## Resource

Shotaro Morii, a 19-year-old Japanese prospect, is rewriting the playbook in the Athletics’ minor league system by mastering both pitching and hitting while playing infield — all in pursuit of becoming the next Shohei Ohtani. Choosing versatility over specialization, he’s embraced the grind of learning English, adjusting to American training methods, and rehabbing from injury — all while staying focused on his ultimate dream: playing baseball in the big leagues.
