Ohtani became the first player in league history to tally 50 home runs and stolen bases in the same season, inventing MLB's 50/50 club. He accomplished that while recovering from UCL surgery, which prevented Ohtani from contributing on the mound last season, when he served as LA's designated hitter in 159 games played.

Ohtani once eschewed the Dodgers for the Angels, and got stuck in a six-year playoff drought. The Dodgers’ new Japanese rookie phenom Sasaki made a different call.

A new piece of evidence has come to light after the Dodgers star was deceived by his interpreter, who stole nearly $20 million.

LOS ANGELES ... then go yell at the … Angels. Maybe you’ve already forgotten – sometimes it feels like people have – but once upon a time, Shohei Ohtani turned down the Dodgers.

Ippei Mizuhara wasn’t just Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher and designated hitter Shohei Ohtani’s interpreter, he was also his confidant and managed a variety of things for the 30-year-old – from his finances to his daily errands.

Federal prosecutors released an audio recording in which they say Ippei Mizuhara impersonates Shohei Ohtani in an attempt to wire money from Ohtani's bank account.

Mizuhara allegedly had already obtained access to Ohtani's bank accounts and changed security credentials to give himself entry. The person on the tape tells the bank employee that he is Shohei Ohtani, then provides a phone number to the bank for authorization -- a number that prosecutors say belonged to Mizuhara.

Franchise players don’t come around too often. True superstars who capture not only local fans, but the league as a whole. The Los Angeles Angels landed theirs in the first round of the 2009 draft when they selected Mike Trout 25th overall.
