With today's plea in the criminal proceedings against Ippei Mizuhara and the conclusion of both federal and MLB investigations, the Dodgers are pleased that Shohei and the team can put this entire matter behind them and move forward in pursuit of a World Series,
The organization was rocked by the scandal during the Seoul Series in March as reports surfaced of Mizuhara participating in illegal sports gambling with a Southern California bookmaker.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and several of Ohtani's teammates publicly voiced their support and belief that Mizuhara acted in a shroud of secrecy.
The federal investigation ultimately discovered Mizuhara gained access to Ohtani's bank account and changed communication settings in order to take full control of transfers without being detected.
