    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Police would be the ones to go after him criminally. Civilly, I wonder what the point would be. To get a million dollar judgment against a guy who probably has nothing and may never set foot in the US again? Why bother?

    It is my hope that significantly improved defense will help the pitching. (And that Masa not playing as much defense will help Masa).

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    You are right about access not proving guiltlessness. But, I dont agree about "monitoring access." As noted repeatedly, athletes and celebrities get ripped off or at least wildly spent by friends and hangers-on. Presumably, most of these folks had advisors. But I think it's naive to assume...

    Everybody Hates Draymond

    Or someone getting in his face and screaming nonsense inches from his mug like an insane person. "I'm going to shave your armpits and feed the hair to my armadillos!!" Some comedian in the 80s -- Goldthwaite, Lewis Black, I just cant recall -- said that the only thing subway crazies fear is...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    I have assumed that, based on this level of trust, Ohtani gave Ippei the "keys" to at least this account. (I disagree that he didn't care, or that "not caring" = "neglect," as he probably had people/agents/advisors looking after the bulk of his stuff). But if we change the destination of the...

    I cant imagine McAvoy playing the next night after an effort like last night.

    If I misinterpreted (or overinterpreted) the phrase "in over his head" (in the context of the rest of the post that used it) to refer to coaching acumen, rather than ability to talk to the press, then my bad. (But I don't think I did.)

    Which has close to zero correlation with his coaching ability. If you wish he'd shut up more, that's fine. YMMV. Plenty of unsuccessful coaches have talked a good game; and plenty of good ones have not.

    Inside Alex Cora’s Red Sox ‘culture change’ — Chemistry, competition, camaraderie (the 2024 manager thread)

    Reading (probably way too much) between the lines and engaging in serious psychobabble: The comment about "3 games out at the deadline both years and no changes" strikes me as coming from Cora. But -- and *not* to his credit -- I think he sorta gave up a bit after it happened last year. Maybe...

    Would you feel any better if he'd just come out and mumbled surly platitudes about "just whatever is good for the team." Then you'd have neither words nor head coaching available to make your evaluation. I think it's probably better to wait and see how he fucks up the first play in the first...
