Guy threw 50 innings and hit 40 home runs and his name is routinely placed in the same sentence as Babe Ruth.
Well it's a good thing he reached his dreams...made millions of dollars and actually does what you do in a video game. Question would you switch spots with him ?

God I hope ohtani is ok. He’s the modern babe Ruth we need him
This is just a bad look for you..
-
He can be great at 1 thing or be really good at both and help his team out more. Injuries happen to everyone lol. If ohtani takes a year to just hit I’m sure he’d drop 45 bombs in the regular 162. If he pitched for a year only, easily over 200 K’s. The guy wants to be great at both things and that’s no ones fault
-
He needs to become a hitter only, also you can't blame him for his hype thats the media.

I don't think Shohei is overrated. He's very [censored] talented, he's just struggling to get healthy.
Not really as talented as what people think. He’s really a platoon against righties, and a good to great pitching arm, which currently can’t stay healthy

Why do you hate on him personally? what has he done to you to hate on him?

He is also factually incorrect. Ohtani definitely is weaker versus lefties, but he still hits pretty well.
Ohtani hit .282 vs lefties last year, .447 slugging isn't that impressive, but the ops of .794 puts him as an above-average hitter. -

The potential is not overrated. Talking about a player after he is injured to say he is overrated??// It is bad to do that.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, I have never heard him be compared to Ruth. Was he hyped by the media yeah he was. The majority of players that come over from Japan are hyped by the media. If he did not get injured or just hit and not pitch would he be overrated? Is he overrated cause he got injured and his numbers do not equal to what they should be? I have not heard anything about him being as good as such and such player. Thy hype was about him being a two way player. He is good enough to be that but injury have slowed him down from his potential does that make him overrated no. Overrated is a guy who is when healthy under perform of his expectations. He has performed to expectations when healthy as a hitter I would say he should stop trying to pitch but the jury is still out on how good he can be as a pitcher due to injury.

He was not only hyped by the media but also by the fans... they thought they definitely had a guy that was going to make the Angels playoff contenders. Which in all honesty even if he is healthy he isn’t enough to do that

Not realistic fans. He does make the Angles a lot better than what they were when Healthy. Realistically he is not overrated cause he has not under performed when healthy.

People forget the fact he played from 2001-2010. He had a wonderful peak, but people act like he was at the same level as Babe Ruth and Ted Williams, when in reality his second half was a non hall-of-fame compiler tier career. For reference, from 1989-1999(The first 11 years of his 22 year career), he was an absolute monster. These 11 years are what made him rightfully a first ballot Hall of Famers. But from 2000-2010(the last 11 years), he was merely above average. He turned into an injury riddled player who could hit a bomb or two when healthy. This is the part of his career that takes him out of the inner circle, and takes him out of the comparisons with the Tippy Top greats, though a lot of people still rank him there due to rose tinted nostalgia goggles

Based on the title I thought Harper got hurt and he isn't even playing.
Tbh Harper being overrated has become such a mainstream thing that he has become underrated. He’s actually pretty good but people refuse to believe it
Good player? Yes. Worth 30 million/yr? No. He isn't close to Trout and Betts.

Harper doesn't make 30m a year. He makes 25.4m a year. He doesn't even rank among the top 10 in AAV. It's kind of Odd Harper gets this level of heat for his contract, but nobody talks about Greinke's contract, which places him significantly higher than AAV. Last I checked he was #1 all time in that regard

He has not under performed with good expectations, he hasn’t not under performed with great expectations and more from his fans.

Very true we can only imagine how his number would be if he stayed healthy,
