Shohei Ohtani to revive dual wield No “limit” D Army director “Separate from ordinary ideas” | Full-Count

Director Madon “How many pitches in the starting pitching, pitching once a week … I will separate from that idea”

Angels pitcher Shohei Ohtani will celebrate his fourth major camp in on the 17th (18th Japan time). Director Joe Maddon gave his unchanging confidence in the dual wield in an online interview with the press on the 16th (17th), the day when the pitcher and catcher battery groups gathered. “If you give him a chance, Shohei Ohtani can be one of the best players of his generation. I’ll talk to him, watch his play and communicate. Already in Japan that way (dual wield). I was successful. I’ll keep an eye on you anyway. “

Otani broke his right forearm early last season. The pitcher only pitched two pitches, and the batting average was in the 10% range, which was far from the main condition. During the off-season, he was rehabilitating as a pitcher. The commander, who saw the rehab footage, said, “The pitching form was very good. I look very confident now. He needs to play the full season. Play without many restrictions. I want you to do it. ” As a commander, I have no intention of setting limits.

“How many pitches do you throw on the starting pitcher, you only pitch once a week, or you only play as a designated hitter on a specific day. I’m going to separate from that idea. You need to prepare first as a pitcher. Because it’s difficult. Then the batter. As a pitcher, first make a schedule and then include the batter’s schedule. I think that’s the best way. “

The pitchers, who were the challenge, won a total of 83 wins in FA and won the left arm Quintana. The cub, which has won four double-digit wins, was trade-reinforced. “I’m happy with the off-strengthening. Quintana and Cobb are in very good shape right now. They’re great at the clubhouse. I can’t wait to see the greatness of Shohei with my own eyes,” said Madone. With the great expectations of the commander, the start of 2021 will be made.
