An MVP, marriage, new team, the WBC, contract negotiations, injury, surgery, and betrayal. Shohei has had a roller coaster of an year
an year?
Now a WS ring completes the list!😂😂😂😂😂
Talk about betrayal! Et Tu' Ippei?
Soon, a down year(s) in baseball, divorce, trade rumors, Japan renouncing him, more injury, surgery and retired with a lot of What ifs.
Yeah, and you forgot the $700M paycheck.
Anyone who criticizes Shohei should try opening a bank account in Japan without any assistance and complete all tasks in Japanese.
It's actually very difficult.
I have an English native speaker family who is really good at Japanese, but she couldn't open a bank account on her own.
So I (a native speaker in Japanese) helped her, but I also failed to open a bank account for her, lol
I can’t imagine how Shohej has been feeling this week😢 He lost a person he trusted the most. They’re like brothers. It’s beyond shocking to him. We all know Shohei is the most genuine & amazing person on this planet and didn’t have to go through this nightmare. I hope this matter will be solved as quick as possible so that our Shohei can focus on baseball ⚾️. Whoever is behind this should be arrested. I think Ippei was manipulated by evil folks who wants to drag Shohei down.
Stop kissing ass omg our shohie pallette. 🤮
@YB-lotus
I agree!
1st : the timing of all the hoopla is suspicious. Day of the Seoul opening game. Days before MLB games.
2nd: Gambling is addictive and Ippei can’t just stop gambling just like that. Could this be some sort of “payment method” to offset a great deal of his debts? Ruin, Shohei, ruin Dodgers, in exchange for, let’s say, a million of his debt?
3rd: … reluctant to share this but… check out a video (Seoul game) of Shohei and Ippei in the dugout. Shohei was cluelessly joking with everyone and Ippei has this demeanor and smirk, unlike the usual Ippei. The second I saw it, I told people I was watching the game with that, that was a scary Ippei. Not the usual docile and attentive, Ippei.
It was almost like his new demeanor was forecasting what was about to happen after the game. Body language really can’t hide your truths.
4th: Lier and manipulative
In any kind of addiction, you learn to lie and manipulate to rescue themselves in situations--almost second nature . Ippei being “honest” and yet “evasive” that seemed to “protect” Shohei puts him in the “victim” spot and puts Shohei as the “real suspect “ - very typical manipulation and yet many are falling for this age old trick! April fools came early .
I trust and continue to trust Shohei's genuine dedication to the baseball, remembering his old interesting episodes. This is Shohei Ohtani, who asked his teammates of Nippon Ham Fighters, "what kind of fun would you have when spending time for drinking? I would think it is more meaningful to spend the time to play baseball" and who sent a video gift to his former Manager Kuriyama on the night of Christmas when everybody else was enjoying the night, the video which he recorded himself practicing on batting on that night.
I believe this guy, because his personality, his discipline somehow tells me that he is not that stupid to jeopardize his contract, his career chasing nothing.
That’s just an opinion. We want facts. Fact is his bank account is directly associated with an illegal bookie. Now we go from here.
@@adamcastillo4425It's RUclips comments. The majority of them are opinions.
Shohei, you’re loved by Dodgers fans. You’re a brave person and I’m sorry for you. I will be there opening day this Thursday and I look forward to watching you play. Much love ❤❤❤🧢⚾️
I can deeply empathize with his feelings of disappointment and betrayal. Hope this will be over soon. Stay strong Sho!
boo hoo...i call b.s....wait until investigations are over. ..then you can go back to rooting for the Tiffany's
You can hear Ohtani’s tone in disappointment and anger in his former friend.
Yup! I picked up on that too! Poor dude. What a let down. Not only lost what he thought was a trusted "friend" but then learned he lost millions of his hard-earned money!
I got none of that. He was emotionless. And just read his lawyer's statement that we all already know. He said nothing new. If he sincerely cared he would at least take questions. He is a fraud selling out his friend. Thats what's sad about it.
@@user-sc2px8tz8vSettle down Nancy.
bias dodgers fans think ohtani is innocent
@@user-sc2px8tz8vNah. He said he has notes in front of him, and he didn’t sound like he was simply reading off a pre written statement.
Never doubted Shohei.. his integrity intact.. let's go Dodgers!! Let's Go Shohei!
That’s it. So we should all believe whatever he said? We need the interpreter’s statement now.
He made a statement without answering any questions.
There's too many Shohei haters out there from jealousy, envy, racism etc. They'll be dissappointed...AGAIN! 🤣
For people wondering the interpreter name is Will Ireton who has been working with the Dodgers for a long time and he’s Kenta Maeda old interpreter.

