An honest question outside football contest

[Italian Bills]

Guys sorry, but this is the only place where i can find an answer to this baseball relate question: 

 

do you think Shohei Ohtani is the new GOAT ? And if you think yes, why ? I’m not so into baseball like i am in football and basketball, so i thought i could find what most of the people think about it. 
 

Mods, i hope you would let this thread open, also just for few hours.   Thank you 🙏

No.

 

He is very good, but he has a long way to go before he can be compared to Ruth.  In batting and pitching.

 

Average.

Slugging 

Running

ERA

 

Its all the Bambino.

He’s got to continue doing what he’s been doing for years in order to become the GOAT.  

 

Playing as many games as he does, I can’t see his body holding up enough to continue pitching and hitting at his current levels for very long.

 

I’d love to see it. I just don’t.

Greatest player of all time?  Uh no
