The Dodgers have long been considered one of the favorites to sign Japanese right-hander Roki Sasaki. They recently became the sixth team known to have an in-person gathering with Sasaki, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register.

In his recent “The Mayor’s Office” episodes, Casey has discussed the player movement around the league and touched on Soto’s impact. During those segments, he provided some dubious rationalization for Yankees fans on why losing Soto, who got 15 years and $765 million from the Mets, won’t hurt so much.
