What the heck was going on with him in spring training? Unbelievable. It will be very interesting to see how things go from here. I can't speak on the pitching, but I know that in ST he had a huge leg kick when he swung and the Angels had him work on it and now he's just using a toe tap. If you look at the before and after, it's a huge difference.

I saw an article that Ohtani has the second highest exit velocity off the bat, but the article wasn't about him it was about Heyward. He has the highest exit velocity in baseball at the end of friday, and still he hasn't showed much for it.

I've seen several Cubs games this year and Heyward has hit a bunch of rockets right at people. He's gone away from a lot of the stuff they tried to get him to do last year, they have a new batting coach that told him to just do whatever feels best. The funny thing is his stance and swing look just like they did in 2016, and that was his worst season. But for whatever reason he's hitting the ball hard so far this year.

Why I was totally wrong about Shohei OhtaniIf Ohtani goes into a prolonged slump on the mound and at the plate, is he going to write another article in two weeks saying he was wrong to say that he was wrong? Maybe he's jumping to conclusions a little too quickly. Just a thought. An insane one, I know.

I doubted Ohtani like many of you did. We've been proven wrong. The tweet still isn't showing up.
