Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani continued his stellar stretch at the plate during Wednesday's game against the Washington Nationals. The two-way superstar went 3-for-4 at the plate with a stolen base during their 2-0 loss. This performance marked the 10th time this season that Ohtani has posted a multi-hit game. The 29-year-old is hitting .360 with four home runs and 10 RBI in 21 games this season.
The former interpreter for Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani is facing federal charges related to his alleged theft of millions from Ohtani, according to a source with direct knowledge of the investigation. Ippei Mizuhara, 39, is in negotiations to plead guilty and the investigation is racing toward a conclusion, according to the New York Times. Ohtani's attorneys alleged that he had been the victim of a "massive theft," and Ohtani himself said in a statement that he never bet on baseball or any other sports and had no knowledge of Mizuhara's alleged actions. The investigations are ongoing, but at this time, it doesn't appear that Ohtani is in any way or involved or potentially in line to face any kind of suspension from MLB. UPDATE: A federal criminal complaint says Mizuhara stole more than $16 million from Ohtani to pay for his illegal betting, and he's been charged with bank fraud.
Los Angeles Dodger designated hitter Shohei Ohtani had another nice game at the plate in Monday's 4-2 win over the Twins. Ohtani went 3-for-5 with two doubles, a solo home run, and a strikeout. The 29-year-old has been every bit as good as fantasy managers expected to start the season, slashing .345/.383/.673 with three HR, 12 runs scored, eight RBI, and a stolen base in 60 plate appearances. Ohtani continues to show why he is a top fantasy player even when he is only hitting.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (elbow) jumped ship in free agency this offseason, leaving a Los Angeles Angels team that hasn't reached the postseason since 2014 for the crosstown-rival club that's made 11 consecutive trips to the playoffs. Though Ohtani isn't expected to pitch again until 2025 after undergoing UCL surgery in late 2023, that didn't stop the Dodgers from signing the two-way wonder to a 10-year, $700 million deal, which constitutes the largest contract in baseball history. While Ohtani's 31.6% strikeout rate over 132 innings last season will be missed until he retakes the mound, his bat is expected to be available for Opening Day. Ohtani slashed .304/.412/.654 with an AL-high 44 home runs, 95 RBI, 102 runs scored, and 20 stolen bases across 599 trips to the plate, and his 1.066 OPS led the majors on the way to the second AL MVP award of his career. The 29-year-old phenom now links up with a star-studded lineup in L.A., with his stick figuring to be sandwiched in the two-hole between 2023 NL MVP runners-up Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman as the everyday DH at Chavez Ravine in 2024. Devoid of any holes in his fantasy skill set as a hitter, and perhaps with the hope that he will stay healthy not having to shoulder pitching burdens, Ohtani's redraft stock deserves peak value as a five-category stud. Don't be afraid to draft him as early as the middle of the first round, but Ohtani's ADP sits around the Round 1/2 turn as he hunts for the third MVP trophy of his distinguished career.