thought it was Butt-Head
Nobody cares.

This is so incredibly sad… he not only lost money, but he lost a friend that he completely trusted…
Forget the friend he lost. He was never his friend. He's better of without that weasel in his corner
@@islander5858 Agree 100%, but the hurt and disappointment is still there. Talk about a let down. Poor Shohei. A lesson hard learned, indeed!

Shohei's new translator did an amazing job!!
How do you know? Do you speak Japanese?
@@KK-ji1rkI am bilingual, he did just fine
Honestly, not the best. Dodgers should have hired a more professional / technical translator for this particular more serious occasion.
I'm pretty sure he was Maedas old translator, right?
I hope this new translator will get better to support Shohei to the superb professional level where Shohei is. As a native Japanese, I became concerned a little bit as the new guy has missed out some nuances / details Shohei was mentioning....
“It’s near impossible to wire 4.5 million.”
People say this, but they don't realize how many people suffer from this kind of damage every year. They also don't realize that the closer someone is to someone, the easier it is to steal their password.
What a pathetic imagination.
Or that's just Jealous.
It's like people have never heard of embezzlement or spouses quietly syphoning cash without the other knowing.
@@ryansmith17s ?
Well done, Shohei. Used the correct chain of command to confront this issue.
いつでも冷静に話す大谷さんが、今日は怒りが感じられました。身の潔白を早く晴らしたいという気持ちも出ていたと思います。
心から信頼していた人からの裏切りは計り知れないし、ショックという一言で片付けられない事よく分かります。
ファンの私でさえ、大きなショックと悲しみでいっぱいです。
輝かしいシーズンの始まりだったはずが、こんな茨の道になるなんて…
心配でたまりませんが、なんとか乗り越えてくれることを願っています。ほとんどの人が大谷さんの事を信じ、応援していると思います。

