Outside of the Jays this has been a fun year of MLB - Ohtani might win the triple crown and that isn't the big story. His 50-50 season (could be 55-55 easily) is. Then you have the White Sox losing 121 with 2 games to go (I hope they lose both so they have fewer wins than the '62 Mets who had 2 games rained out iirc). Judge having a season for the ages - 325/461/708 while playing CF, leading in HR, RBI, BB, OBP, Slg with a 226 OPS+ (25th highest ever - Bonds at peak PEDs the only other to be that high since Ted Williams retired). The NL has 3 teams within 1 of each other for the final 2 WC slots - Arizona up 1 on the Mets & Atlanta with 2 games left. No one won 100 this year, just 2 lost 100 with a 3rd on the edge (Rockies have 99 losses with 2 to go vs the Ohtani Dodgers). Hard to believe no one made it to 100 wins with the horrid White Sox around, but it happened.

Judge 2 shy of 60 with 2 to go, 2 guys have 200+ K's with a 3rd in eyeshot (Schwarber is 5 shy).3 guys have 50+ SB, 2 with 50+ HR, so far just Witt Jr with 200 hits, but Vlad & Luis Arraez are at 199, and Ohtani is 6 short (right now I wouldn't be shocked if he hits 6 more HR to reach 60 in these last 2 days - that is what kind of year he has had). Ohtani is also a member of the 130-130 club (R/RBI) - just happened 64 times before, Judge in 2022 the most recent, tons from 1997-2007 mostly PED guys (A-Rod, Sosa, McGwire, ManRam, plus Bagwell, Helton, and Walker), then you gotta go back to 61-62 for Willie Mays, Frank Robinson, and Roger Maris. Mickey Mantle '56, Ted Williams a batch of times, then you are into pre-integration when it was commonplace from 1920 (Ruth) to 1949 (Williams and Stan Musial and Johnny Mize). Before that you gotta go back to 1890's (7 times).

Basically I'd say Ohtani is Ted Williams, mixed with a fast runner, mixed with an all-star pitcher. Yikes.
