Ippei fired by Dodgers after being accused of theft by Ohtani’s attorney’s

[SlappyUtilityMIF]

If they never went to Korea does Ippie get caught? Now you've got to ask yourself what does Ohtani know. And the last 6 years with the Halos a bunch of insider info was shared in Gambling. Health, lineups, starters? Putting TJ surgeries back to pad stats?

For the record, I think Arnie Hammer is a cool dude.

We need to know the full story on this one. 

Sure, as soon as you give us the full story on the Angels' offer to Blake Snell.

Fun fact: Shohei's attornies went after me for some journalism I did (unrelated to Shohei)... they are vicious and represent some really bad dudes (Prince Andrew, Armie Hammer, etc)

Interested in hearing more, if you can

Shohei on Epstein's island confirmed

[ScottM]

It was unrelated to Shohei, he just hired the same firm led by Andrew Brettler: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/03/31/oligarchs-data-privacy-law/

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

Ippei being the all time BBF and taking the fall for his man.

It doesn't get anymore romantic.

You should have shook his hand, Scott. That would start the clock on his ultimate demise!

The article referred to a man in Orange County.

Didn't read an article. I'm just replying due to previous knowledge of the KBO way back before 2016...

I mean, maybe not Arte, but with the Angels’ luck wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest if as more emerges the Angels somehow still wind up looking bad. 

6 years with the Angels no one noticed. Like 1 month with the Dodgers and he's busted...... Hmmmm!!

[angelsfan100]

this story doesn't smell right

[m0nkey]

Someone do the math, what is $4.5 million to Ohtani compared to us poor folk
