The Best Shohei Ohtani Trading Cards & Signed Memorabilia

It's rare that a player comes along who makes us rethink what we know about the modern baseball player. Shohei Ohtani is that player. In an era of skill specialization, the Japanese-born Ohtani breaks every norm. A pitcher who can hit for average. A home run slugger who can steal bases. A player who can move seamlessly from the pitching mound to the outfield in the same game. Shohei Ohtani is a unique, generational talent who has broken the mold of the traditional baseball player.

After starring in a Japanese professional league for five seasons, Ohtani commanded the attention of nearly every Major League Baseball team, and it was the Los Angeles Angels who ultimately won the bidding war for the budding star. Ohtani wasted no time proving himself at baseball's highest level. He won the American League's Rookie of the Year award in his 2018 debut season after batting .285 with 22 home runs and 61 RBIs, while also going 4-2 with a 3.31 ERA from the mound.

In 2019, Ohtani became the first Japanese-born player to hit for the cycle in an MLB game. In 2021, Ohtani was selected to his first All-Star Game and became the first Japanese-born player and the first pitcher to compete in the Home Run Derby. He later won league MVP honors after hitting 46 home runs, driving in 100 runs, scoring 103 times, and stealing 26 bases. But that was only half the picture. Ohtani also went 9-2 as a pitcher with an earned run average of 3.18.

Shohei Ohtani is arguably the most unique player not just of his generation but of many before and more to come. It's easy to understand then that his memorabilia and merchandise is so popular among baseball fans. Below is some of the best Shohei Ohtani memorabilia on the market, all available from Fanatics, among the leaders in sports collectibles and officially licensed sports apparel across all leagues and sports.
