guy was able to get into Ohtani's account and send money like that. While we need to see what the facts are after an investigation, this looks really bad for Ohtani. When was the last time you gave your "friend" access to your accounts that has your money in it? Not to mention it was accounts with millions of dollars in it.

From my 30,000 foot airplane view: Ohtani is guilty of gambling and if history is followed...he should be banned from MLB and join Pete Rose on the sidelines.

However, I don't think today's MLB has the stones of MLB past and there no way they throw him under the bus. They'll come up with some lame story and will explain it away. There's no way they get rid of a huge money maker for the game both domestically and internationally. It would also have huge impact for the Dodgers who will fight it tooth and nail.

It is what our society does today. No penalty for the rich and famous and powerful. Do what they want, explain it away, and continue on.