Maedas old translator
@@theoriginaltapsbrings back memories
Isn’t he one of the analysts on the Dodgers staff and he’s just filling in as a translator since Tuesday
Yea but did u see shohei staring at him from time to time. Like I got my eyes on you!!!
@@bobbyw1074 there was quite a bit of uncertainty between them. I liked the little back and forth just clarifying what Ohtani meant
Its a tough spot he's in for sure. As a big time dodger hater i wish him the best, he is one of the faces of baseball and if he's not playing its bad for the sport.
That's what they said about Pete Rose too.
Shohei we all stand with you on this one! 👍🏽
As all of this was going on...i was just in shock and in disbelief ,NOT at the gambling allegations, but that people would actually think Shohei would actually participate in illegal gambling through an illegal bookie. The same guy who gave up hundreds of millions to play in the Majors....the same guy who gave his 150,000 homerun derby money to his staff..the same guy who picks up trash on the field....this guy who just got married...who eats, drinks, breathes baseball.. this guy who the baseball gods created to save baseball! No not this guy.. hell nah..
Yes, it would be out of character.
@@user-ll9qk2el4d Exactly. So tired of The Rush To Judgement Mentality. We're all biased to some degree regarding these allegations whether it's Political and the person being accused you can't stand, so many assume the worst. Or a player from a rival team, it is one of the hardest things to do, and that is not having an opinion till you really know something in the Now News Culture.
He looks pissed and embarrassed. Completely understandable.
You know shohei ohtani is legit down to earth. He got offered 700millions and instead of having all the girls, mansion, sports car and a trip to eipstein island, he married the love of his life instead😅
Sounds like the love of his life is going to spend a lot of lonely nights in bed by herself while Shohei is out in the back taking batting practice off the machine.
The only reason he got the 700 mill differed was to avoid California taxes while playing, so... he is very business savvy and sees years ahead in that matter, but got ripped off with 4.5 mill out of his account? don't buy it for a minute,
lol yeah right,no one even knew he dated women
we'll see
but you dont know if he went to Epstein Island
I stand 100% behind you Shohei! I have never doubted you!
DODGERS NATION is behind you SHOHEI.
Ohtani did it, and I hate the Dodgers. Yamamoto in OKC by mid-May "working on his mechanics."
For whatever it's worth I speak Japanese... Shohei came across here as very sincere, nothing inconsistent or uncertain, and his shock seems real too. If anything the translator (who still did a great job btw) understated how much Shohei is messed up over this. I'm inclined to believe him.
Shohei thanking his translator at the end was a nice touch. Dude is a class act.
He's reading a lawyers statement. He's not sincere at all. If he was he would actually talk. As nd take questions. Instead he tells us all the same storyline we read last week. No new information in there at all and no emotions shown .
It's nice of you to believe him but unfortunately he is completely lying
And it's extremely obvious as well
@@user-sc2px8tz8v stfu and go cry in the corner for all we care. People like you would blame him for covid.
@@user-sc2px8tz8v there’s no evidence aside from speculation to support that so no

We love you Shohei! We stand by you. Let’s go dodgers!
I could hear the sadness and betrayal in shohei’s voice, he’s absolutely innocent and I feel terrible that he had to deal with this and the betrayal of a friend
Not a dodgers fan but he comes across as sincere. Ippei needs to go to jail.
If this is true we should expect to see Ippei in handcuffs in due time. Since this would federal, I don’t think we’ll hear much until the investigation is completed.
No one has seen him since the Seoul Series.
大谷選手の様子を見る限り凄い精神力だと感じます。
Works for me - let’s play ball
That’s what I’m talking about, let’s get to business.
Heck yeah! Go Dodgers!
Heck yeah let’s go
bias dodgers fans think ohtani is innocent
😂😂😂😂
This is so traumatizing. It's like a death of someone he knew (figuratively. hoping not literally). I think we are all mourning of who we thought Ippei was because he was such a fixture in Shohei's life. I can't get over it and I'm just watching all of this. I can't fathom how Shohei feels, how Ippei's family and estranged wife feels. So painful and so sad.
The fact that he referred to ipei as ippei san says alot about sho
Ippei is older than Shohei.
In Japan, you must address older individuals using honorifics.
Yeah but if you have a close relationship, you drop the honorifics
This is the most formal settings in front of billions of people around the world. Not a locker room private conversation. Using San is required. @@FlipTCG
@@FlipTCG The senpai/kohai age respect is really strong in Japanese baseball culture from childhood to professional-level. I don't think Japanese players ever will drop the "-san" when they address somebody older than them. They may abbreviate the name or use the first-name, though. You hear younger players saying "Daru-san" for Darvish or Ichiro-san for Ichiro Suzuki.
If he just needs to show respect to older people(senpai), I think he uses Mizuhara-san, which is more normal way for Japanese to say someone’s name in such official and formal occasion.
But he said Ippei-san instead, like he always calls him.
Okay that's good enough for me. I believe you. Let just get back to watching good ball. Thanks.
He would have stood behind......I cannot comment on anything.....if he had anything to do with it. Stand up guy All of the big media was insinuating that Shohei was involved.
When something like this happens to you, you don't have to talk to the media. He did his research and talked to his lawyers and actually explained it very well.
Ohtani for MVP
extremely unfortunate situation. hope this is all resolved asap so that Shohei can focus on his game with out any anxieties or distraction from all the conspiracies out rn. now let’s play ball ⚾️ 💙🤍
Good thing is that Ohtani is married now and his wife will be in charge of handling his finances.
I wouldn't let any woman or man handle my money!!
If I were married to an American woman, I would agree with you!
If I were Shohei I'd keep a much closer eye on my finances, doesn't matter if he has a wife or not.
Keep your head up Shohei.
Let’s Go Dodgers!!!! 🧢⚾️
He isn’t the first superstar to be stolen from in this fashion, he’s not worried about the money, but the betrayal….. wow
Great job to the translator. There are some nuanced things missed though. The way Shohei chose the words seems to indicate he has people (likely including/or just Ippei) to handle payments, thus access to his accounts.
I could not even open an account if I lived in Japan and had to open a bank account and deal with all bank activities in other languages. I could not even check account information in Japanese. People who tried to blame him, could not imagine how hard it could be to live in another country. I understand he had to leave all to Ippei or other Shohei team members. Huge betrayal and such a tragedy. I feel for him.
Go Dodgers! Go Shohei! We believe in you!
It’s sad to lose a long time friend
It's not sad to lose a fake friend.
Very few people doubt this man and hopefully the truth and justice will prevail. LA Loves Shohei and wishes him the best in clearing his name and getting past this awful situation.
You cant know that. Most people who dont doubt him at Dodgers fans or just his fans. Until all the evidence comes it’s dumb to say ether way.

