   “He’s been told the Angels are Okamoto’s first choice of team to sign with and he has advised his agency to try to make that happen.”

   I obviously don’t know how reliable Adam Dodge and the [Angelswin.com](http://Angelswin.com) website is (I just listen to every Angels podcast on earth), but it is interesting to hear this.

2. He must love pain

3. Dude sounds like a maniac, do it

4. Did he stop watching the MLB in September of 2014?

5. This would be awesome he is much safer than Murakami.

6. Oh shit ADAM DODGE said that??

7. Hate his team the Yomiuri Giants, love that his favorite team growing up were my favorite NPB team the Hanshin Tigers and love that he loves my favorite team growing up the Angels…SIGN HIM ARTE YOU FUCKIN BASTARD!

8. I’m curious about what kind of endorsement Kikuchi would be giving to NPB guys about the org.

9. Absolute sicko

10. 🎶Why do you build me up (Build me up), Buttercup, baby
    Just to let me down? (Let me down)
    And mess me around. And then, worst of all (Worst of all) You never call, baby, When you say you will (Say you will)🎶

11. Am I the only one who has no idea who Adam Dodge is?

12. close enough, welcome back Shohei Ohtani

13. 

14. i don’t know if i want to sign a player who is clearly mentally unstable

15. I’m sure this has been said, but, Kurt Suzuki hiring could help in being Japanese players to the Angels. The Dodgers don’t have much room for new players, so maybe Suzuki and following Shohei’s path might be a benefit.

    Of course the problem still is whether Arti would pay them

16. But can he hit? (On this team specifically)

17. I don’t believe any rumors until the contract is signed. Everything is just clickbait and content farming. Just like the Blue Jays private jet, not going to fall into another one.

18. He’s naive like Ohtani was when he came here. He has no idea

19. I’m conflicted—should we tell him about Arte, or let him find out for himself?
