JammerHammer21 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Interesting point from Passan Not sure the status of most teams, but obviously it doesn't matter - if Otani is passing up all that money, a team that has bonus pool left (I know the Yankees do from their trades) isn't really in that much better position because a couple hundred thousand, or even a million (probably the max) is going to mean nothing to Otani. Of course, he might not actually end up posted, so we'll have to wait and see if this actually happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty It's so evil but I want it If Tanaka opts out (which I think he will), he's probably gone. I'd be stunned if the Yankees would want to pay him what it'll take to get him, and he's rebounded to the point where an opt-out seems likely. Otani for DH though. Or tell him that, and then say jk when they sign him. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelonebillsfan Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Ohtani could absolutely be a starting caliber COF that's the effed up thing lol. Dodgers are still the team to beat here, ESPECIALLY now that they have Darvish (his idol and a close confidant), initial money means nothing. There will be AHEM done to ensure he's properly compensated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Japanese media is going to be all over him, and his every move is going to be watched. I'm sure some apparel company will shell out big bucks to make sure he's wearing their stuff. MLB's probably going to be pretty damn diligent about watching what happens with him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I will say is all parties involved benefit from him being here and being happy about how he is being compensated. But yes he's already got some BIG bucks on the table from Mizuno and UA.

Thelonebillsfan Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Cash (obviously) wants him real bad. Yankees were a strong second before the season started, haven't heard his most recent leanings. But y'all are in it. I will just pray for a miracle that the Wilpon's contract the black plague and our new owner throws like eight brinks trucks at his house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 So does he play OF or pitch? Or does he try and do both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
