Shohei Ohtani had his introductory press conference with the Dodgers and spoke to the media for the first time. He spoke on why he chose the Dodgers, why his contract was structured the way it is, his dog's name and what he thought about all the speculation around his free agency. There was also some thoughts from Andrew Friedman and others. Also, the Dodgers appear to have a trade in place for Tyler Glasnow and Manuel Margot in exchange for Ryan Pepiot and Jonny DeLuca. We evaluate the trade and the new information that it is contigent upon a Glasnow extension.
