Oh oh oh, Ohtani.

By Rick Roth

MLB released list of most popular baseball jerseys. List below. Topping it, was Shohei Ohtani. Also smart to take that deferred payroll, he rakes it in on merch and endorsements. He has an OPS of 1.083 so his playing isn’t too shabby either, and he hasn’t even started pitching yet.

No, not this one the Rams gave him. Though since he can hit and pitch and steal bases, maybe he could knock your block off as well…
and not this one, the Japanese version.
Yeah this one. And he leads the Dodgers in not just baseball as there are six Dodgers in the top twenty in jersey sales including former #1 Mookie Betts. Since I can’t imagine you buy a new jersey every year for your favorite player, amazing to see Betts up there still at number four.

  1. Nicely written Rick. Now you made me want to watch him, and I’m not a baseball watcher most of the time. Like the light and funny touch of your words, and the sense of Flow !