You can tell shohei is real, nothing to hide, straight facts!
I trust Shohei. He seems to be a stand up guy. I am willing to accept his word until shown otherwise
Ippei Mizuhara should have the book thrown at him. Shohei was badly betrayed.
Be careful pushing Ippei too hard. He might start snitching
Give Ippei Da Chair 💺⚡️
Otani is truly a kind-hearted person. I think it is because when describing the traitor, he used the third person at first, but changed to Ippei-san in the middle of the story. Ippei-san is the name by which Otani addresses him intimately. This suggests that Otani is not so much angry at Ippei as he is distressed by the hardship Ippei is about to undergo.
A friend helping a friend is honorable…a friend betrayed is sad. Go Shoehei stay 💪
Seemed genuine and makes sense that Ippei didn't reveal everything until after. It was hard to believe a friend would cover that much for gambling debt. His wife would kill him
I think he is more disappointed at his buddy rather than losing money. Which will probably come back to him.
Welcome back Will!
힘내라 오타니!! 한국에서 응원합니다!! 🇰🇷

Glad Ohtani had nothing to do with this situation. 👏💙

오타니 화나고 슬픈 얼굴 첨 본다 미소가 다시 오기를 기도합니다 😢😢😢😢
Americans, please believe in Ohtani.He's a really honest person.
In summary, Ohtani just said clearly:
*_"F¥ck you to all my haters._*
*_Rest assure that I'll be staying in MLB until I retire._*
*_And I'm going to win, not one, not two, but ten World Series championships with the Dodgers."_*
😆
I love this interpretation! I'll go with this as well! hahaha! Team Shohei, 100%! Now let's play ball!!!! LFG!!!!!
I heard it. He said it. I liked it.
And to all the Giants and Padres fans, domo arigato! 🤡
In all seriousness, this man should work on learning English. I know it’s not my place to tell someone that but it would save him so many headaches in the future. He’s played baseball here for 5 years, he is basically the face of the entire league and the league is in America and Canada. He could connect with his fans so much better and he could insure that nothing bad happens again due to a language barrier.
As a Braves fan we have been wanting Ronnie to speak English more for years and over the past few months he has finally begun to do interviews in English and it sounds just fine. Shohei could benefit a lot from this
@@jordanwhite8567 Just a simple tip. Before you suggest someone should learn english (or whatever for that matter) you should do a little research FIRST. Ohtani knows, understands and sepaks English. He chooses not to (as most of other non English speakers) in his press conferences trying to reduce misunderstandings, specially with the media.
I believe in you! Shohei！
The fact that there's not an army of lawyers around him lends a tremendous amount of credibility to his account of events.
He didn’t take any questions that’s why. Duh.
His lawyers are the ones that wrote this statement
I don’t know if people realize that in Japanese culture, you don’t lie. It is an island nation and so it is extremely important that you treat others with dignity and forthrightness. This magnifies the hurt that Shohei is feeling. As a Japanese American (third generation), I do register this feeling of hurt and betrayal almost to the point of tears. Shohei is a standup guy who married his longtime sweetheart (whom he recently referred to as “a normal Japanese girl”). I am now hoping he and his wife have a good and decent life. 😂
I don't need to speak Japanese to get how mad, frustrated, and hurt Ohtani feels. I hope this all gets investigated and his name is completely cleared. To all the haters, remember that here you are presumed innocent.

