I thought the Ohtani gambling saga was clear and straightforward He wasn't involved

To distract from the year long lockout heading our way

The interpreter took the fall for Ohtani. It’s pretty clear Ohtani means too much for MLB to have him found guilty & miss potential years in his prime.

This is the answer, of course. Anything done since is a desperate attempt to convince people otherwise.

I wish I was as childishly naive as your downvoters.

He should retire and go play basketball for a couple years

That MF'er was 100% involved.
I know it, you know it, MLB knows it, but they could never bring down their all-everything poster boy.

Slight hijack: what is it with all these super-elite athletes and gambling?
Michael Jordan
Floyd Mayweather
Pete Rose
Paul Hornung
Charles Barkley
Jaromir Jagr
Ohtani
My theory is that they have this delusion of invincibility that makes them feel like they just can’t lose.

You're probably right but it's hard to believe they would be that shortsighted and moronic enough to do that. But they probably will

If Ohtani had signed with Houston, Tampa, St Louis, Arizona or any other organization outside of NY, LA, Boston, or Chicago, he would be in jail right now.
Or at the minimum, he'd be back in Japan playing ball there.

So you believe that he let interpreter have control of that much money sight unseen?

I disagree. He is too good and valuable. He would skate no matter what.
I suspect the interpreter will have a very nice donation to his bank account the day he leaves custody.

Painfully obvious to anyone that wasn't a dodger fan or Jeff passan that this was the case.

Nah they're just crazy competitors with money to afford a gambling problem. To them... "the action is the juice".

Nothing will come from it. ESPN brought it back up to get some clicks. Which it looks like it will be successful in getting. Notice it was released after NBA done, World Cup done, before college and NFL football. No current deal with MLB. WNBA just isn’t getting it done for them.

I believe that this is the correct answer. Can I at least get 2% for the invincibility angle?

Ohtani with a lead off bomb to celebrate the release of this nothing burger podcast.

It's arguable that the crime of robbing the public of the pleasure of watching his marvelous talent would be a greater detriment to society than the crime hes alleged to have committed. Im thankful for the interpreter and his ability to grasp the bigger picture. He'll be handsomely rewarded if all said is true. Win win.
