A lot can happen over the next 8 days in determining who gets some final roster spots, but it’s “mostly” clear who should get those gigs at this point.
Not on my list, and sure to raise some eyebrows, is Shoehei Ohtani. I’m not down on Ohtani. I think the dude has A LOT of potential still but just isn’t quite ready for MLB. Ohtani is ONLY 23 years old. Making it to the big leagues at that age is the exception and not the norm. He’s adjusting to life in the USA and to a game that’s played slightly different and with a slightly different ball.
