Keep in mind the dodgers have scouted ohtani since he was in High school. They tried to sign him before he went to the fighters in japan, and when he came to mlb, he chose an AL team instead due to the dh rule, which let him pitch and hit on the same day. Now, with the dh in both leagues, he was more comfortable signing with the dodgers
The time that the NL adopted the DH should have been the time the Angels needed to bolster their roster and farm. This is an indictment on Moreno’s performance.
Shohei Ohtani did his best for Angels for six years. Thank you for your amazing performance. I look forward to your great performance in the Dodgers team
Dodgers have been Ohtani's favorite team since he was a high school student, and always aspiring to get him.I'm looking forward to his performance in the new team😀！
@@everythinglakers1713 Do you seriously have ZERO reading comprehension ability? Lol. He said ASIA, India is a COUNTRY IN ASIA. I exposed his ignorance AND YOURS.
They're right, it's not about the money for Shohei. But boy am I glad they gave him the contract he deserves. The man needs to be valued for all his worth. I hope the LA Dodgers become a good environment for him to play and grow. Love Shohei and I'm so excited to see him play again!
As a Dodger fan from LA living in Japan, I'm happy for this move since my Japanese little nephew is a big Ohtani fan, and we plan to take him to a Dodger game to see him the next time when we visit my hometown
It was Dodgers that continued its offer to Ohtani since he was 16 years' old. And when he announced the challenge to MLB, Dodgers again tried to get him but there was no DH rule in NL, so Ohtani decided to go to Angeles. Finally, the fate of both is now connected. Congrats to both!!
@@atlbraves1983Why exactly are you talking? Your team did almost the exact same thing last year? Phillies have owned your team these last 2 seasons. You’re just like the Dodgers. 💀
I used to be a big fan of Nomo #16 when I was a teenager. It’d be awesome if Ohtani wore #17 and kind of took on his legacy as the second most famous Japanese to wear Dodger blue.
Well when you get an entire country as a fanbase it’s really a pretty good deal at 70 mil a year considering the TV/merchandising deals they could work there. Also Shohei’s hometown is painting the entire town Dodger Blue…
@@joind4d It has been “America’s Pastime” for over 100 years and it used to be our biggest and most watched sport. Since the 1990’s it has slowly regressed to being the third most watched sport in America because the MLB does not know how to market their players. American Football is the most watched sport behind Basketball.
I’ll never understand why the Angels didn’t just trade Ohtani, Trout & Rendon at the deadline for a hoard of elite and complementary prospects and then tried to sign him now in the off-season. As a team, they’d have been a far more attractive looking team to lure Ohtani back & if they didn’t succeed, they’d at least be very well set-up for the future.
They still had a very small chance. I was 100% sure he was leaving for Dodgers by the end of the season, no matter what angels did. It certainly would have made things attractive but dodgers always reaching the playoffs could not have been matched with angels bringing any new untested talents. Ohtani certainly not betting his future in the hands of some rookies.
I’ve been a dodgers fan since I was 8 (I’m nearly 21 now), and admittedly I haven’t watched much regular season baseball. This may change that. Freeman, Mookie, Ohtani, oh my…
I watched a Japanese news yesterday about people lining up in front of a sporting goods store to purchase Dodger’s goods 2 hours before the store opened.😂 It’s already started 💙💙💙💙💙
I cannot believe and I know it wasn't arthritis that I was feeling and I felt it in my bones that he was going to be a dodger and I felt it in my bones that he was going to be a dodger I'm so happy that he is with us Andrew Freeman is a freaking genius and he is the man just like a Dr Jerry buss and I love the new Big 3 mookie Freddy shohei the new Showtime dodgers.👑💙💙💙💛💜🥇🐐🐐🐐🐐🧬💯💪👑👑👑👑👑🌎

