San Diego being total homos and sitting araez to protect bis batting average and make it harder got ohtani to get the triple crown.

They have to save his power for the playoffs - those 4 HR across 149 games could do some real damage in in the playoffs. Man has 28 HR through 6 seasons.

It does seem cheap though. Didn't Ted Williams risk his .400 going into the last 3 games game of the season but chose to play? After 161 he was at .3995 and he went 4 for 5 in the final game to get over .400.

Yeah, pretty bitch move by the Padres, but what can ya do? Even if Ohtani goes 5/5 tomorrow, don't think he can catch him.

Absolutely wild that Arraez's average plummeted that far - still would love to see the Triple Crown. Sadly, Ohtani isn't going to quite get there and Judge decided to be a bad baseball player for three weeks to start September.

Dont the white Sox also have the highest payroll in the AL Central?
Yes but they're still only the 18th highest payroll in MLB and they're at 133m to the 130m of the Twins.

Tangential to your question the two highest payrolls in the AL Central missed the playoffs, the other three teams are all clinched.
