Describing Los Angeles Angels superstar Shohei Ohtani may not be fair to Ohtani. In theory, if unicorns exists there are likely multiple of them. But there is no other Shohei Ohtani. In fact, there may have never been nor will ever be another Shohei Ohtani.

The reigning American League Most Valuable Player has yet against been dominant in 2022. He’s proved to be one of the league’s best hitters at the plate and one of its best pitchers on the mound.

While New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge may well win the American League MVP, it’s hard to argue that anyone provides the value to their team that Ohtani does to the otherwise lowly Angels.

One picture in particular shows just how preposterously dominant Ohtani has been in 2022.

Shohei Ohtani Leads The LA Angels In Almost Every Statistical Category

The Angels, as they’ve been for much of the last decade, are an abject disaster. The team is 59-76 and nowhere near a playoff spot. Team owner Arte Moreno recently announced that he will explore selling the franchise, much to the delight of Angels fans.

Even with that said, Ohtani’s sheer dominance is eye-popping. The 28-year-old leads Los Angeles in each of the following categories: hits, batting average, on-base percentage, RBIs, home runs, wins, ERA and strikeouts.

Ohtani’s 32 home runs are second in the American League. His 85 RBIs rank fourth. He’s fifth in the league in ERA and fifth in strikeouts.

Simply put, Ohtani is absolutely dominant on the mound and at the dish. Baseball has never and likely will never see anything like him again. Baseball fans were absolutely floored by his stats.

Many feel he should win his second straight league MVP.

Aaron Judge is a phenomenal baseball player having a fantastic year. But it’s becoming nearly impossible to deny Ohtani.
