In the red corner, measuring six feet and three inches and weighing 210 pounds: Shohei Ohtani, striker, launcher and three times named MVP unanimous.
In the blue corner, measuring five feet and ten inches and weighing 175 pounds when he does not catch a virus in Japan: Mookie Betts, Voltiger, interior field player and former player par excellence.
Who do you put your balls on when you come time to choose the best athlete among the two?
In any case, Betts has his idea. Indeed, questioned by Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic on this subject, the 32 -year -old man did not go through four paths.
Me. Not even close.
Even if Shohei Ohtani is undoubtedly the best player of the Los Angeles Dodgers, the question is who is the best athlete of the team. And Betts clarified his thought.
If we talk about whether he runs quickly, if he jumps high and everything, Shohei would win. But, with regard to the pure coordination skills, I don't think it's close. I feel like it's just what I do. It's just that God blessed me.
Rosenthal noted that Dodgers players gave Betts a slight advantage on Ohtani as the best athlete in the Californian training, although it was recognized that they had never seen Ohtani doing something other than playing baseball.
If we judge athletics by the ability of a person to practice different sports at a high level, Betts would seem to have an advantage, he who is a high -level quest with a perfect part of 300 in the world of bowling.
Betts also participated in the Pro-Am AT & T in Pebble Beach in 2022, the official PGA Tour website listed it as having a disability of ten. Then the latter added the pickleball to his Sports list outside Baseball last year.
Unfortunately for the rest of the MLB, the Dodgers both have them in their alignment.
