Ohtani's interpreter fired, 'massive theft' alleged

The interpreter for the Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani was fired Wednesday after questions surrounding at least $4.5 million in wire transfers sent from Ohtani's bank account to a bookmaking operation set off a series of events.

www.espn.com

Initially, a spokesman for Ohtani told ESPN the slugger had transferred the funds to cover Mizuhara's gambling debt. The spokesman presented Mizuhara to ESPN for a 90-minute interview Tuesday night, during which Mizuhara laid out his account in great detail. However, as ESPN prepared to publish the story Wednesday, the spokesman disavowed Mizuhara's account and said Ohtani's lawyers would issue a statement.

"In the course of responding to recent media inquiries, we discovered that Shohei has been the victim of a massive theft, and we are turning the matter over to the authorities," read the statement from Berk Brettler LLP.

This is taking some twists

So Ohtani didn't sign with Seattle because sports betting apps are illegal up here?

I said it in the Dodgers thread but the older I get the more I realize that most of our friends are really enemies. Give them enough time and they will try to destroy you

Sounds like most of them were soccer bets. Shohei might be a Manchester United fan, it’d explain why he lost so much

The villain arc for Ohtani just became that much more surreal.
