Column: Do you still believe in Shohei Ohtani? I'm not sure [View all]
It still doesn’t feel right.
It still doesn’t make sense.
No matter how much Shohei Ohtani and his advisors attempt to clean it up, something in all this gambling garbage still stinks.
When a smiling Ohtani strides on to the Dodger Stadium field for their home opener Thursday, I want to believe.
I want to believe the game’s greatest player is as pure as his image.
-------------------
But I just can’t. Not completely. Not yet. Maybe one day, but not now.
----------------------
Does Shohei Ohtani have a gambling problem, or a money management problem, or neither, or both?
Is Shohei Ohtani devious enough to throw his closest colleague under the bus to save himself, or was he simply naive enough to allow that colleague to fleece him for millions?
