LA Dodgers Shohei Ohtani is considered the greatest player in history even before completing 10 major league seasons. There is no disagreement. Even if we vote for the Hall of Fame right now, we should say that we can get 100 percent of the vote.

This year, he also became the fourth MVP in his career and three consecutive years with a unanimous opinion. In the most MVP category ever, he ranked second after Barry Bonds (7 times). Considering that Bonds won the 2001-2004 award for four consecutive years with the power of steroids, Ohtani's four-time award shines even more.

Since he signed a 10-year, $700 million FA contract and moved to the Dodgers, he has also won the World Series twice. In addition to the seventh MVP, Bonds posted the most home runs (762), the most walks (2,558), and the most bWAR (162.8) in his career, but he never won the World Series.




Ohtani's first historical achievement in the five years since 2021 when he began his double as a hitter in earnest is too much to list. Examples include 40 home runs-150 strikeouts in 2021, 40 home runs-10-150 strikeouts in 2023, 50 home runs-50 steals in 2024, and 50 home runs-50 strikeouts in 2025.

In Game 4 of the division series against the Milwaukee Brewers last month, he played as a leadoff pitcher and scored three home runs and 10 strikeouts. It is the first record in Major League history, including the regular season. In Game 3 of the World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays, he recorded an unprecedented ninth base in postseason history with four hits (two homers, two doubles) and five walks (including four intentional pitches). His path soon leaves a mark of history.

Then, how many trophies has Ohtani won since his Major League debut. I only considered individual awards. Looking at the baseball statistics site 'Baseball Reference'Awards section, it was found that a total of 27 awards have been received so far this year.

The content is as follows.

He won 27 categories, including Rookie of the Year (2018), 4 MVP (2021, 2023-2025), 5 Edgar Martinez Awards (2021-2025), 3 Hank Aaron Awards (2023-2025), 4 Silver Sluggers (2021, 2023-2025), 8 All-MLB teams (2nd team as a starting pitcher, 4 first team as a designated hitter, 1 Segand team as a designated hitter), and 2 Sporting News Player of the Year (2021 and 2024).

In addition, he won the Commissioner's Historical Achievement Award' for opening a new horizon in the Major League through a combined pitching and hitting job in 2021, which means he has won 28 trophies including this award. It can be said that he was on the stage of the award ceremony 28 times to settle a season. This season alone, he received the honor in five categories: MVP, Edgar Martinez Award, Hank Aaron Award, Silver Slugger, and All-MLB First Team Designated hitter.

Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees, who form the 'two walls' with Ohtani, won 19 titles, including Rookie of the Year (2017), 3 MVPs (2022, 2024-2025), 5 Silver Sluggers (2017, 2021-2022, 2024-2025), 5 All-MLB teams (4 first team outfield, 1 second team), 3 Hank Aaron Awards (2022, 2024-2025), 1 Sporting News Player of the Year (2022), and 1 Roberto Clemente Award (2023).

What is even more surprising about Ohtani is that it is difficult to even figure out how many more to add in the future. There is a high possibility that he will be named MVP as well as the best designated hitter and the best starting pitcher next year. In the 2026 NL MVP dividend rate presented by U.S. sports betting company DraftKings, Ohtani ranks first with -110. Second place is New York Mets Juan Sotoro +800, which is difficult to compare.

In fact, Babe Ruth is the only major leaguer who has dominated an era with an unrivaled presence like Ohtani.

President Andrew Friedman said, `There is a limit to the human brain to understand what Ohtani can do on the baseball field. I don't understand how special it is and how unique it is."
