Cujo Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 4 minutes ago, LMU said: Ohtani is starting to come across as the person who puts “I hate drama” on their dating profile then proceeds to end up being the most dramatic person on the planet. And, really, he’s coming across at this point as a ringless baseball Kahwi. Do we know if Ohtani has received 'final offers' from all teams involved? Not going to blame him for holding off on a decision if teams are still trying to out-bid each other for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 3 hours ago, FiddySicks said: I really miss the days when these guys would sign relatively quickly and this whole free agency period was actually fun. The last few years of these guys waiting until the last possible minute to sign while half of these sports writers twist themselves into knots trying to be the first to break the news is just tiresome. It’s taken one of the most fun parts of the sport and made it more annoying than fun. Of all of the recent changes, most of which I’m mixed on anyway, this is by far the my least favorite. Waiting until the last possible minute? It’s DECEMBER. The winter meetings JUST ended. 1 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

Shumway Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 As an Angels fan, this sucks, but I'm also admittedly a little relieved. That contract is absolutely outrageous, but I also really didn't want anyone else to have Ohtani Can't blame the guy for leaving though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 I'm just glad Morosi didn't say he was on a flight to Chicago yesterday. Toronto fans have gotta feel like they got kicked in the stick with how everything played out. However, I am curious to know if negotiations changed and LA ponied up more after the Toronto reports came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I have read that there's a contingent of Japanese media types who live in Los Angeles with their families who cover Ohtani on a daily basis. Those people are most likely happy that they don't have to uproot their families and figure out where to stay and where their kids go to school.

ruttep Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 I don't think I can physically comprehend someone getting this amount of money to throw a ball and hit it with a bat. This is absolutely insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floydnimrod Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Ugh. I was genuinely pumped yesterday when the Toronto news first came out. This was the most boring option all along. Mancakes: The Bandhttps://twitter.com/FloydNimrod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'd predict the NL West as: Dodgers 110+ wins Dbacks 80-90 wins Padres 70-80 wins Giants 70-80 wins Rockies <65 wins They're gonna run away with this sorry division. I still think Arizona will sneak into the playoffs and win a round or two, but this isn't even a contest in the regular season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttep Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Between this, Arson Judge, and Correa's physical, it's been a rough couple years of free agency for my Giants. I might have to take a year off from baseball this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