Now, play ball! Win a WS Ring!
Shohei would be a complete idiot to come out and give this type of clear-the-air type interview if he had anything to do with this garbage. The authorities are fully involved (not just MLB) and if he was involved it would come out in the end. The fact that he came out and did this type of interview and the Dodgers and his lawyers were fine to let him go out there and do this ... makes me believer he has nothing to hide. He was guilty of trusting the wrong people and being ignorant in regard to his finances. A costly life lesson ... but it's time to move on and Play Ball!
His lawyers are the ones that wrote this statement
@@masterofnone1481 as well they should, but in the end he clearly said what people were waiting to hear.
@@VictorHernandez-iv7vu WANTING to hear
Shohei ain’t going to trust too many people for sure from now on. He’s a very nice guy but maybe naive. But when you’re at his status, you have to be very careful.
@@masterofnone1481 The authorities and IRS is fully involved in this case. If he had anything at all to do with this there is no way in hell his lawyers and the team would have allowed him to get up there and clear the air like they did. Instead, they would have waited to make any statement in a court of law. Play Ball!
If there were any wrong doing on Shohei’s part, he trusted too much. He was too focused on baseball and baseball only, he made wide openings for people who want’s to take advantage of him. Either way, very proud of Shohei. 翔平君、理路整然と説明して大変立派でした。大変でしょうけど、もう心配せずに身体を大事に野球を楽しんで下さい。

Ohtani is too pure for this nasty world ❤
He’s a fricken Cheat ‼️
I believe Ohtani %100 and I’m sad and angry at Mizuhara for putting him in this situation
I'm glad that he talks before the home opening game, I totally believe Shohei Ohtani, it's sad and shocking to him😢, Ippei sucks😤 Let's go Dodgers 💙 Let's go Ohtani 🦄🤴💪⚾️
I can imagine that it's difficult for some Americans who do not know Ohtani's history and upbringing in Japan, including how he was even at the Angels to believe fully what Ohtani explained is believable and truth. But as a Japanese who have followed him in Japan and as he moved to MLB, I can attest to that what he said is 100% believable.
Ohtani since he was a young boy was very focused with specific goals set and worked diligently on the path to achieving them. His parents and especially his mother was instrumental in providing the support he needed so that he can focus 100% on his tasks (the baseball). This is why if you are a baseball fan in Japan, this is a very well known story and everyone in Japan know that Ohtani's mother took 100% control of his money (income and expenses) and the set up was simple for Ohtani in that she gave him monthly allowance of minimum amount of money. Ohtani used team dormitory to live and team supplied meals 100% to focus on baseball. This is how he lived in Japan as a NPB player era. Ohtani is known to be very frugal and does not spend money like normal pro athletes do. He is not interested in fashion, clothing, shoes, cars, basically not interested in tangible material stuff. Again, this is very well known in Japan about him.
Ippei Mizuhara was smart in that he put himself in the position with Ohtani to take care of all of his personal duties out side of baseball so that Ohtani can just focus on baseball as he did in Japan. The identical set up that he had with his mother. Ippei was a perfect man for it and Ohtani trusted him 100%. So in this context, it is very plausible and most likely the case that Ippei had this role (similar to the role Ohtani's mother had in Japan) for Ohtani since he became MLB player. Ippei is not just a translator for Ohtani. Ippei was essentially Ohtani's personal caretaker, personal assistant, consultant, butler, driver, shopper and a good friend who took care of all Ohtani's needs to start his life and live in the USA. He therefore had access to Ohtani's bank accounts and was probably helping him on setting up the payables, bills for his expenses etc etc. Don't forget, Ohtani has no experience managing his own money in the past, he is also oblivious to all the living expenses and set ups especially in the USA. Ippei was the perfect friend and paid worker for him to do these tasks for him. In this set up, Ippei can easily transfer Ohtani's money, even 4.5 million without Ohtani knowing (again, Ohtani has been very naive, trusting and indifferent about money matters, except that he knows that he has been getting 50 to 75 million per year on endorsements and baseball contracts even in the past years, so 4.5 million may not be so significant in this light and could not be noticeable if he was trusting Ippei to manage). Agent is there to deal with the baseball contracts and he is not Japanese so he would not have known his personal contents. This is why Ippei is said to have been paid upwards of $400,000 per year to work for Ohtani, where as a regular personal translator working 9 to 5 is paid $150,000ish for a pro-athlete.
So you guys take a rest on speculating and jumping to conclusion about Ohtani in this situation. Eventually the investigation will shed a better light on what I am talking about.

