Just want to point out.  That if I was hired as Shohei's interpreter, this would have never happened.  I also wouldn't be able to understand what he says, so would make shit up, so another form of plausible deniability for him.  And I don't bet on sports, outside of horses, so he would have been safe.  I would still have "borrowed" the $4.5 million for benders in Vegas though.  

I’m wondering if Ippei also didn’t really understand Shohei, and that’s how all of this happened.

What did Ohtani do when Mazuhara told him he had 4.5 mil in gambling debt?

Ippei'd it off.

I read this thread but had been in meetings all day and had not really had the chance to see how people were reacting on social media..  holy cow have people completely turned on Ohtani.

i really like how a lot of the big name media personalities are just running with ippei second story of ''it was all me guys i swear'' and not even mentioning he had two completely different stories only days apart. credit to espn for giving the full story.

also can only imagine most of japanese media and mlb and the doggie doo doo's will all be pushing that ippei's master theft tricks haven't been seen since the like of danny ocean and brad pitt

MLB will do its best to protect Ohtani. The real issue could be the feds.  Imagine if he's already been interviewed by them and has lied.

[Docwaukee]

Shohei's punishment as a Dodger?  

A stern lecture

Shohei's punishment if he were still an Angel?

Surgical removal of his left arm and 5 lost draft picks for the Angels

$100 says it's Ohtani and they're throwing Ippei under the bus as a scapegoat. 

How would an interpreter get his hands directly on the cash from Ohtani's paycheck to divert it in the first place? I assume that he gets a paycheck just like everyone else who provides a service. I can't imagine how this is even possible. Something just seems really off here.

Ohtani paid off the bookie, oops lawyer changes to his translator stole it.

I found a picture of Ohtani’s new translator.

Has he been kicked out of the league yet?

Looks like it: 

ESPN: Source: Ohtani likely to be suspended

Word will get out that Ohtani is a degenerate gambler!

Also that his marriage is a sham!

It turns out Ippei doesn’t even know Japanese. He was using Google Translate the whole time.

And that Shohei’s dog’s real name is “Three Team Parlay”.

Oh and he says the N-word with a hard ‘R’.
