Yoshinobu Yamamoto: A Hot Commodity in MLB Market
TL;DR Summary
The Los Angeles Dodgers enlisted the help of Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, and Freddie Freeman to make their pitch to Japanese free agent Yoshinobu Yamamoto. The Dodgers' presentation included video displays of Yamamoto in a Dodgers uniform, and they are among several teams vying for his services. Ohtani, who recently signed a 10-year, $700 million deal with the Dodgers, attended the meeting to help woo his former teammate. The Dodgers, who have already spent heavily this offseason, are well-positioned to absorb the potential posting fee and contract for Yamamoto. They are also working on a trade with the Rays for Tyler Glasnow and Manuel Margot.
