Recently, Japanese baseball star Shohei Ohtani has been the subject of much speculation regarding his future plans. While Ohtani has yet to make any official announcement, he recently expressed fondness for the city of Seattle during an interview with Japanese media.
The two-way player, who is currently a member of the Los Angeles Angels, was asked about his future plans during the interview. He refused to comment on the matter, but did express his admiration for the city of Seattle. He said that he was “impressed by the city’s beauty” and that he “enjoyed the atmosphere” during his visit to the city last year.
Ohtani’s comments have sparked speculation that he may be considering a move to Seattle. The Mariners are one of the few teams that have expressed interest in signing the Japanese star. They have already made several moves this offseason to clear salary space in order to make a potential signing more feasible.
While Ohtani’s future plans remain unclear, his comments have certainly added fuel to the fire. It is possible that he may be leaning towards a move to Seattle, but only time will tell. Until then, all we can do is wait and see what happens next.
