Roki Sasaki torn between Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres

Which team will Roki Sasaki choose to play for in MLB?

According to Bleacher Report, the battle for Sasaki goes beyond the millions of dollars:

While the Padres have made a great effort to position themselves as a real contender in their division, against much more competitive markets, such as the Dodgers or the Giants. Therefore, the two franchises are ready to go all out for a generational talent, such as the one experts believe he may have in MLB.

These teams are the current champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres. The Los Angeles team has been very successful in recruiting talent from the Japan Professional Baseball League and other international players

Two National League West rivals are the heavy favorites to land the services of Japanese baseball’s young pitching sensation Roki Sasaki, even though they have not even met with him

He added: “I know certainly the Mets can sell their pitching development, the Yankees tradition, the Cubs are basically a national team that has been successful with Japanese players. Texas is also recently a world champion with success with Japanese players, but I think the favorites, and I think the teams here, are the Dodgers and the Padres.”

On the other hand, the Padres have players such as Joe Musgrove and Manny Machado as they look to remain competitive in the division
