Does this guy not realize Joe has more money than Ohtani??

Ohtani purposefully lived in dorms most his life and gave all his money to his mom for the majority of his career. It is SERIOUSLY doubtful he is gambling or involved in crime.

This is like me and my friends talking about rock climbing, a sport none of us have ever done, ever plan on doing, and ever plan on watching.

The guy is the best player in baseball you think he has the time to gamble. I believe he didn't know ippe was taking money out of his account

Christ Jaime could find the dumbest fucking things but an actual federal case he can't find lol

I like when Joe pretends he knows about the “mob”

Ohtani's contract is 10 years for $700 ($70M a year) but he's deferring ~97% of his salary ($68M a year) for 10 years so he'll "only" be paid $2M a year for the next 10 years (and only in 2034-2043 will be getting that $68M per year). I don't know, this doesn't sound like somebody with a multi-million dollar gambling problem to me (or maybe he's just gambling away all that lucrative New Balance money??).

@@oli.y I think it has something to do with MLB salary caps/luxury tax. If he agrees to a deferment, they can get more high value players without hitting salary cap and paying the luxury tax (to punish teams that try to "buy" a world series). I am not an expert by any means, but I think if they pay Ohtani when he's not playing for them they can avoid counting that 68M/yr towards the cap (thus allowing them to pay him and other players more in the long run since they are saving so much by not hitting cap).

This is the equivalent of Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin breaking down why Jon Jones hasn’t returned to UFC yet

100% he gambles the only reason he’s not in trouble is because he’s not American And the MLB needs the viewers.

All athletes hiring an interpreter and only saying "Me no engrish" 😅😂 Smart low key

His interpreter is a con man. He lied about working for the Red Sox. He got close to a guy that doesnt speak English and was able to talk his way into Ohtani's life and getting him to trust him, even with his money. I can see how Ohtani could've been fooled by him. Look at Fabia and how he got into Diego Sanchez's head. Even Tom Brady's guru Alex Guerrero is shady and i think used Tom. And now they have decided to part ways as business partners on the TB12 brand. Brady is going to rebrand.

even if true, no way mlb is letting their golden boy go down.

Yasiel Puig had Cuban gangsters after his ass

How did this thing go to Yakuza? Baseball players in Japan are rich they don’t need mob connections to come over here.

Baseball needs Ohtani more than he needs the MLB. MLB can get more money the more international superstars it has. The Dodgers did it with Jackie Robinson, then With El Toro Valenzuela, and now with Ohtani. They're expanding their brand.

1. He never owed 4.5 million at one time. He owed smaller amounts $500k at a time which he paid off. on several occasions. 2. How does the bookie know what the guys salary is. If he knew he was connected to Shohei there would be multiple reasons to let Ippei rack up a big debt. 3. He paid off his debts, so why wouldn't he keep letting him rack up more.

For the first time since I have been watching and enjoying your show, on this topic Joe, you don't have any idea of what you are talking about. Ohtani is possibly the greatest baseball player ever... you are just talking misconceptions without any facts.

He also has a NEW Garbage pail kid x MLB 2023 trading card.
