San Diego Padres pitcher Yu Darvish is not happy that multiple Japanese stars have signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
San Diego Padres ace Yu Darvish has reportedly been disappointed with several baseball stars from Japan following Shohei Ohtani to the Los Angeles Dodgers rather than joining him and signing with the Padres, according to Yuri Karasawa on theDarvish is hoping this is not the case with top pitching prospect Roki Sasaki, who will be posted by the Chiba Lotte Marines sometime this offseason.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto was the most notable name to sign with the Dodgers after Ohtani joined the team. It's, of course, more disappointing for these stars to sign with the Dodgers than another team since the Padres and Dodgers are National League West rivals. The rivalry between the two teams became even more contentious this season as the two teams briefly battled for the division and later faced each other during the NL Division Series, which the Dodgers came back to win.
