What’s even more wild about this is that he didn’t want any leaks about who he was meeting with- it would be within his rights to do a LeBron decision special (which I would’ve not had a problem with). So he wasn’t even parading his own free agency yet people still hate on him.
Because the fans thought there was a faint hope of going back to the good ole days of 1992-1993. And when that didn't happen, that's when hell broke loose. I was in the Rogers Centre Game 1 between LAD and Toronto. The boos were loud, but Ohtani's homerun shut them up pretty quickly.
As an Angels fan, it really sad to seeing Ohtani gone and join our local rivalry but I glad for his career success bc he really deserves on better team than my team (screw you Arte Moreno)
My friend made this analogy where the Angels organization is like Shawshank prison, Arte Moreno is the sadistic and corrupt warden, Trout is Red, and Ohtani is Andy. Ohtani escaped the Angels organization by way of free agency and is now waiting for Trout to join him on the Dodgers, like how Andy waited for Red on that Mexico beach.
I remembered the day that the "news" broke that otani was coming to Toronto I cried, the biggest Asian sports star today is coming to my home team. Then the bait and switch, I don' think i've ever been so heartbroken in my whole life.
Honestly this was just something par for the course. Toronto just loves to be humiliated on the big stage like this, it’s what we live for as a sports town. Fortunate to have teams at all given we’re a Canadian team in an all American League, but do we really have to make ourselves look this pathetic. I have no hope in this organization until the Atkins Shapiro duo are axed. They’ve destroyed the passion people in the city had for the sport of baseball.
I remember that day clearly. I watched 2 live streams on UA-cam for an 8 hour period laughing the whole time over how crazy the chat was while i worked. Perfect distraction from my actual job for the day lol.
When I first saw that I couldn’t believe it, it’s one of the only time I kept looking to see what kind of news was to come of it. When the news came out that it wasn’t ohtani I was pissed and sad about it, and then just a few days later he signed with the dodgers
Could we have actually outbid anybody? The stadium was undergoing renovations, which must have eaten up some money that could have gone into bidding for him.

Why did Toronto fans boo Ohtani? It wasn't his fault that the baseball media was hilariously incompetent.
What’s even more wild about this is that he didn’t want any leaks about who he was meeting with- it would be within his rights to do a LeBron decision special (which I would’ve not had a problem with). So he wasn’t even parading his own free agency yet people still hate on him.
They were a team in the running that he rejected.

cuz they are idiots who cant think
I'd boo him too. Traitor! You know what happens to traitors!
I was tracking that plane 😂. That was a wild day. Not a toronto fan but a ohtani fan.

I hope Mike Trout gets traded next
@@gban2647truthfully one player who deserves so much more, unfortunately an angel for life 😞

Oh yeah, Arte is just awful. Disgrace to the sport.
@@gban2647 No one would want him until he show he can play a full season again.

Looking at what Soto got the Jays should have offered 1 Billion dollars. Seriously.
Agree
Soto is not worth that. With his glove?
Soto got overpaid.

Shohei Ohtani 💪🔥💪

It wasn't 4k tracking the plane. I remember it being 40k.
I remember the day like yesterday. I was refreshing my tweeter feed every second, and I couldn’t work 😅

The Angels are idiots. Imagine the prospect haul they could have got for Ohtani
That's one problem
But the biggest problem was
NOT drafting right
Yoo shoutout the producer who made that intro shit firee
It’s cute how this is a story only to Toronto fans. The rest of the world didn’t even discuss or even know about it
December 9 will be a haunting day for Blue Jays fans 😂
Could we have actually outbid anybody? The stadium was undergoing renovations, which must have eaten up some money that could have gone into bidding for him.
the blue jays are a joke of a team i cant believe anyone in this city actually believed ohtani would come here
@@justinkoster4417 I just wanted Japanese girls to come to the city.
I remember the texas rangers fans boo him and yeld out overated, he hit a homerun on them.
Craziest? More like most ridiculous. Only in Canada
@@KiTsKoRner47 Canadians are weird
"Booo that!"
Is this current what is going on? Is he be traded to toronto or not ?
This was 1 year ago.
@mainorgarcia110 thank you I'm seeing a lot of UA-cam posts from hours ago about Othani' going to Toronto it's bugging me out
