sources: the twins are out on the ohtani derby, too.

Last I heard this afternoon, the Padres had not yet been informed whether they are in or out on Ohtani.

now

Per source, #Athletics also out on Ohtani, so not every west-coast team is in mix.

A's are out too...so not all of them

A's are out per Rosenthal

Sources briefed on Ohtani cutdown tell me "heavy West Coast" flavor to final list. #Cubs a possible exception along with SEA, SF, SD and both LA clubs.

the #Mets also were told they are out on Ohtani, the Post has learned.

sounded like it's west coast heavy as mentioned. that probably bodes well for both LA teams. when we say smaller market, we just may mean smaller than ny.

Just glad the Yankees are out lol

Is he supposed to start the year in the minors, or be up on Opening Day?

 

If he isn't in the majors, there's going to be a huge stink by his agents and the player's union. He's already signing for a fraction of what he should be getting.

Whoever signs him I bet will pull the Kris Bryant treatment to get that extra year.

But whoever signs him will surely extend him to a huge deal after a few seasons

That's going to depend in what MLB says

I guess I’ll be refreshing this thread for the next few hours until the Sox’s status is finally revealed.

Blue Jays, Pirates out

I think only clubs being told they are out are commenting on Ohtani. Jon Daniels has made no comment. Take that as you wish.

YEAH AND HAHN HASNT SAID ANYTHING EITHER

#DBacks also out on Ohtani, per source. Teams that have yet to acknowledge outcome include #Cubs, #Angels, #Rangers, #Padres. Possible indication they’re in; not confirmed.

Sure seems Beradino's source was correct

pirates are out on ohtani. field remains west coast heavy, though there may be an exception or 2.

Sure seems Beradino's source was correct

About what? Isn’t he the guy who said it was all west coasts teams expect the Cubs? Rosenthal’s tweet lists four teams and half of them aren’t West Coast teams. Not sure what that proves.

I don’t know why everyone is surprised that fathom wants the cubs to sign Ohtani

Oh stop, that joke is so 2 years ago. I do find it funny Tony was so quick to say I was wrong and then it quickly came out I might not be.
