And perhaps the best Jiminez, not surprisingly a number of players by that name but none with much success I don't think.

Nothing too incredible to report here:

Ohani stole home last night...now has 22 total steals.

AMAZING!

Imo the biggest reason that Ohtani and Trout aren't talked about more is that they have both been with the same bad team for their entire MLB career. Relevant:

As an Ohtani fan and a Yankees fan, I have mixed feelings about that. The Yanks were already down 5-2, so I guess it doesn't really matter.

As he states in the article, Ohtani could have signed with anyone. Even with the advent of free agency, the draft still dictated where Trout began his career.

And Trout himself dictated where he apparently will play out the rest of it -- hoping against hope to add to his total of 3 postseason games.
