Ohtani to Dodgers for an ungodly amount of money

[UMFan83]

Ok as I’ve read more and more I can see that he is openly mocked for being wrong on reports. False alarm, stick with PlaymakerDavid though of course. 

[WhyCantWeWin]

Everyone's just trolling or just making horsefeathers up. Until Ohtani announces it I'm not believing horsefeathers

[UMFan83]

How does the news finally break for Ohtani?

-Mainstream reporter (Rosenthal, Heyman, etc)

-Local beat reporter

-Team Twitter account

-Players Tribune article

-Ohtani holds a press conference to announce

-Japanese news source translated into English

-Other?

If it's not Passan or Rosenthal reporting it, I'm not believing it.

Hell, even Rosenthal fucked up yesterday.

Ohtani's dog tweets his decision 

[Brian707]

First Fergie and the PA announcer putting out what might be hints and now this CJ guy who has hit on the Judge contract last year. There might be a little smoke here, although CJ has been wrong more times than not.

Just follow the lead of the former PSD posters . You don’t sleep. 
 

Ever.

At this point, lets just have him drag it out until late January.

If Ohtani ends up signing with the dodgers how mad are jays fans going to be? That would be the ultimate tease.

As mad as the Montreal Canadiens fans after watching their team draft a defenseman with their first pick in '23 draft.

I'm finding myself steadily moving to the point where I don't care where he signs anymore. I just want this done so something new can be talked about.

I have been there the last few days. I mean, sure I would love it if the Cubs for him. But time to move on to other things.

[Banedon]

If we have to wait another month and we end up getting Ohtani, I'd be perfectly fine with that.

As long as they don’t sit still for another month and miss out on other moves, sure. But I don’t want them silent for a month as moves are made by other teams. Then end up not getting Ohtani. Or even getting him but not being able to add around him because the moves they wanted to make are no longer there.

I don’t want them to not get him and miss out on others because they waited, but if they get him, who cares if they miss out on others this year? He IS the guy. There will always be guys like Glasnow and Hoskins available. There usually isn’t a guy like Otahni available. You can wait for a guy like him even if you miss out on a couple normal guys. 

[NorthsideAvenger]

I want Dodgers to miss out on Ohtani so that they can turn their attention to Yamamoto. Then sit back watch the out all war for Yamamoto between DODGERS/METS/YANKEES/giants.

“UPDATE: Per source (ME!), Shohei Ohtani is flying to Chicago this morning and is not expected to leave until a deal is signed and official. It’s happening, folks. Ohtani will be a member of the Chicago #Cubs”

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Probably flying commercial to avoid yesterday’s nonsense.
