This is the thing -- I think very few people think it's sustainable.

He has the talent, the only question, much like Mantle, is health.

Regardless of sustainable, what he is accomplishing this season is nothing like anything we've ever seen.

Even more remarkable in that most Japanese players have come over here and been outmatched. This guy is on another level.

I'll take Vlad Guerrero Junior over him any day of the week and going forward as well.....without blinking an eye.

Eloy? Seriously? He needs 34 homeruns at this point to catch up to Ohtani. Appreciate he's hitting 315.

Ohtani's track record is what brings things into question. He is unquestionably having one of the most remarkable seasons anyone has ever had. But he also had a real turd of a season last year and wasn't particularly good either year before that, even if we won ROY.

You do know Eloy has played in only 20 games right?

He just came back.

Going to be a monster.
