    He can't sell the Dodgers. Shohei's contract includes a "key man" clause allowing him to opt out if Mark Walter or Andrew Friedman leave the franchise. Shohei IS the Dodgers for the next decade. Triggering that opt-out clause immediately collapses the valuation of the team.

    Well, if you call every player a dinkus, then the ones that are actually dinkus's, you will be right about them.

    Desperate men have made worse choices when the walls were crumbling around them. I think he will try to hold on to the Dodgers but may be left with no choice at some point. It's tough to say when we know so little about the nature of this investigation around him but I don't know that anything is ruled out at this point.
