Dodgers have a secret weapon. If Ohtani agrees to do a few co-endorsement deals with Roki it would make it nearly impossible for anyone else to sign him. It would increase his endorsement value in Japan by like 500%
There’s another Japanese pitcher that no one is talking about because he’s older, he just turned 35 and that’s Tomoyuki Sugano. It says he’s projected a one year 12m contract. The guy has had incredible numbers in Japan. I think the Giants get him
He can announce that he is signing with a team long before he actually signs the contract. Sort of like how college football players announce that they’re signing with a school long before signing day

He would never sign with the Yankees! They boo players and he would never choose a team like that!
It’s more because they cheered Ohtani’s injury. Japanese people are furious with the Yankees right now