It's a relief to hear the truth, but no surprise - I couldn't believe that Shohei would risk everything to involve himself in gambling and the story from Ippei that Ohtani had paid his debts seemed a big stretch. I believe Shohei 100%. Now he can put this behind him - thankfully he can absorb the theft of 4 1/2 million better than most.
How do you know this is the truth?
@@masterofnone1481 I know because i had video and listening devices installed in both Ohtani's and Ippei's residences and vehicles for the past 2 years.
I trust Shohei more than Ippei based on these facts:
1. As a baseball unicorn he doesn't need to bet
2. If he bets, he wouldn't be that dumb to use his account to wire money like that.
3. Ippei as an interpreter has tried to create this image that he's a very close friend with Shohei, and I don't think we've ever seen an interpreter been walked so close to a professional athlete.
4. Shohei is too nice that's probably the main reason he's betrayed.
HOWEVER, the bank, THE BANK, needs to explain how the hell did that happened ASAP. I wouldn't keep my money to that bank if they don't fact check before wiring out 500k multiple times!
He sounds pissed off.
お忙しい中お疲れ様です。

大谷翔平は冒頭、「一平」という言葉を使いたがらず、「彼」と呼んだ。「名前を呼びたくない」という意思を感じた。どれほど強い怒りと悲しみを感じているのか、伝わってきた。会見中、声はいつもの翔平だけど、落ち着かないのかずっと体を動かしている。不安と緊張、苛立ちのマグマが高まっているのを、必死で抑えていたのだろう。それでも会見を終えた瞬間、新しい通訳に「ありがとう」と感謝を示したのは、翔平の人間性を表している。
We're on your side Shohei!
I was appalled when I heard the news. Knowing that he was scammed and the guy was stealing from his account blows my mind. This poor guy not only lost money but was also investigated by the FBI, and on top of all, he was betrayed by a friend. He just moved to the Dodgers. He must be exhausted!!! I hope he goes through the motions of this fast and continues playing without being marked by this.
Thank you for speaking up Shohei!! 明確に話していただき皆さん非常にスッキリしていると思います。 Wishing you a great season!
The biggest question still unanswered:
"How did Ipe get into your computer and then onto your bank account?"
2) If he had permission, how often was this a habit?
3) You never recognized that $4.5Mm was gone?
You are Dodger family now brother 💙, bright days ahead Shohei.
