Ohtani on his way to Toronto

[i'm_lucky]

He doesn’t have to live there in winter if he doesn’t like it. But I’m pretty sure he grew up in very similar climate to Toronto

I don’t think the gap in market size is something that really matters now. Toronto is not LA, but it is certainly “big enough.”

Maybe, personally I don't think Toronto is big enough for a player like Ohtani... it's a crappy city with major issues on many fronts. He probably would be better off in Vancouver if they had a team, plus the higher Japanese population there. We'll see what happens...

Good if you get him

But I don't think not getting him is the end of the world

His value is a little bit overblown at this point

A few days after re-signing reliever Joe Kelly to a one-year, $8 million deal, the Dodgers asked if he would be willing to change his uniform number, which just so happens to match Shohei Ohtani's, per USA Today's Bob Nightengale.

Not your fault

You have credible sports journalists and publications basically saying it’s a done deal
