MLB The Show 22 Cover Athlete: Who Should Be the Choice?

When it comes to obvious and logical cover athlete picks, MLB The Show 22 has one of the easiest jobs of all-time this year. We’ll see what happens with the lockout, but assuming MLB players can still do some normal activities, SDS has one player to go and try and snag for the cover art this year.

There are plenty of MLB players who had great 2021 seasons, so we’re open to hearing cases for players not named Ohtani. Still, it certainly feels like he checks all the boxes for what you want out of a cover athlete on your official game.
