I'd say that honor goes to Matsuzaka or Matsui. Matsui was decent but both them failed to live up to the hype. Ohtani is younger and more versatile but I don't think he is the best prospect to come out... And to early to call him a top 10 pitcher after watching Dice K who in my opinion was the best Japanese prospect ever to come here and struggle Unfair to say Matsui failed to live up to expectations tbh. He was a legit middle of the order bat for almost a decade into his late 30s. Dice K was overrated. 5 foot something guy who threw like 92.

Are we talking at draft age? Because I think you could argue a few other dudes. Strasburg and Josh Hamilton have a case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think he's definitely the best draft prospect since Harper, but then there's the second part of the statement "or since A-Rod" where there's a little more room for discussion. Strasburg, Hamilton, Prior, David Price, and probably a few guys I'm forgetting. Ohtani is in that class for sure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrubes20 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 So Peter Gammons said that Ohtani was blown away by Theo and his pitch, and would have signed with the Cubs very quickly if they had the DH. But they don't. So he didn't. **** everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why he included any NL teams in his list if this is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The $$$$$$$$$ being shelled out won't make it difficult either. Cubs may be the only team with an opening at a COF spot, lots of money to spend, and a legit contending team.