I pray him all the best for the next ten years with the Dodgers without injures from Japan🙏
Shohei decides not for the money. That is a sure thing. He wants to continue to challenge for the further upper level, with a team that has good teammates working together to move forward. Dave Roberts with Japanese blood probably made Shohei feel comfortable to work with each other.
Shohei never cared about the money. Dodgers is his favorite childhood team. He wanted to play for the dodgers for free but they didnt allow 2way player so he signed with the Angels.
@@fernandoamy8278 he went to his childhood team. he was willing to play for $1mil but they said no to two-way player so he went to the angels. Now dodgers realized their mistake and owe up to him.
Obviously, we are not talking winning championships. People are referring to the Dodgers winning regular seasons games to consistently reach the playoffs.
Shohei Othani On The Los Angeles Dodgers, Wow! The Dodgers Now Have Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts, And Shohei Othani! Will Shohei Win NL MVP This Year?
Man looks like im gonna see a lot of othani dodgers jersey walking around Japan when i visit that country next year including myself. I wonder how much money Dodgers gonna generate to those apparels per annum in Japan alone.
But.....He is not getting $70 million every year. Some of it is deferred, but yeah your math is correct and that means tickets, concessions, parking, merchandise, etc....will be going up.
What Otani wants is to play baseball at the highest level in the world and win the World Series, and making $500 million or $700 million while he is active is not his top priority.
@@shamus3477he did bc he can. But bc that’s the only thing he wanted. You know the owners make more right? You have no problems having the owners keep the profits rather than giving it to the players? 😂😂😂
Well!, very well deserved!, well earned $700m for the best current player in baseball. For us who like baseball, we live baseball, we are passionate about baseball, we feel rejoiced by Shohei's success, we wish him success, that he continues to delight us with his talent... at a good time! long live baseball!
Such an amazing pitcher! No wonder he gets such a high salary 💰👍👍 - If you learn the Shurangama Mantra well, becoming one with it, you'll reach the mantra's samadhi, making your recitation uninterrupted like flowing water.

True dedication to the mantra transforms you into a high-level Buddha form, like those on the Buddha's crown. - the Venerable Master Hsuan Hua
I am Japanese. I hope the translation is correct. 10 billion yen for a half-way player, not just a one-way player, the Dodgers are very wealthy, aren't they? Or are they incredibly stupid?🤣🤣
If Babe Ruth knew how to throw the slider Ohtani learned in 2018 Ruth certainly would have whiffed more than 5 a game. Even Snell and Cole couldn't avg over a K an IP until 2018 when they learned the Roger Beshens Football Slider. There would be no Jon Gray throwing that Roger Beshens football slider in the WS or Ginkel, Sewald...that slider made everyone rich and famous. Glasnow, Musgrove, Taillon were all stuck in PItt 2018 when the were taught the Football Slider from Roger Beshens. Rodon wouldn't have the huge contract, there is no Matt Blake or Ethan Katz, they teach the Roger Beshens football slider, there is no deGrom throwing a 93 mph football slider or Bard, Diaz...HUNDREDS of guys throw the Roger Beshens Football Slider.
Just to anyone who mentions Mbappe’s deal- it doesn’t matter and doesn’t count. He’s getting paid to be a jester. Not a real athlete down in Saudi Arabia. It’s not a real sports contract. This is now the highest contract after Messi’s most recent one
Ohtani's mom said it doesn't matter how much her son is earning as a MLB player, she'll continue working as a part-timer as usual. Part-time worker in Japan: 8000−10000 yen a day (55-69 dollars) Ohtani as a Dodger: 1,150,000 yen (7938 dollars) PER MINUTE 😬

Many Japanese people have liked the Dodgers since Nomo was there. I hope Yamamoto ends up there.
😂
Seeing how the dodgers did maeda wrong I hope Yamamoto goes elsewhere
from Nomo,Japan is familiar with dogers I think,but this time competely country moves to support Dodgers overall
Dodgers have been Ohtani's favorite team since he was a high school student, and always aspiring to get him.I'm looking forward to his performance in the new team😀！
Huge contract for Shohei Ohtani, well deserved 👏👏👏👏
Greatest baseball player I've ever seen
Yeah, but that’s a lot of money to live up to & he’s not even fully fit. Dodgers may live to regret this..

I would like to know how the Dodgers courted Shohei.
they said Ohio
지난 2주간, 오오타니가 에인절스에 남아 줄지도 모른다는 기대를 했었다.
어쩔수 없다고 생각은 한다.
지난 3년간, 에인절스가 오오타니에게 준 실망을 생각하면 당연한 일이다.
하지만 오오타니가 에인절스에 남아 에인절스를 기적적으로 우승시켜주는 모습이 보고 싶었다.
'3년'이라 한 부분에 있어 몇 마디하자면, 첫해에는 에인절스도 오오타니에게 기회를 주겠다 한 약속을 지키고,
오오타니도 신인왕 등극으로 보답을 한, 서로가 서로에게 빚진게 없는 해였고.
19년과 20년은 오오타니에게 있어서 가장 힘든 해였기 때문에 제외했다.
