Big Mac talks about proposing SHO-time play the outfield, and how "effortless" baseball's biggest star is making the game seem.

I don't think there's that much mystery to why Shohei chose the Angels for his first MLB club. A combination of Mike Trout being on the team, no DH in the NL at the time, and the southern California conditions, also closer for a visit to his homeland. I'm glad he did that. Most MLB clubs would have tried to force him into choosing between hitting and pitching. We've been able to see what a superb talent and very focused athlete can do if they decide to excel at both. Maybe only Ohtani is capable of that, though I'm sure others will try.

応援者の方に感謝。↓ ありがとうございます。お借りしました。興味深い内容だったので大谷さんについて語ってる部分はほぼ全部訳されたそうです。　動画と合わせて訪問者の皆様拝読してみて下さい。司会：あなたがかつていたパドレスは、大谷獲得を考えていましたよね？大谷の今の活躍を見て、パドレスはあの時もっとああすれば良かったなど後悔があるんじゃないですか？マグワイア：来年は獲得できるかもしれないよ、まだわからない笑私は当時ベンチコーチで、大谷についてのミーティングのため大勢でLAに行ったよ。そこで彼の日本での打撃や投球のビデオを見て「うん、彼はそこそこ良いバッターじゃないかな」と思ったんだ。その頃は、ここ6年の彼の活躍までは見通せなかった。大谷が部屋に入ってきた時、まず思ったよ。「おいおい、すごいな。随分なイケメンだな。俳優じゃないか。映画に出るべきだ」ってね。彼は長身で顔が良くて、若くして既にプロの存在感を放っていた。その後、何度も何度もミーティングを重ねたけど、結局彼はエンゼルスへ行く事になった。当時はそこそこ良いバッターになるのは見えていたけど、スプリングトレーニングでレッグキックがうまくいってないようで苦戦してた。で、結局レッグキックをやめたら今のバッター大谷の誕生さ。素晴らしいよ。あんなの誰も今まで見たことがない。投球面でもまだ何も失ってない。未だに90mph後半の球を投げるし、ある時はスイーパー、ある時はスプリット。とにかくマウンド上の彼はクリエイティブ。打撃面でも、彼にはとても共感できる。彼は自信を持って打席に立っていて、相手投手が自分に対してベストな投球をしてくるのもわかってる。そこでプレートのど真ん中にボールが来たらもう”サヨナラ”だよ。銃弾のように鋭く打たれるか、ホームランかどちらか。しかも、それをいとも簡単にやっているように見える。昨日だったかな。二塁を抜ける打球があったけど、とんでもない激走をして二塁打に変えてたからね。みなさん、これは知っておいた方が良い。こんなのもう生涯見ることはないかもしれない、と。司会：大谷は今や、かつてなくパーフェクトなオールラウンドピッチャーであり、バッターであると言えますよね。パドレスはなぜもっと本気で狙わなかったんですか？マグワイア：パドレスは当時、外野手と投手をやって欲しかったからね。あの時は投手がDHとして出場できるルールも無かったしね。彼がなんでエンゼルスを選んだかは知らないけど。その当時、球界最高のプレイヤーだったマイクトラウトと一緒にプレイしたかったんじゃないかな。そして、今もそんなトラウトと一緒に勝ちたいんじゃないかな。良いチームだけど、残念ながらトラウトはまたケガしてしまってるから、なんとか戻ってきて大谷をアナハイムに引き止めたいと思ってるよね、きっと。

@TheRover87 10 ай бұрын

DH was the main reason he didn't go to an NL team because to play the outfield daily and pitch is too much for the human body! Ohtani has played all but 2 games this year and has admitted to being tired lately. There's 0 chance he could play outfield and pitch too without being too tired and his body breaking down. I'm hoping he goes to the Dodgers next year because he'll still get to live basically the same socal live and they consistently make the playoffs. Teams have been barely pitching to Ohtani since the all-star break and especially since toronto intentionally walked him so much. I think he has 20 or so solo homers too, otherwise he should have 100+ rbi by now. I can't wait till he goes to a team where they can't focus on getting Ohtani out and pitching around him!

It's a legit strategy though. It's up to his manager / the rest of the lineup to capitalize on his walks.

Count the amount of intentional walks he received on those weeks before saying something like that... Teams haven't been pitching to him lately and has literally zero protection on the lineup... his "decline" isn't because he's tired Compare him to Matt Olson for example, who has Acuña, Riley and Albies and I would say that 70%+ times he steps on home plate there's a player on base
