IDK what rumors people are posting, but I like Yusei. He doesn’t deserve harassment
Leave Yusei and his family alone!
I follow Kikuchi on Instagram, his story posts are pretty chill; just him hanging out with his son and promoting his baseball training center in Japan. What sort of hate is his family getting?
Not sure what the rumors are but seems like it’s harassment targeted against his wife Rumi back home in Japan.
The only thing I can think of is someone being upset that he wasn’t able to recruit any of the NPB guys to the Angels, but I can’t imagine anyone being so invested in the Angels that they’d harass him over it.
At least we know it’s not about gambling losses at this time of year.
