Shohei Ohtani’s free agency has yet to begin, but the San Francisco Giants are making it clear they want him as a teammate next year.
“I know that the Giants, (Los Angeles) Dodgers, and (Chicago) Cubs were all high on Shohei’s list when he first signed, but without the (universal) DH then, it just wasn’t realistic,” All-Star righty Alex Cobb said Tuesday, according to [**Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle**](https://www.sfchronicle.com/sports/giants/article/man-giants-love-shohei-ohtani-teammate-18286223.php). “Now that that’s gone, I think he wants to be in a place that is a big market and can sustain winning for a long time … and San Francisco has a big Japanese population.
“I absolutely could see that as the very possible outcome if we back the truck up enough.”

He’ll be a Dodger and everyone knows it.
I don’t want him to go to San Fran for the simple reason that the area is trashed and there’s no chance in hell I’m gonna go there
So then he is going to sign with the Yankees.
You’re all wrong… Ohtani is going to Inter Miami
