When it comes to the most skillful baseball player’s list, Shohei Ohtani makes it to the top. Ohtani is currently in his final season with the Angels and is unlikely to extend his contract with the team. Known for his pitching and batting skills, he has been a player any team would like to onboard. The transfer market was inundated with rumors about his potential signing for multiple teams, and now the Yankees have also emerged as contenders. 

The struggling Yankees need a player like Ohtani. According to the latest insights, the Pinstripes could be in line for signing the tw0 way phenom. The rumor also resonates with the recent praise the Yankees’ owner shared for Ohtani. Though it’s great news, fans are not happy about it and have asked a few questions in their responses.

Shohei Ohtani could be a New Yorker with the Pinstripes

There is no doubt about Ohtani’s capabilities and fans’ admiration. He was one of the first of those sure of making it into the All-Star team, and that has increased after he led the MVP charts halfway through the season. He can be an excellent addition to the Yankees, with Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole on the team. Recently, an American journalist made a statement regarding the same.

Talkin Yanks shared a video clip of this discussion on Twitter. Buster Olney has speculated that Pinstripes could make it happen due to overall admiration for Ohtani. The tweet read, “Buster Olney thinks the Yankees will be the main team trying to trade for Shohei Ohtani this season.”

Although if this happened, the Yankees may greatly benefit from the two-way skills of the Japanese player. However, the conversation has not satisfied fans, and many still need help to believe this news.

New York Yankees fans question the big Ohtani move

Amidst the trade rumors, different team fan groups have shared their liking to have Ohtani. Similar has been the case with the Yankees, but people voicing it are few. They don’t have trust in their management for this move. It is also reflected in their responses to the latest reports suggesting the same. 

Some fans even claimed that the possibility of the news turning into reality is very slim.

Some fans think that it is a great news but they do not want Yankees to grow their hopes until the news turns into reality.

Fans have their own justifications for rejecting the Buster Olney’s claim. However, considering the strong support from the front office, it is highly likely to remain true until the end. Whether it will actually happen or not is something that will become evident over time.
