I just can’t wait to see what kind of cheddar he rakes in. I was thinking sixty mil per back around the all star break and I’m still leaning that way despite the surgery there’s just nobody like him out there so why not pay him that way. I admit id be much happier to see him stay in the AL but I’m betting he’ll be a Dodger. I just can’t wait to find out regardless

wow it was just posted, hes a twin

Where do y'all think he lands?
Supposedly Jon Morosi says that he'll sign within the week.
Personally, I predict the front runner (the Dodgers)
Not the Dodgers. The manager exposed that they talked and Otani sad if any team does that it's a no. So id assume not the Dodgers now.

We know he talked to every team he’s linked to so that would eliminate everyone.

@Jacky-Chan1 Lol, you think he would make a half a billion dollar choice and a career life decision based on something as petty as that? lol
-
He's staying in Anaheim
-
He is going to have a change of heart and play for the Mets since we will sign Yamamoto and have Senga.
-
Looks like the wait is over.

Or it could be one big elaborate..... hoax. No official signing today, maybe tomorrow, maybe next week, maybe after Christmas.... maybe.

Maybe? I know a lot of people have been saying that very thing in Dodger circles. I sure do hope that is true though.

JP is hardly a huge source but good for him if this is where he wishes to play. That is the best division in baseball by far and Toronto is a nice city so you can’t blame the guy if they’re gonna match the dollars.

absolutely - half of the american baseball teams are in horrible cities to begin with - for example, who wants to live in baltimore or detroit?

I’ve been to Los Angeles to watch the Dodgers. I’d take Toronto over LA any day although if we are talking where he would live I’m sure he’d have a mansion in Hollywood so that wouldn’t be much of an issue.

It’s about trust. He can’t trust Robert’s to keep a confidence now.
I’m wondering if Robert’s will lose his job over it.
Think about teams that go to the post season most often. Those are the front runners now. The Braves and Astros. Any other team, he may as well stay with the Angels. Too bad for the Dodgers -they would have has a great 2025.

@Blind_Bleeder You sound ridiculous.

I’m not sure it matters what he said since all he did was state the obvious. Nor do I necessarily think signing him matters all that much. Post season in the MLB since they keep expanding isn’t about the best team anymore. It’s about the hottest team at the right time. Let him go where he feels better. Maybe he doesn’t wanna pay obscene California taxes for half his games or even wanna live in the USA for all we know.

@TheHungryHole or St Louis, Boston, or either team in Florida.

Technically even when it was only division winners with no wild cards that could be argued to be the case.
Here is a case in point
1906 Chicago Cubs
116 wins, +323 run differential
The Tinkers-to-Evers-to-Chance team -- it remains infinitely charming that they once wrote songs about a double-play combination -- has the highest winning percentage in baseball history, at .763, winning 116 games and losing only 36. (With two ties. Ties happen when you have no lights.) It’s fair to say run prevention was the team’s strength: The team’s ERA was a collective 1.76. In the World Series, they played their crosstown rivals, the Chicago White Sox, a team so bad with the bat they were known as the “Hitless Wonders.” But they had plenty in this series, including 26 in the final two games to win the series 4-2.
