For one of the rare times in baseball history, the top prospect in the game plays outside the United States. The Washington Nationals, when the time comes, should take a hearty interest in Shohei Otani.
Compared to Babe Ruth for his ability to smash home runs and pitch, Otani is a game changer no matter which way he wants to play.
Although most forget how good a pitcher was with the Boston Red Sox, winning 89 games with an ERA of 2.19 over six seasons, he is remembered for his prodigious power and offense with the New York Yankees.
