There is no bigger star in the MLB than Shohei Ohtani. Andrew Caley breaks down the latest Ohtani odds as the superstar embarks on his eighth MLB season.

The Dodgers scored 842 runs last season. That’s 27 more than the next closest team and his biggest threats areSoto no longer has Aaron Judge hitting behind him, and while Witt is phenomenal, the consistency of the Kansas City Royals will be tested this season. So, if Ohtani wasn’t hitting home runs or doubles, he was getting himself in scoring position for the stacked lineup due up behind him, allowing them to drive him in .
Plus, this number is giving us plenty of room for a little regression. Although I wouldn’t bet it being that drastic. Lock in Over 29.5 stolen bases for Ohtani this season. Now, the two-way superstar was supposed to be ready to start the season on the mound, but an offseason shoulder surgery on his non-throwing arm has delayed his rehab and he’s not expected to face live hitters until the Dodgers return from the Japan Series on March 18-19.
I was looking at trying to get a milestone strikeout prop in here for a guy who struck out 11.4 batters per nine innings over the last three seasons, but 150+ Ks was priced around 150+ and he may not make enough starts to get there.
