Shohei Ohtani’s situation is every sports league’s worst nightmare. $4.5 million wired to an illegal bookmaker from your star player’s account isn’t ideal stolen or not. The report that Ohtani’s interpreter never bet on baseball is EVERYTHING for the integrity of the game.
@RGIII what bookie is loaning out 4.5m to an interpreter making $300-500k? that part just doesn't make sense and then the story completely changed in the first 24 hours, makes a lot of the other details questionable, like whether there were bets on baseball
@RGIII MLB doesn’t have lift a finger. Look for Federal charges. Might be awhile. If it heats up- you might see Ohtani go back to Japan to try and avoid the Feds. Baseball is the least of his worries.
@RGIII You really believe it was his interrupter betting? SMH. MLB will have to come clean or they will cover it up.
@RGIII The games are all rigged!! The NFL was “pristine” a few years ago. Now they promote online bets, make picks & even help fans make selections. It’s all rigged. The NFL refs are compromised as well as every other league! You can’t see it?!
@RGIII Ohtani def did that shit interpreter being a good friend taking the fall. He going to be there when Ohtani go into the hall of fame. Baseball doesn’t care but needs to keep the charade up why Pete Rose still banned.
@RGIII He’s in trouble
@RGIII It’s not illegal to place bets with an “illegal” bookmaker.
